Flight 3407… Plane could have been saved…

Winter Angel Mt. Hope Cemetery

It has been almost a year since I lost my sister-in-law in that horrific plane crash.  I’ll always remember the phone call in the middle of the night and the images on TV that filled every nerve in my body with indescribable pain and confusion.  The families huddled together day after day in Buffalo, part of the slow process of gathering information, along with the experts, in attempts to piece together the puzzle of why?  And so now it has been confirmed… what had been hinted at from the get go… the crash had nothing to do with weather or plane design…  it had everything to do with improper training and disregard for proper protocol…  The pilot and co-pilot blundered… one mistake after another.  They had many opportunities to recover… but, they did not.

I feel sad as the anniversary draws near.  We miss you Julie.
