Mobile App Updated: Show Inbound Flight (kinda)
FYI - The AA mobile app has been updated. Main new feature is showing the inbound equipment in your flight info screen.
It will be great to judge/guess the timing of your flight's departure.
BUT... doesn't seem to work quite right with the DFW-HKG and HKG-DFW pairing, since the inbound plane doesn't turn back out, but it shows it that way (probably dealing with planes that overnight?)
Also a caution: Especially at hubs, AA may switch your flight to another plane to keep your flight on schedule.

However, both the full HTML website and the mobile website continue to be broken if you try to view incoming aircraft info. When you bring up a flight status and click the link for incoming aircraft, it sends you to an airport code lookup page. Been that way for several weeks.
