Re: 39 years ago tonight
I remember this accident every year. I saw the movie "Crash" when I was young and a few years later was given a book about Flight Attendants (on a TWA flight) - from that time I wanted to be a Flight Attendant, to look after passengers as did the 401 crew. I've just completed 23 years flying and have also worked teaching Emergency Procedures to new trainees. It was also through this site I met a Northwest FA, we soon discovered a mutual friend - Jeff - who was sadly lost on AA11 on September 11. It was this also this NWA friend who was caught up in the terrible Mumbai hotel attack whilst on a layover, fortunately he survived. It seems that through disaster there is always some good somewhere. I have the job of my dreams, I've been able to travel to far countries and do humanitarian work, I've met (and sadly lost) some wonderful friends, I've had the opportunity to train new crew and instill in them the pride of this profession but most importantly, I know that I will always remember Eastern 401 - and be grateful for the life it has given me. I will continue to remember the passengers and crew of Eastern 401 - God Bless you all.
