A timely reminder of why action must be taken, and end all this rubbish about civilian casulaties in Afganistan and stopping the campaign for ramadan, would they stop for christmas? Also it was not just americans, it was the WORLD trade centre full of germans, british, french even some arabs. So as Bush says don't just support the action but take part and help.

Finally lets all show some resolve and get flying again, do you really think this will happen again, Sept 11 was a suprise, nobody expected it, but now we will. If some one tries to take over an aircraft again people will surely act. By being scared to fly we are giving in to terrorists and giving them what they want, starting a depression in the free world will or even has destroyed hundreds of thousands of lives already, especially those made out of work in our AVIATION industry. That is why this post is extremely relevant.

There, I've done my bit, now its everyone elses turn to speak up.

Well put together, and a poignant reminder for years to come no doubt......

Have to agree.....get back in the air and don't let them achieve the aim of bringing the FREE world to its knees with the threat of a repeat attack.

Tor,

Another very good effort. I already had the following running in the Computer and Internet Forum.....

<<<If you have the time, the willpower and a good video streaming connection on your computer - turn down the lights, turn up the sound and watch this movie.

The running time is just under eight minutes.

Rick
So you're on the outside looking in?
If your post is anything to go by, I think that's the best place for you.

What a shame you didn't quote the next part of the post - it summed up perfectly how any real true aviator thinks:
"By being scared to fly we are giving in to terrorists and giving them what they want, starting a depression in the free world will or even has destroyed hundreds of thousands of lives already, especially those made out of work in our AVIATION industry."
(I've assumed you're an adult. If 'student' in your profile really means what used to be called a 'schoolboy', please ignore the above comments.)
