(74,527 posts)...waiting to board a plane to Atlanta.
About 5 minutes before boarding call, they announced all flights were delayed, but no explanation.
Some guy said "Maybe it's because of that plane hitting the WTC." I had no idea.
We went to the magazine store and were watching the TV the lady had on. In less than a minute, we saw the second plane hit.
I knew immediately we weren't going anywhere that day, because thar was obviously intentional.
I picked up myself & headed for the door & the parking lot.
While I was walking out they announced the FAA was suspending all flights indefinitely.
Went back to the site where my office was & they were on total lockdown. Wouldn't let me in & I was a senior manager with the company for 22 years.
I just headed home and watched the coverage on TV.
