Are these legit official trading cards?

A user received trading cards from American Airlines pilots and questioned their authenticity after being told they were unofficial cards created and printed by an individual rather than official merchandise. Official American Airlines Centennial trading cards had just begun rolling out that week, creating uncertainty about whether the received cards were legitimate. The user sought confirmation of the cards' authenticity, particularly regarding a Boeing 737 Max series 1 card they had received.
