Default AA Ground all MD80!

As of 3:20 pm central time All American Airlines MD80 aircraft have been grounded pending mx inspections. When the official news is released to me, I will post it here. Expect Further updates as I get them... Right now, it seems that the grounding was the direct resutl of some sort of wiring issue.

Sure begs the question of why we haven't grounded any of ours at Alaska Airlines.
