Not very good publicity for you American Airlines lovers but this armed agent boarded two American flights that day. He was checked by the police prior to the flight by three separate police officers who escorted him through security to the gate. When his first flight was canceled due to mechanical problem, the agent moved two gates over to another American Flight where all the prior customers were being shifted. He boarded that flight. Upon storing his caryon he went back to the cockpit to introduce himself to the 2nd Captain of the day. This captain upon seeing he was armed Arab-American claiming to be secret service agent asked him to deplane while they checked his identity. This he willingly did.
If you really think about this, American not only bumpbed a Secret SErvice agent off the flight, they allowed an armed potential terrorist on two of their flights in one day. That ought to make all Americans more comfortable about their flying safety.
You seem to have a bone to pick with American Airlines. Sounds personal.
