At 7:30 that morning i had just finished my coffee and as i headed upstairs,i felt a need to pray for my son in law. At 8:00 he was due to pilot a 767 American Airlines non stop from Kennedy to San Francisco. I would bet the farm "they" had looked at his flight,it was the same MO and departing time as the other planes.
Why the need to pray, and what the prayers did, i don't know, but my wife had the same feeling to pray at the same time that morning.
As they didn't know how many planes were involved our Daughter called crying not knowing what to do. We just kept talking to her with the obscene pictures on the TV in the background, until her call waiting clicked in arond 11:00 am, and we found out he had landed his plane in St Louis on hearing from the flight controlers what had happened.
We lost two of our young friends in the trade center. No matter where you were that morning it was very close to home for everybody.
