Item 8.01 Other Events
American Airlines, Inc., a wholly owned subsidiary of AMR
Corporation (AMR), is filing herewith a revised AMR Eagle Eye
report (the "Report"). This Report is being filed to correct two
errors that were contained in the AMR Eagle Eye report filed with
a form 8-K on June 22, 2005 (the "Prior Report"). The first
error relates to page three of the Prior Report, "Below the Line
Income/Expenses." The sentence has been revised in the Report to
indicate that the estimate of "Total Other Income/Expense" is for
the 2005 second quarter, rather than the 2005 first quarter. The
second error relates to the third page of the Prior Report, "AA
CASM Excluding Regional Affiliates and Fuel." The estimate for
2005 (Forecast) has been changed to 7.35 cents from 7.36 cents.
These revisions are reflected in the Report being filed with this
report on form 8-K. There are no changes to the other
information set forth in the Prior Report.
SIGNATURE
Pursuant to the requirements of the Securities Exchange Act
of 1934, the registrant has duly caused this report to be signed
on its behalf by the undersigned hereunto duly authorized.

Statements in this report contain various forward-looking
statements within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities
Act of 1933, as amended, and Section 21E of the Securities
Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, which represent the Company's
expectations or beliefs concerning future events. When used in
this document, the words "expects", "plans," "anticipates,"
"indicates," "believes," "forecast," "guidance," "outlook" and
similar expressions are intended to identify forward-looking
statements. Forward-looking statements include, without
limitation, the Company's expectations concerning operations and
financial conditions, including changes in capacity, revenues and
costs, future financing plans and needs, overall economic
conditions, plans and objectives for future operations, and the
impact on the Company of its results of operations in recent
years and the sufficiency of its financial resources to absorb
that impact. Other forward-looking statements include statements
which do not relate solely to historical facts, such as, without
limitation, statements which discuss the possible future effects
of current known trends or uncertainties or which indicate that
the future effects of known trends or uncertainties cannot be
predicted, guaranteed or assured. All forward-looking statements
in this report are based on information available to the Company
on the date of this report. The Company undertakes no obligation
to publicly update or revise any forward-looking statement,
whether as a result of new information, future events or
otherwise. This document includes forecasts of unit cost and
revenue performance, fuel prices, capacity and traffic estimates,
other income/expense estimates, and statements regarding the
Company's liquidity, each of which is a forward-looking
statement. Forward-looking statements are subject to a number of
factors that could cause the Company's actual results to differ
materially from the Company's expectations. The following
factors, in addition to other possible factors not listed, could
cause the Company's actual results to differ materially from
those expressed in forward-looking statements: changes in
economic, business and financial conditions; the Company's
substantial indebtedness; continued high fuel prices and the
availability of fuel; further increases in the price of fuel; the
impact of events in Iraq; conflicts in the Middle East or
elsewhere; the highly competitive business environment faced by
the Company, with increasing pricing transparency and competition
from low cost carriers and financially distressed carriers;
historically low fare levels and fare simplification initiatives
(both of which could result in a further deterioration of the
revenue environment); the ability of the Company to reduce its
costs further without adversely affecting operational performance
and service levels; uncertainties with respect to the Company's
international operations; changes in the Company's business
strategy; actions by U.S. or foreign government agencies; the
possible occurrence of additional terrorist attacks; another
outbreak of a disease (such as SARS) that affects travel
behavior; uncertainties with respect to the Company's
relationships with unionized and other employee work groups; the
inability of the Company to satisfy existing financial or other
covenants in certain of its credit agreements; the availability
and terms of future financing; the ability of the Company to
reach acceptable agreements with third parties; and increased
insurance costs and potential reductions of available insurance
coverage. Additional information concerning these and other
factors is contained in the Company's Securities and Exchange
Commission filings, including but not limited to the Company's
Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2004.
This Eagle Eye provides updated guidance for the second quarter
and the full year 2005.
Performance Update
Costs: For the second quarter, AA Mainline unit costs are
expected to average 10.05 cents and consolidated AMR unit costs
are forecast to be 10.53 cents, with a fuel price of $1.65 per
gallon.
Revenue: Second quarter mainline unit revenue is expected to
increase between 6.2% and 7.2% year over year. Consolidated
second quarter unit revenue is expected to increase between 5.3%
and 6.3% year over year.
Liquidity: We expect to end the second quarter with a cash and
short-term investment balance well over $3.5 billion, including
approximately $500 million in restricted cash and short-term
investments. This balance includes the effect of a $75 million
dollar pension payment, made during June.
