2011-1 Pass Through Trusts
Pass Through Certificates, Series 2011-1

American Airlines, Inc. is creating two separate pass through trusts that will issue American Airlines, Inc. Class A and Class B Pass
Through Certificates, Series 2011-1.

Each Certificate will represent an interest in the assets of the related pass through trust. The proceeds from the sale of the Certificates will
initially be held in escrow and will thereafter be used by the pass through trusts to acquire the related series of equipment notes to be issued by
American on a full recourse basis. Payments on the equipment notes held in each pass through trust will be passed through to the holders of the
Certificates of such trust. Distributions on the Certificates wil be subject to certain subordination provisions described herein. The Certificates do
not represent interests in, or obligations of, American or any of its affiliates.

The Class A Certificates will rank generally senior to the Class B Certificates, subject to the distribution provisions described herein.

The equipment notes expected to be held by each pass through trust will be issued for each of (a) 15 Boeing 737-823 aircraft delivered
new to American from 1999 to 2001, (b) six Boeing 757-223 aircraft delivered new to American in 1999 and 2001, (c) two Boeing 767-323ER

aircraft delivered new to American in 1999 and (d) seven Boeing 777-223ER aircraft delivered new to American from 1999 to 2000. The
equipment notes issued for each aircraft will be secured by a security interest in such aircraft. Interest on the issued and outstanding equipment
notes will be payable semiannually on January 31 and July 31 of each year, commencing on July 31, 2011, and principal on such equipment
notes is scheduled for payment on January 31 and July 31 of certain years, commencing on July 31, 2011.

Natixis S.A., acting via its New York Branch, will provide a separate liquidity facility for each of the Class A Certificates and Class B
Certificates, in each case in an amount sufficient to make three semiannual interest distributions on the outstanding balance of the Certificates of
such Class.

The payment obligations of American under the equipment notes will be fully and unconditionally guaranteed by AMR Corporation. The
Class B Certificates will be subject to transfer restrictions. They may be sold only to qualified institutional buyers, as defined in Rule 144A under
the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, for so long as they are outstanding.

The Certificates will not be listed on any national securities exchange.

Investing in the Certificates involves risks. See "Risk Factors" beginning on page S-21.

Neither the Securities and Exchange Commission nor any state securities commission has approved or
disapproved of these securities or determined if this prospectus supplement or the accompanying prospectus is truthful
or complete. Any representation to the contrary is a criminal offense.

PRESENTATION OF INFORMATION
These offering materials consist of two documents: (a) this prospectus supplement, which describes the terms of the Certificates that we are currently offering, and
(b) the accompanying prospectus, which provides general information about us and our pass through certificates, some of which may not apply to the Certificates that we
are currently offering. The information in this prospectus supplement replaces any inconsistent information included in the accompanying prospectus. To the extent the
description of this offering varies between this prospectus supplement and the accompanying prospectus, you should rely on the information contained in or incorporated
by reference in this prospectus supplement. See "About this Prospectus" in the accompanying prospectus.
In this prospectus supplement, references to "American," the "Company," "we," "us" and "our" refer to American Airlines, Inc. and references to "AMR" refer to our
parent, AMR Corporation.
We have given certain capitalized terms specific meanings for purposes of this prospectus supplement. The "Index of Defined Terms" attached as Appendix I to this
prospectus supplement lists the page in this prospectus supplement on which we have defined each such term.
At varying places in this prospectus supplement, we refer you to other sections for additional information by indicating the caption heading of such other sections. The
page on which each principal caption included in this prospectus supplement can be found is listed in the foregoing Table of Contents. All such cross-references in this
prospectus supplement are to captions contained in this prospectus supplement and not the accompanying prospectus, unless otherwise stated.
SPECIAL NOTE REGARDING FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS
This prospectus supplement, the accompanying prospectus, any related company free writing prospectus and the documents incorporated by reference herein and
therein contain various "forward-looking statements" within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "Securities Act"), and
Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the "Exchange Act"), which represent our expectations or beliefs concerning future events. When used
in this prospectus supplement, the accompanying prospectus, any related company free writing prospectus and the documents incorporated herein and therein by
reference, the words "expects," "plans," "anticipates," "indicates," "believes," "forecast," "guidance," "outlook," "may," "will," "should," "seeks," "targets" and similar
expressions are intended to identify forward-looking statements. Similarly, statements that describe our objectives, plans or goals, or actions we may take in the future, are
forward-looking statements. Forward-looking statements include, without limitation, our expectations concerning operations and financial conditions, including changes
in capacity, revenues, and costs; future financing plans and needs; the amounts of our unencumbered assets and other sources of liquidity; fleet plans; overall economic
and industry conditions; plans and objectives for future operations; regulatory approvals and actions, including our applications for antitrust immunity with other
oneworld alliance members; and the impact on us of our results of operations in recent years and the sufficiency of our 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 prospectus supplement, the accompanying prospectus, any related company free writing prospectus and the documents incorporated by
reference herein and therein are based upon information available to us on the date of this prospectus supplement or such document. We undertake no obligation to
publicly update or revise any forward-looking statement, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise. Guidance given in this prospectus

supplement, the accompanying prospectus, any related company free writing prospectus and the documents incorporated by reference herein and therein regarding
capacity, fuel consumption, fuel prices, fuel hedging and unit costs, and statements regarding expectations of regulatory approval of our application for antitrust immunity
with other oneworld members, are forward-looking statements.
Forward-looking statements are subject to a number of factors that could cause our actual results to differ materially from our expectations. The following factors, in
addition to those discussed under the caption "Risk Factors" in this prospectus supplement and other possible factors not listed, could cause our actual results to differ
materially from those expressed in forward-looking statements: our materially weakened financial condition, resulting from our significant losses in recent years; very
weak demand for air travel and lower investment asset returns resulting from the severe global economic downturn; our need to raise substantial additional funds and our
ability to do so on acceptable terms; our ability to generate additional revenues and reduce our costs; continued high and volatile fuel prices and further increases in the
price of fuel, and the availability of fuel; GDS disputes; our substantial indebtedness and other obligations; our ability to satisfy certain covenants and conditions in certain
of our financing and other agreements; changes in economic and other conditions beyond our control, and the volatile results of our operations; the fiercely and
increasingly competitive business environment we face; potential industry consolidation and alliance changes; competition with reorganized carriers; low fare levels by
historical standards and our reduced pricing power; changes in our corporate or business strategy; extensive government regulation of our business; conflicts overseas or
terrorist attacks; uncertainties with respect to our international operations; outbreaks of a disease (such as SARS, avian flu or the H1N1 virus) that affects travel behavior;
labor costs that are higher than those of our competitors; uncertainties with respect to our relationships with unionized and other employee work groups; increased
insurance costs and potential reductions of available insurance coverage; our ability to retain key management personnel; potential failures or disruptions of our computer,
communications or other technology systems; losses and adverse publicity resulting from any accident involving our aircraft; interruptions or disruptions in service at one
or more of our primary market airports; the heavy taxation of the airline industry; changes in the price of AMR's common stock; and our ability to reach acceptable
agreements with third parties. Additional information concerning these and other factors is contained in our and AMR's filings with the Securities and Exchange
Commission (the "SEC"), including but not limited to our and AMR's Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended March 31, 2010, June 30, 2010 and
September 30, 2010 and our and AMR's Annual Reports on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2009.
