Ooooh.........that's a good one.

They certainly could make room for them at the schoolhouse. Of course, I'd think being in Chapter 11, they'd have to get approval for that expenditure from the court.

At any rate, that would seem to indicate AMR would intend to operate those jets in house and then of course, they'd have to lay down major bucks for an order of airplanes to go with the sims. AA already has a fleet captain and training manager going through Airbus training in Miami, yet curiously hasn't ordered any sims for the bus as far as I heard. Now, they've ordered sims for an aircraft they have no orders for and no fleet support structure at either AA or AE ?

Hmmmm..........
