We had just dropped off friends at KMSO at 0600 MDT. Less than an hour later a ground stop was in place and we had to return to the airport to pick them up. We drove to KSLC later that day and were amazed that the normally crowded skies, were not.
I has just boarded a flight from KATL heading to KJFK on UAL when the had shut down the airspace so all flights were cancelled. Many people were looking at the big screens in the departure lounge crying in shock on there phones calling people in NYC most of the air crew's felt silent in watching what had happened. There were many police officers and army here at Atlanta with Automatic rifle weapons searching looking at everyone. We were told by the Captain on this 737 flight there had being a terrorist attack in New York and that the airspace has being ordered such down ordered by the President Bush. Man what a shocking thing to happen.
