Item 5.   Other Events

On November 19, 1998, American Airlines, Inc., a Delaware
Corporation and wholly-owned subsidiary of the AMR Corporation
("American"), Bonanza Acquisitions, Inc., a Nevada Corporation
and a wholly-owned subsidiary of American ("Bonanza") and Reno
Air, Inc., a Nevada Corporation ("Reno") entered into an
Agreement and Plan of Merger pursuant to which American agreed to
acquire Reno in a two-step transaction.

On November 24, 1998, Bonanza commenced a cash tender offer, (the
"Offer") to acquire all of the issued and outstanding shares of
(i) Common Stock, par value $.01 per share (the "Reno Common
Stock") of Reno at a price of $7.75 per share and (ii) Series A
Cumulative Convertible Exchangeable Preferred Stock, par value
$.001 per share (the "Reno Preferred Stock") of Reno at a price
of $27.50 per share, in each case net to the seller in cash.  The
Offer expired at midnight on December 22, 1998.  On December 23,
1998, Bonanza accepted for payment all shares of Reno Common
Stock and Reno Preferred Stock validly tendered and not withdrawn
prior to the expiration of the Offer.

On February 22, 1999, the merger of Bonanza with and into Reno
was completed, with Reno as the surviving company.  Reno is now a
wholly-owned subsidiary of American.  As a result of the merger,
each share of Reno Common Stock was converted into the right to
receive $7.75 per share and each share of Reno Preferred Stock
was converted into the right to receive $27.50 per share, other
than those shares of Reno Common Stock and Reno Preferred Stock
cancelled in the Merger.
