I flew in to the Atlanta airport from California that night at 11:30pm. Got home and saw that they announced it at midnight.

You would have never known it at the airport 30 mins before it happened. I think it was a huge surprise to everyone.

I lived in a small town close to the Atlanta airport. A lot of people there worked at the Atlanta airport. One guy on our road had worked fir Eastern his entire life. He lost everything just a year from retirement.

Killed himself 6 months later.
