    AA Story on CBS News Tonight (Feb. 1)

    I assume this will air at 6:30 PM in New York.



    The Tulsa Base and M&E will be featured on the CBS Evening News with Katie Couric, Thursday, February 1 at 5:30 PM Central Time.

    The story line shows how AA is working with its employees to keep its maintenance in house, securing third-party work and taking a different path than other airlines. Bill Whitaker, CBS news reporter, toured the Tulsa Base on Monday, January 29, and interviewed Carmine Romano, Dennis Burchette and several employees.
    goals.
    And I, I took the path less traveled by
    and that has made all the difference......yet...
    I have a feeling a handle of people are going to be very interested in what I post in the near future.

    Could have saved trouble of sending a reporter and film crew out and simply taken highlights from the CNBC show from a couple of months ago

    As far as using CNBC's footage:

    CBS: NBC:: Pan Am: TWA

    Agreed, CNBC already did this, I guess CBS can't come up with its own stories...

    Oh but they have come up with a story. "....its maintenance in house, securing third-party work and taking a different path than other airlines..."

    They turned down a story to cover Southwest. Low fares are all too common these days ;)

    It's nice to see an airline that doesn't have to outsource its maintenance to El Salvador in order to be profitable.
