Merger cuts small share of American Eagle staff
The AMR Eagle merger will affect about five percent of American Eagle employees mostly in management. Some workers will be relocated or eliminated while others may be promoted. Midland International Airport services remain unchanged for now. The four carriers will operate as one network, with a single pilot contract already in place and a tentative flight attendant contract approved this week. The move aims to streamline operations, cut real estate and system costs, and boost market responsiveness. American Eagle runs about 1,200 daily flights to 125 cities.

Tucker to challenge Texas death row commutation process
Condemned killer Karla Faye Tucker says she will seek a constitutional challenge to the mechanism allowing death row inmates to seek life-term commutations. Tucker, 38, is set for execution February 3 for the 1983 Houston killing, a case that drew national attention due to her gender and claimed conversion to Christianity. If successful, the move could affect others awaiting commutation review.
