I found a live ACARS log for today and it is Flight 71 from frankfurt - It doesnt give me what has happened cause I wasn't online at that time. Though Now I've looked...It was going to DFW but now it is only going MAN-DTW for some reason :confused:

Found a new flight tracker UK http://www.flightstats.com/go/FlightStatus/flightStatusByFlight.do;jsessionid=A7657D25487E79358BE88190A 58D6E25.ned:8012?airline=%28AA%29+American+Airlines&flightNumber=71&departureDate=2007-12-24&x=1&y=6

I hate to know how much it would cost AA for this not to mention all that fuel in the sea.
