Jun 24, 2008 (AIRLINE INDUSTRY INFORMATION via COMTEX) -- AMR | Quote | Chart | News | PowerRating -- The Allied Pilots Association, which represents the 12,000 pilots of American Airlines, has leased a billboard near to Chicago's O'Hare International Airport.

The billboard, located on I-294 southbound at Touhy Avenue, Chicago, states "AA's Priority? Not You!" and claims that the airline delayed or cancelled more than 250,000 flights in 2007.

The union says it is seeking to highlight the American Airlines management's "industry-trailing operational record and failure to make passengers a top priority".

In addition the union has established a website at http://www.TellYourAAStory.com and is inviting customers of American Airlines to "share their ideas for fixing the airline".
