Parker says:
"American hasn't done anything that makes the main cabin product less desirable than it was before"
"If customers complain enough about tight seating space, American would change. He says that hasn't happened"
Planespotters.net puts 12 active 7M8s in the AA fleet. Figure at least three flights a day (they should be on the longest 738/7M8 routes, logically) so that's about 4,000 people daily having the joy of 30" seat pitch. Make it a FlyerTalk challenge: fly a 7M8 and write to Parker complaining about (non-F, non-MCE) seat pitch.
