Re: Dlombard's question, I did not catch the plane's registration number.

Back to pdxer's comments, I think the reason you didn't see #1995 listed on etour is because it only flies on Saturdays. However, now that I look on etour for #1995 next Saturday, I see it is also listed as an M83 rather than M80. Does this mean it is an old TWA plane? I thought you could always tell those by the flight number, 2800 to 3199.

The flight numbers 2800 to 3199 refer to flights on planes that have not been converted to the AA operating certificate (still flown in TWA configuration with TWA procedures) - and some of the planes (like the one you were on) are indeed ex-TWA planes that have been converted and have been moved over the fence to AA's operating certificate. Too bad they didn't hook up the power.
