American Airlines: 
Why are we diversifying the fleet again…? The A320 is a good airplane..but I thought we would stay with the Boing fleet …Haven’t we discovered years ago that having so many different “brands’ increases our overall expenses such as training of cockpits crews, F/As training, maintenance, compatibility of spare parts and storage of significant number of different A/C parts…? Why are we doing it again..? Have we not learned yet…?
Where are the DC-10 Photos?
