Where did you find a link to that attribution page? I went looking and
found a flight tracker on their website that is actually serving up tiles
straight from osm.org. Not quite in line with tile usage policies I suppose
but they DO have attribution on the map at least.

To see it you have to find an in-progress flight. Right now this link
should work for a few more hours (until the flight reaches LA):

Oh, the -ops in the URL threw me off. Your link is to the attribution page
for flightstats.com, not American Airlines. And flightstats.com is serving
up their own tiles. They started using OSM back in 2011 or 2012 when Google
started charging for maps. Wm Leler from flightstats.com presented at the
2012 SOTM-US conference in Portland. Links to the presentation are on the
wiki:
