11.12.14b (LAA/LUS) Remembering Our Colleagues – AA Flight 587

Remembering Our Colleagues Today – November 12, 2014

November 12th is a difficult day for our membership. Thirteen years ago today, we lost nine of our colleagues aboard AA Flight 587 when it crashed in Belle Harbor, New York shortly after takeoff from JFK. The wounds were still open from the losses we suffered on September 11th, just two months prior, when we learned that seven more Flight Attendants and two pilots were gone as well. Please take a moment to remember our fallen colleagues.
 
In memory of those we lost 13 years ago. We will never forget…
