These pages are dedicated to all the Innocent people who lost
their lives on the 9-11-2001 at the WTC, Pentagon and Aircraft.
While I watched the events unfold on the
9-11-2001 in my hotel room and saw airplanes crash in to the WTC I gave a
thought to what it must have been like on the hijacked airplanes. I have
always had a problem with flying - it just makes me feel uneasy - but I cannot
comprehend the terror that each and every passenger on these airplanes must
have suffered - may they all rest in peace.
AMERICAN AIRLINES FLIGHT 11
American Airlines Flight 11, from Boston, Massachusetts, to Los Angeles,
California, crashed into the north tower of the World Trade Center with 92
people on board. Here is a list of the terrorist victims. There are few
pictures on this site of these victims, so where possible I have included some
personal information to allow the reader to connect to these REAL
people - they were just like you or me.
