Where were you, when the planes hit the WTC?


At work, one of the ladies in the office had a radio on and heard about the
first plane. They thought it was a small aircraft at that time. Our US
parent company fed one of the US new stations over our closed satellite
network a few minutes before the second plane hit. We had the radio on over
the intercom well into the morning despite being open to the public. Being I
live on the west coast of Canada we saw an increase in air traffic that day
as air traffic was diverted to our airports. I even remember seeing a
passenger jet escorted in by a military jet. Calls went out asking the
public to call in if they could take in stranded travelers. I don't believe
this was necessary as the hotels and motels opened up everything they had. I
remember feeling sick for days.
