Crew News sessions are tantamount to those daily live-TV "rallies" that Hugo Chávez used to conduct.
(And just like in Venezuela, people, as in the Training Center staff, used to be required to attend.)
Management uses these dog and pony shows to tell employees either what they want to hear, and/or what management wants them to hear.
A reliable source at Airbus has said that AA's A350 delivery positions are being sold to other customers.
I wouldn't waste my time studying the flows on that aircraft type any time soon...

Watching the last crew news video I thought just the opposite. Not giving away too much here but all he kept saying was we have the order on the books and it didn't sound very convincing at all. You don't have to read too much into it and I bet those A350's are history.

It takes a looooooong time.
