That doesn't seem right. That would seem to be one of the most important safety functions that without, the plane would not be acceptable for flight. I highly doubt this.

Don't tell that to me...Tell that to the AA pilot..He said it..apparently it has to do with the airplane being rated to fly on one engine or something..I don't remember so don't hold me to it...but it was something like that..

I heard it too. Since Airbus 300-600 is rated to fly fully fueled on one engine there is no fuel dumping capability in the Airbus 300-600. If there is fuel in the bay, it probably came from a rupured tank.
