another 9/11 story
I was on a boat when the attacks occurred. Was on a 3/4 day fishing trip to Mexico out of San Diego. We were traveling when we watched the 2nd plane crash in to the towers. The big Sportfishing boats do have satellite TV. We were informed that both San Diego Bay and Mission Bay were closed to water traffic. A lot of the west coast Pacific Fleet berths in San Diego Bay. So we did go fishing. Did catch tuna, and when they finally opened up Mission Bay for traffic we and a big bunch of other boats pulled in. I was out of Seaforth Fishing in Mission Bay, so was easy to return to our place in Mission Beach, but all the Point Loma boats were double and triple tied at Seaforth and the other landings and waiting for bus transport back to Point Loma. |

Here it was all the airliners coming west but refused entry to American air space.
Between Halifax and Newfoundland, there must have been close to a hundred planes allowed to land and passengers put up in shelters...fed etc. |
