I closed my Citi AA Platinum Visa in September 2014.
I closed my Citi AA Executive MC in February 2015.
I currently have open a Citi AA Select Amex which was opened over 24 months ago.
What personal Citi AA cards can I apply for (and when) to still receive a bonus? Is it correct that I would earn the bonus on the Citi AA MC if I applied now?
Thanks.

The 25K Gold MC application page was dead but the Landing Page went to a new Application page with the same language, so I updated the wiki.

Applied using link #9 and was instantly approved 
. My first instant approval in years! I've never had an AA MC, and my AA Visa was closed 10/2013 and AA Visa opened 7/2013 and still open. Also an AA Exec from 3/2014. Fingers crossed I get the bonus. I already have over 500k AA points, I just wanted to grab one before they changed the language to exclude all prior versions of the card. Now on to hotel points.

Each one is a different product now. Seems a definite new policy, I'd be very surprised if they changed course anytime soon.

I'll take a screenshot of the MC language just in case they get sheisty.

link 9 approved instantly.
many exec cards in last year...
Brugge... i hope yer right that I'll get the bonus!
Thanks!
Was gonna go for a TY product, but my last premier card was still open somehow <18 months ago even though I had cancelled and had fee refunded 6 months prior to that! I guess it pays to double check that accts are closed that they claim to close?
Don't want to mess with Prestige yet, gonna do that one in the summer I think closer to when I would book hotelz. Maybe a 4th night in Santorini?

Forgot to add, unlike Chase and Barclays, Citi won't care how soon you cancel a new card. Untold numbers of us have gotten the AA EXEC card over and over, some people 10 times or more, made the min spend the first payment period, and canceled as soon as the AA points appeared in our AA accounts without paying any AF. How does Citi react to this? They give us a instant approval for another one. 
But don't try this with Chase or Barclays.
With them it's best to keep all cards open at least until the AF is about to post. And put some spend on each card every month. It doesn't have to be huge spend, but some reasonable spend, every month. That way they consider you a "good customer" and are motivated to give you more cards.
Citi however doesn't seem to notice what you do.

With Citi, as you say, apply earn, burn, cancel and repeat as much as you can.

Housekeeping note: I updated the wiki to remove one dead 50K offer (#6). Have added a note that #10, also dead, should remain as a placeholder until offer #11 is added. (Otherwise, the next offer added would also be number #10, creating potential confusion.)
I tested all the other landing/app links for accuracy & live status. Everything checks out.
