Feel free to write as much or as little as you like. Tell us your story: I remember my phone ringing, thinking it was my crew saying our airplane was fixed and we were ready to go. )We had gotten stuck in Dubuque qith a mechanical problem and did not make it to our layover in Portland, Maine.) It was my first officer but not telling me the a/c was fixed, but to turn on the tv and CNN. I watched while on the phone with him as smoke floated into the air around the WTC. We talked thinking someone had been fooling around and ended in tragedy. As, we talked, suddenly a second plane turned into the WTC. We sat in silence for a few moments letting the shock of it sink in. I remember both of us with cracking voices as we hung up the phone never more then a few doors away from each other. Both of us saddened and unsure, alone from families and friends, who were so many states away. We spent many hours together the next few days toughing out one of life's greatest test. Finally, 5 days later, being allowed to get in an airplane and go home. I lost friends and co-workers. Life changed but still I get up and put a smile on my face each time I get on that airplane knowing it is the best way to conquer those who would have some much anger to cause such sadness.
