Item 1.01 Entry Into a Material Definitive Agreement

On July 3, 2007, American Airlines, Inc. ("American"), a wholly-
owned subsidiary of AMR Corporation, entered into a Stock
Purchase Agreement (the "Purchase Agreement") between American
and certain other major air carriers as sellers (the "Sellers"),
ARINC Incorporated, a Delaware corporation ("ARINC"), and Radio
Acquisition Corp., an affiliate of The Carlyle Group, as the
purchaser (the "Purchaser").  ARINC is a provider of
transportation communications and systems engineering.  The
Sellers collectively hold more than 90% of the common stock of
ARINC.  Under the Purchase Agreement, American and the other
Sellers have agreed to sell to the Purchaser all of the common
stock held by the Sellers in ARINC.  The sale of ARINC to the
Purchaser is expected to close prior to October 31, 2007.
American expects to receive, upon closing, proceeds of
approximately $194 million for its ARINC shares, and to record a
gain on such sale of approximately $140 million.   The closing of
the transaction is subject to the satisfaction of a number of
conditions, many of which are beyond American's control, and no
assurance can be given that such closing will occur.
