So then are you saying that this woman is not telling the truth? Because I'm watching this show now and according to the show, the FAA confirmed that there were 22 flights that came within less than 1000 feet of one another, some less than 300 feet. They also say that none of these controllers responsible for those planes have been disciplined in any way. And frankly, that is making me seriously reconsider flying through DFW anymore.
If THAT doesn't concern AA, then I'm not quite sure what would.

I would be astounded if this (or anything else I read or hear in the media) turned out to be true.
