A very worthwhile cause. I sent my contribution in already. I urge all members to dig in their wallets and help the Capt. out as much as possible.

Finally had time to log-on and peruse the boards....found this interesting. The item mentioned is operation Christmas Child...Thousands of Sunday school youngsters take shoeboxes and fill them with small useful items and small toys for children aged 3-10 as I recall. Then they wrap them and mark...

To supplement what FWAAA and FA Mikey mentioned above, I seem to recall that AA negotiated purchase rights( same as options??)for several hundred more 737 airframes later on. Now those options may have been shoved so far forward now that they are not in the financials..I dunno. (also some of...

Cute poem NHBB!! This could be quite interesting as he knows all the weaknesses of the airline business( very short haul flying into very crowded airports) The trick would be to find a way to finally intergrate short rail to long haul air also. My bet is that he comes up with a workable plan...

I just don't see how AA is going to use the entire fleet of 757's in just leisure markets. What about thinner trans-cons? Are they all going 738's or are they going to bring the 762's back from the desert for such routes as SFO-BOS? AS a customer, I think if they start putting LRTC757's into...

As a customer and investor in AMR I have wondered about this as well. As I recall there are/were 8 767-200ER aircraft in the fleet. (someone correct me if I am recalling incorrectly) I would think some of the examples in above posts warrant consideration for these aircraft(ie:CO)on thinner...

Thanks TWAnr and N905 AW, you came closest to answering my question. My thinking was along the lines of ..is there an accelerated rretirement of the F100 since the extra MD-80's will be available shortly? As a customer, I am sorry about the TWA folks, you had a great run....best of luck to you...

[FONT=Arial]Last week I flew thru the STL hub, and have another round trip in Sept. with a cnxn there also. My question to someone in AA is this....with the drawdown at STL later this fall, will some/many/all of the ex-TWA MD-80's be shifted over to AA to expedite the retirement of the F100's...

Good Morning...I was wondering if anyone can shed light as to why the 3rd FAT-DFW roundtrip has been cut as of Sept.03. It had just started on June 14, and was in Sabre months in advance (My self and a number of business assoc. had tickets on those flights this fall). As far as I had heard the...

As a customer wathing all this unfold, one (of many) thing comes to mind...I recently read somewhere that there are 50 some odd F-100''s yet to be taken out of service for cost/fleet comonality, etc. That means just to maintain something close to current flying about 50 replacement aircraft have...

As a customer that has flown thru (& to) STL several times this year I would agree a downsizing would be a shame. However, I''d rather have service to many of the smaller/mid cities on ERJ and CR7''s than none at all.( I''d rather be on an AA RJ than SW) I would guess that a downsizing of...

Just wondering, with UAl closing IND Maint., would the State of Indiana/City of Indy be involved in trying to get AA to move the MCI operation to IND?

At the first opportunity, UA needs to have a new image..hopefully one that matches the "new" airline it will be. THe current over use of blues and greys is getting old. I would suggest somethin along the lines of the current "U" combines with a retro look mentioned above by someone. I personally...

Several of you have it correct...we cannot justify to our managment the 2000.00 fares any longer. I have noticed more rational pricing in some markets as I make travel plans for March & April. If you can keep most prices under $1000, closer to 500-600 for most last moment ytrips, then you will...

Yes,Captain you are a class act. You have mail.
