This is an ongoing issue for AA - the FAA have been cracking down recently following allegations of some cosiness between it's officials and some airlines, or simply to enfore it's requirements for safety. It affected me a few weeks ago in Minneapolis for a similar reason - but I had thought that was resolved, obviously not.
