Just an update to post AA's e-mail in reply to my letter on this matter.
We deeply regret the discovery of an individual reportedly "stowing away" aboard one of our flights. We share your distress over this loss of life and appreciate your concerns as they relate to aircraft security. A complete investigation is underway to determine what occurred. We are doing all possible to ensure the safe operation of each and every American Airlines flight.
