Ya think there'd be this much fuss if it had been a C-172?

Airlines are supposed to have all sorts of checks and balances besides the pilots in order to avoid that situation altogether. Was there actually a fuel leak on this plane? Or did someone at AA screw up?

My response to a controller who tries to give me something I do not want
in situation like this would be, "What part of the word EMERGENCY do you not understand?"

Indeed... I can't believe the pilot let the controller bully him into taking a different course of action. Any-one who endangers an aircraft I am flying or a flight crew I am part of in the reported manner would be talking to the relevent authorities as to how he should keep his job !
