NEW YORK, Nov 15 (Reuters) - US Airways Group, Inc. (LCC.N: Quote, Profile, Research) on Wednesday said it had made a merger proposal with Delta Air Lines Inc. (DALRQ.PK: Quote, Profile, Research) under which the companies would combine upon Delta's emergence from bankruptcy.

The proposal would provide about $8 billion of value in cash and stock to Delta's unsecured creditors, US Airways said. Delta creditors would receive $4 billion in cash and 78.5 million shares of US Airways stock with an aggregate value of around $4 billion based on Tuesday's closing stock price.
