we weren't planning on taking off

When you turned back or got turned back did you know about the crash? Is that something you’d tell your passengers in that situation? Always curious about that.

yes, they went down right in front of us, very sickening to watch, you can hear us discussing that with the tower on the transcript, in this case there was no point in not telling everyone what had happened, or trying to soften the announcement with using "kinder, gentler" words
