The Airbus 300's are gone. They didn't hang around long after the tail fell off one and it crashed near NYC (I think).
Airbus blamed AA and AA blamed Airbus. I though that would have burnt bridges but obviously not. It turned out the NTSB blamed the pilot (or first officer) for "excessive rudder imput"
