BA Experiences 9/11 & other tragedies
Today was the anniversary of the heart breaking, tradegy of 9/11. (A bit late UK time sorry.)
Where many of you flying into NY that day on BA?
I know this crosses a line and could be OMNI territory but I don’t wish it to Mods. I ask from a BA perspective. NYLON is the flight path for BA.
How did you feel if you were arriving or departing JFK? What was the BA reaction that afternoon/morning?
i distinctively remember where I was, as I’m sure many do.
At 9am (US) there are not many, if any BA flights so it made me wonder about what BA did. NYLON is a huge lifeline for BA
I also watched the film about Sully and US1549 last night for the first ever time. It’s remarkable.
Both are incredibly sad moments in time. I‘m sorry if this is a sensitive subject for some. I am intrigued by these events as I cannot imagine what people went through on these days.
However on a positive point, it makes me think how safe flying can be. BA have always made me feel safe. Long may that continue.
I will never forgot.
Thanks for keeping us safe.
