ATTN: Miss SPC Margaret Higgins, reference your question on how I use Configuration Management-based community intelligence on a day-to-day basis. This open-source intelligence (OSINT)-article Implicitly impacts our Civil Reserve Aircraft Fleet (CRAF). Let me explain.

NOTE: The link to the CRAF Fact Sheet explicitly calls out "American Airline" as a CRAF asset. Have a great day in Space!
