      prior to the receipt of such proceeds and less the amount of any drawings
      previously paid by MBIA in respect of principal on such Series G Equipment
      Note) plus accrued and unpaid interest on the amount of such reduction at
      the Stated Interest Rate for the Class G Certificates for the period from
      the immediately preceding Regular Distribution Date to such Special
      Distribution Date;

               (iii) with respect to the Special Distribution Date established
      by reason of the failure of the Subordination Agent to have received a
      Special Payment constituting the proceeds of any Series G Equipment Note
      or the related Collateral, as the case may be, during the twenty-one (21)
      month period beginning on the last date on which full payment was made on
      such Series G Equipment Note (the date of such payment in full, the "Last
      Payment Date") as to which there has been a failure to pay principal or
      that has been accelerated subsequent to the Last Payment Date, the amount
      equal to the outstanding principal amount of such Series G Equipment Note
      plus accrued and unpaid interest thereon at the Stated Interest Rate for

      with respect to such Series G Equipment Note at the end of such twenty-one
      (21) month period and at least five (5) days prior to such Special
      Distribution Date, the Deficiency Amount shall be an amount equal to (A)
      with respect to such Special Distribution Date the scheduled principal and
      interest payable but not paid on such Series G Equipment Note (without
      regard to the acceleration thereof) during such twenty-one (21) month
      period (after giving effect to the application of any drawing paid under
      the Class G Primary Liquidity Facility and any withdrawal from the Class G
      Primary Cash Collateral Account or the Above-Cap Account, attributable to
      such interest on such Series G Equipment Note) and (B) thereafter, on each
      Regular Distribution Date following such Special Distribution Date as to
      which a Policy Provider Election has been given in respect of such Series
      G Equipment Note, and prior to the establishment of an Election
      Distribution Date or a Special Distribution Date pursuant to the
      immediately succeeding clause (iv) with respect to such Series G Equipment
      Note, an amount equal to the scheduled principal (without regard to the
      acceleration thereof) and interest payable on such Series G Equipment Note
      on the related payment date;

               (iv) following the giving of any Policy Provider Election, with
      respect to any Business Day elected by MBIA upon twenty (20) days prior
      notice (which shall be a Special Distribution Date) and upon request by
      MBIA to the Subordination Agent to make a drawing under this Policy, an
      amount equal to the then outstanding principal balance of the Series G
      Equipment Note as to which the Policy Provider Election was given (less
      any drawings previously paid by MBIA in respect of principal on such

      G Equipment Note) and accrued and unpaid interest thereon at the Stated
      Interest Rate for the Class G Certificates from the immediately preceding
      Regular Distribution Date to such Special Distribution Date;

               (v) with respect to any Special Distribution Date which is an
      Election Distribution Date, an amount equal to the then outstanding
      principal balance of the Series G Equipment Note as to which such Election
      Distribution Date relates (less any drawing previously paid by MBIA in
      respect of principal of such Series G Equipment Note) and accrued and
      unpaid interest thereon at the Stated Interest Rate for the Class G
      Certificates from the immediately preceding Regular Distribution Date to
      such Election Distribution Date; and

               (vi) with respect to the Final Legal Distribution Date, any
      shortfalls in amounts available to the Subordination Agent after giving
      effect to the subordination provisions of the Agreement and to the
      application of any drawing paid under the Class G Primary Liquidity
      Facility in respect of interest included in the Final Distribution, any
      withdrawal from the Class G Primary Cash Collateral Account in respect of
      interest included in the Final Distribution and any withdrawal from the
      Above-Cap Account in respect of interest included in the Final
      Distribution in accordance with the Agreement, for the payment in full of
      the Final Distribution (calculated as of such date but excluding any
      accrued and unpaid premium) on the Class G Certificates.

            For the avoidance of doubt, no Deficiency Amount described in
clauses (i)-(vi) above or payment to be made in respect of an Avoided Payment
described below shall constitute an accelerated or acceleration payment.

            If any amount paid or required to be paid in respect of the Insured
Obligation is voided (a "Preference Event") under any applicable bankruptcy,
insolvency, receivership or similar law in an Insolvency Proceeding, and, as a
result of such a Preference Event, the Beneficiary, the Class G Trustee or any
Class G Certificateholder is required to return such voided payment, or any
portion of such voided payment made or to be made in respect of the Class G
Certificates (including any disgorgement from the Class G Certificateholders
resulting from any such Insolvency Proceeding, whether such disgorgement is
determined on a theory of preferential conveyance or otherwise) (an "Avoided
Payment"), MBIA will pay an amount equal to each such Avoided Payment,
irrevocably, absolutely and unconditionally and without the assertion of any
defenses to payment, including fraud in inducement or fact or any other
circumstances that would have the effect of discharging a surety in law or in
equity, upon receipt by MBIA from the Beneficiary, the Class G Trustee or such
Class G Certificateholder of (x) a certified copy of a final (non-appealable)
order of a court exercising jurisdiction in such Insolvency Proceeding to the
effect that the Beneficiary, the Class G Trustee or such Class G
Certificateholder is required to return any such payment or portion thereof
because such payment was voided under applicable law, with respect to which
order the appeal period has expired without an appeal having been filed (the
"Final Order"), (y) an assignment, in the form of Exhibit D hereto, irrevocably
assigning to MBIA all rights and claims of such Beneficiary, the Class G Trustee
or such Class G Certificateholder relating to or arising under such Avoided
Payment and (z) a Notice of Avoided Payment in the form of Exhibit B hereto
appropriately completed and executed by the Beneficiary, the Class G Trustee or
such Class G

                                      -3-
<PAGE>
Certificateholder. Such payment shall be disbursed to the receiver, conservator,
debtor-in-possession or trustee in bankruptcy named in the Final Order and not
to the Beneficiary, the Class G Trustee or such Class G Certificateholder
directly unless such Beneficiary, Class G Trustee or Class G Certificateholder
has returned such payment to such receiver, conservator, debtor-in-possession or
trustee in bankruptcy, in which case such payment shall be disbursed to such
Class G Certificateholder, the Class G Trustee or the Beneficiary, as the case
may be.

            Notwithstanding the foregoing, in no event shall MBIA be obligated
to make any payment in respect of any Avoided Payment, which payment represents
a payment of the principal amount of the Class G Certificates, prior to the time
MBIA would have been required to make a payment in respect of such principal
pursuant to sub-paragraphs (ii)-(vi) of the definition of Deficiency Amount in
this Policy; provided, further, that no payment of principal under this Policy
on any Distribution Date, other than with respect to an Avoided Payment, shall
exceed the Net Principal Policy Amount (as defined below) for such Distribution
Date; provided, further, that no payment, other than with respect to an Avoided
Payment, of a Deficiency Amount shall be in excess of the then outstanding Pool
Balance of the Class G Certificates and accrued and unpaid interest thereon at
the Stated Interest Rate on the Class G Certificates. This Policy does not cover
(i) any premium, prepayment penalty or other accelerated payment, which at any
time may become due on or with respect to any Class G Certificate, (ii)
shortfalls, if any, attributable to the liability of the Subordination Agent,
the Class G Trust or the Class G Trustee for withholding taxes, if any
(including interest and penalties in respect of any such liability) or (iii) any
failure of the Subordination Agent or the Class G Trustee to make any payment
due to the Class G Certificateholders.

as a foreign corporation in good standing in the jurisdictions in the United
States of America in which it has intrastate routes, a principal office
(including the jurisdiction in which its principal place of business is located)
or major overhaul facilities, except where the failure to be so qualified would
not give rise to a Material Adverse Change to American.

            (b) Corporate Authorization. American has taken, or caused to be
taken, all necessary corporate action (including, without limitation, the
obtaining of any consent or approval of stockholders required by its certificate
of incorporation or by-laws) to authorize the execution and delivery of each of
the Operative Agreements to which it is a party as of such date, and the
performance of its obligations thereunder.

            (c) No Violation. The execution and delivery by American of the
Operative Agreements to which it is a party as of such date, the performance by
American of its obligations thereunder and the consummation by American of the
Transactions contemplated thereby, do not and will not (a) violate any provision
of the certificate of incorporation or by-laws of American, (b) violate any law,

constitute any default under (other than any violation or default that would not

respect of, (a) any trustee or other creditor of American and (b) any Government
Entity, other than (i) such as are required under the Securities Act, the Trust

and delivered by American on or prior to such date have been duly executed and
delivered by American and, assuming the due authorization, execution and
delivery thereof by the other party or parties thereto, constitute the legal,
valid and binding obligations of American and are enforceable against American
in accordance with the respective terms thereof, except as such enforceability
may be limited by bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, receivership,
moratorium and other similar laws affecting the rights of creditors generally
and general principles of equity, whether considered in a proceeding at law or
in equity, and subject to principles of public policy limiting the right to
enforce the indemnification provisions contained herein, insofar as such

proceeding is now pending or, to the actual knowledge of American, threatened,
against American, before any court, governmental body, arbitration board,
tribunal or administrative agency, which is reasonably likely to be determined

American with respect to American's most recent fiscal year included in
American's most recent Annual Report on Form 10-K filed by American with the

the period then ended have been prepared in conformity with GAAP and present
fairly in all material respects the financial condition of American and its
consolidated subsidiaries as of such date and the results of its operations and

been no Material Adverse Change in such financial condition or operations of
American, except for matters disclosed in (a) the financial statements referred

any filing or recording of any document (including any financing statement in
respect thereof under Article 9 of the UCC) is necessary in order to establish
and perfect the Mortgagee's first priority perfected security interest in such
Aircraft (subject only to Permitted Liens as defined in the related Indenture),
as against American and any other Person claiming by or through American in any
applicable jurisdictions in the United States.

is defined in Article 9 of the UCC) of American is located at Fort Worth, Texas.

            (j) No Default. On the Closing Date, no event which would constitute
an Event of Default (as defined in the Indentures for the Aircraft) and no event
or condition that with the giving of notice or the lapse of time or both would
become such an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing.

            (k) No Event of Loss. As of the Closing Date no Event of Loss has
occurred with respect to any Airframe or any Engine which is Collateral under
any Indenture executed as of the Closing Date, and to the actual knowledge of
American, no circumstance, condition, act or event has occurred that, with the
giving of notice or lapse of time or both would give rise to or constitute an
Event of Loss with respect to any Airframe or any Engine.

            (l) Compliance with Laws.

                  (a) American is a Citizen of the United States and a U.S. Air

            the appropriate Government Entities necessary to authorize American
            to lawfully engage in air transportation and to carry on scheduled
            commercial passenger service as currently conducted, except where
            the failure to so hold any such license, permit or franchise would
            not give rise to a Material Adverse Change to American.

                  (c) American is not an "investment company" or a company
            controlled by an "investment company" within the meaning of the
            Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended.

which American is a party as of their respective dates nor any other material
information relating to the Aircraft or the operations or financial condition of

material respect when made. American has no knowledge of any circumstances that
could reasonably be expected to cause a Material Adverse Change with respect to

material respects the financial condition of the Policy Provider and its
subsidiaries as of such date and for such six-month periods in accordance with

Policy Provider in the section of the Offering Document contained therein
captioned "Description of the Policy Provider" does not purport to provide the
scope of disclosure required to be included by the Securities Act with respect
to a registrant in connection with the offer and sale of securities of such
registrant. However, the section does not contain any untrue statement of a
material fact and does not omit to state any material fact required to be stated
therein or necessary to make the statements therein, in light of the
circumstances under which they were made, not misleading.

            (i) No Litigation. There are no actions, suits, proceedings or
investigations pending or, to the best of the Policy Provider's knowledge,
threatened against it at law or in equity or before or by any court,
governmental agency, board or commission or any arbitrator

which, if decided adversely, would materially and adversely affect its ability
to perform its obligations under the Policy or this Insurance Agreement.

            (j) Compliance with Law, Etc. No practice, procedure or policy
employed, or proposed to be employed, by the Policy Provider in the conduct of
its business violates any law, regulation, judgment, agreement, order or decree
applicable to the Policy Provider that, if enforced, could result in a Material
Adverse Change with respect to the Policy Provider.

and expenses (without duplication of amounts paid to the Policy Provider in
respect of the Operative Agreements), in connection with (i) the enforcement,
defense or preservation of any rights in respect of any of the Operative

Provider is an "Indemnitee" for purposes of Section 4.02 in each Participation

however, any exclusion contained in any Participation Agreement related to any
representation or warranty by any Indemnitee other than the Policy Provider or
its Related Indemnitee Group (as defined in each Participation Agreement), the
failure by any Indemnitee other than the Policy Provider or its Related
Indemnitee Group to perform or observe any agreement, covenant or condition in
any of the Operative Agreements, the acts or omissions involving the willful
misconduct or gross negligence of any Indemnitee other than the Policy Provider
or its Related Indemnitee Group or any other action or omission of any Person
other than the Policy Provider or its Related Indemnitee Group shall not apply
to the indemnification obligations of American to the Policy Provider and to the
extent not paid, all money due under this Section 3.04 shall constitute Policy
Provider Obligations (as defined in the Intercreditor Agreement).

            Section 3.05 Procedure for Payment of Fees and Premium.

            (a) All payments to the Policy Provider hereunder shall be made in

and such extension of time shall be included in computing interest, commissions
or fees, if any, in connection with such payment.

            (b) Unless otherwise specified herein and without duplication of any
other amounts owed to the Policy Provider hereunder or under the Policy Fee

Policy Provider makes a Policy Provider Election, the Policy Provider shall, on
the first Business Day (which shall be a Special Distribution Date) that is 21
months after the last date on which full payment was made on the first Series G
Equipment Note as to which there has subsequently been a failure to pay
principal or that has been accelerated, endorse the Policy, if not already
endorsed, to so provide for the payment to the Class G Primary Liquidity
Provider of interest accruing on the outstanding drawings in respect of the
Class G Primary Liquidity Facility from and after the end of such 21-month
period as and when such interest becomes due in accordance with such Primary
Liquidity Facility.

            Section 3.07 Payment by Subordination Agent.

            (a) All of the fees, expenses and disbursements set forth in
Sections 3.02 and 3.03(c) shall be payable by American as provided in such
Sections. To the extent of American's failure to pay any such fees, expenses and
disbursements, the Subordination Agent shall pay such amounts pursuant to the
Operative Agreements.

            (b) Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, all payments to
be made by the Subordination Agent under this Section 3.07 shall be made only
from the amounts that constitute Scheduled Payments, Special Payments or
payments under the Operative Agreements, including Section 4.02 of the
Participation Agreements, and only to the extent that the Subordination Agent
shall have sufficient income or proceeds therefrom to enable the Subordination
Agent to make payments in accordance with the terms of the Intercreditor
Agreement. The Policy Provider agrees that with respect to payments to be made
by the Subordination Agent (i) it will look solely to such amounts to the extent
available for distribution to it as provided in the Intercreditor Agreement, and

            (a) Neither American nor the Subordination Agent shall grant any
waiver of rights or agree to any amendment or modification to any of the
Operative Agreements to which

                                       14
<PAGE>
either of them is a party which waiver, amendment, or modification would have an
adverse effect on the rights or remedies of the Policy Provider without the
prior written consent of the Policy Provider so long as the Policy Provider
shall be the Controlling Party, and any such waiver without prior written
consent of the Policy Provider shall be null and void and of no force or effect.

            (b) To the extent permitted by law, each of American and the
Subordination Agent agrees that it will, from time to time, execute, acknowledge
and deliver, or cause to be executed, acknowledged and delivered, such

      amendment or other modifications of, or waiver, with respect to any of the
      Operative Agreements or the Certificates;

                  (ii) any exchange or release of any other obligations

      against presentation of a certificate or other document that does not
      strictly comply with the terms of the Policy;

                  (vi) any failure of American to receive the proceeds from the
      sale of the Certificates; and

                  (vii) any other circumstances, other than payment in full,

defense to the performance of their respective obligations herein each of the

liability of American for any payment hereunder.

            (d) No failure by the Policy Provider to exercise, and no delay by
the Policy Provider in exercising, any right hereunder or in the Operative
Agreements shall operate as a waiver thereof. The exercise by the Policy
Provider of any right hereunder shall not preclude the exercise of any other
right, and the remedies provided herein to the Policy Provider are declared in
every case to be cumulative and not exclusive of any remedies provided by law or
equity.

            (e) Nothing herein shall be construed as prohibiting any party

in its rights under this Insurance Agreement and to enter into contracts of
reinsurance with respect to the Policy upon such terms and conditions as the
Policy Provider may in its discretion determine; provided, however, that no such
participation or reinsurance agreement or arrangement shall relieve the Policy
Provider of any of its obligations hereunder or under the Policy or grant to any
participant or reinsurer any rights hereunder or under any Operative Agreement.

            (c) Except as provided herein with respect to participants and
reinsurers, nothing in this Insurance Agreement shall confer any right, remedy
or claim, express or implied,

                                       16
<PAGE>
upon any Person, including, particularly, any Class G Certificateholder, other
than the Policy Provider against American, or American against the Policy
Provider, and all the terms, covenants, conditions, promises and agreements
contained herein shall be for the sole and exclusive benefit of the parties
hereto and their successors and permitted assigns. Neither the Class G Trustee
nor any Class G Certificateholder shall have any right to payment from the
Premium paid or payable hereunder or from any amounts paid by American pursuant
to Sections 3.02 or 3.03.

Trustee or for any acts or omissions of the Class G Trustee in connection
therewith; or (b) the validity, sufficiency, accuracy or genuineness of
documents delivered to the Policy Provider in connection with any claim under
the Policy, or of any signatures thereon, even if such documents or signatures
should in fact prove to be in any or all respects invalid, insufficient,
fraudulent or forged (unless the Policy Provider shall have actual knowledge
thereof). In furtherance and not in limitation of the foregoing, the Policy
Provider may accept documents that appear on their face to be in order, without
responsibility for further investigation.

            Section 5.03 Severability. In the event that any provision of this
Insurance Agreement shall be held invalid or unenforceable by any court of
competent jurisdiction, the parties hereto agree that such holding shall not
invalidate or render unenforceable any other provision hereof. The parties

            Section 5.04 Governing Law. This Insurance Agreement shall be
governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of New York,

            Section 5.05 Consent to Jurisdiction.

            (a) The parties hereto hereby irrevocably submit to the
non-exclusive jurisdiction of the United States District Court for the Southern
District of New York and any court in the State of New York located in the City
and County of New York, and any appellate court from any thereof, in any action,
suit or proceeding brought against it and to or in connection with any of the
Operative Agreements or the Transactions or for recognition or enforcement of
any judgment, and the parties hereto hereby irrevocably and unconditionally
agree that all claims in respect of any such action or proceeding may be heard
or determined in

                                       18
<PAGE>
such New York state court or, to the extent permitted by law, in such federal
court. The parties hereto agree that a final unappealable judgment in any such
action, suit or proceeding shall be conclusive and may be enforced in other
jurisdictions by suit on the judgment or in any other manner provided by law. To
the extent permitted by applicable law, the parties hereto hereby waive and
agree not to assert by way of motion, as a defense or otherwise in any such
suit, action or proceeding, any claim that it is not personally subject to the
jurisdiction of such courts, that the suit, action or proceeding is brought in
an inconvenient forum, that the venue of the suit, action or proceeding is
improper or that the related documents or the subject matter thereof may not be
litigated in or by such courts.

            (b) To the extent permitted by applicable law, the parties hereto
shall not seek and hereby waive the right to any review of the judgment of any
such court by any court of any other nation or jurisdiction which may be called
upon to grant an enforcement of such judgment.

            (c) Nothing contained in this Insurance Agreement shall limit or
affect any party's right to serve process in any other manner permitted by law
or to start legal proceedings relating to any of the Operative Agreements
against any other party or its properties in the courts of any jurisdiction.

            Section 5.06 Consent of the Policy Provider. No disclosure relating
to the Policy Provider contained in any Offering Document, which disclosure
modifies, alters, changes, amends or supplements the disclosure relating to the
Policy Provider provided by the Policy Provider for use in the Offering
Document, shall be made without the Policy Provider's prior written consent. In
the event that the consent of the Policy Provider is required under any of the
Operative Agreements, the determination whether to grant or withhold such
consent shall be made by the Policy Provider in its sole discretion without any
implied duty towards any other Person, except as otherwise expressly provided
therein.

            Section 5.07 Counterparts. This Insurance Agreement may be executed
in counterparts by the parties hereto, and all such counterparts shall
constitute one and the same instrument.

            Section 5.08 Headings. The headings of Articles and Sections and the
Table of Contents contained in this Insurance Agreement are provided for
convenience only. They form no part of this Insurance Agreement and shall not
affect its construction or interpretation.

            Section 5.09 Trial by Jury Waived. Each party hereby waives, to the
fullest extent permitted by law, any right to a trial by jury in respect of any
litigation arising directly or indirectly out of, under or in connection with
this Insurance Agreement or any of the other Operative Agreements or any of the
Transactions contemplated hereunder or thereunder. Each party hereto (A)
certifies that no representative, agent or attorney of any party hereto has
represented, expressly or otherwise, that it would not, in the event of
litigation, seek to enforce the foregoing waiver and (B) acknowledges that it
has been induced to enter into the Operative Agreements to which it is a party
by, among other things, this waiver.

            Section 5.10 Limited Liability. No recourse under any Operative
Agreement shall be had against, and no personal liability shall attach to, any
officer, employee, director, affiliate or shareholder of any party hereto, as
such, by the enforcement of any assessment or by any legal or equitable
proceeding, by virtue of any statute or otherwise in respect of any of the
Operative Agreements, the Certificates or the Policy, it being expressly agreed
and understood that each Operative Agreement is solely a corporate obligation of
each party hereto, and that any

                                       19
<PAGE>
and all personal liability, either at common law or in equity, or by statute or
constitution, of every such officer, employee, director, affiliate or
shareholder for breaches of any party hereto of any obligations under any
Operative Agreement is hereby expressly waived as a condition of and in
consideration for the execution and delivery of this Insurance Agreement.

            Section 5.11 Entire Agreement. This Insurance Agreement, the Policy,
the Policy Fee Letter and the other Operative Agreements set forth the entire
agreement between the parties with respect to the subject matter hereof and
thereof, and supersede and replace any agreement or understanding that may have
existed between the parties prior to the date hereof in respect of such subject
matter.

            Section 5.12 Independent Agreements. This Insurance Agreement and
the Policy are separate and independent agreements. No breach by any party
hereto of any representation, warranty, covenant, agreement or undertaking
contained herein shall in any way affect the obligations of the Policy Provider
under the Policy.

            Section 5.13 Successors and Assigns. This Insurance Agreement shall
be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the parties hereto and their
respective successors and assigns.
