As we turn west towards the horizon, we can all think that one turnaround of four different aircraft changed our lives forever, leading to years of mourning, depression, and mystery.
Think about this for a moment; your destiny will always lie in the simplest decisions, the simplest mistakes, the simplest thoughts, if you will. Anything can change your life in an instant; it sounds disturbing, but it’s the truth.
RIP all 3000+ victims of 9/11 and the turmoil following it. We will never forget the terror of that day eighteen short years ago.
As avgeeks, this hits all of us hard, knowing that this happened. I was lucky enough not to be alive at the time but am still hurt by it
I’ve heard people alive at the time remember where they were then they heard the news. This, I’m sure, means alot to many people here. Thank you for spending your time to do this and good day
After 9/11 every thing was changed…
You couldn’t go walk a loved one to a gate
(Unless it was your child)
You weren’t allowed into the cockpit after the beacon light was on, The cockpit door became bullet proof, the way pilots deal with terrorist has changed. So many things have changed.
