airliner collection about September 11 attacks

早在几年前,看到airliners上的照片几十架飞机停在跑道上,好奇之下看了它的解释,原来那是有关911时间的照片。那时遭受袭击后的美国关闭了领空,所有的民用飞机被禁止在美国境内飞行,所以所有飞向美国的国际航班都转降其他国家。现在自己有时间,又是十年之后,就把这事情写下来留作纪念吧。

brought to you by the letters O, B, and L. A day none of us will ever forget. [Nikon F90x / 35-70F3.3 + KR64]CYVR

taken the "day-after" all hell broke lose in NYC... this photo clearly shows over half of the diverts YVR saw from the 11th. At least 16 of the diverts are shown on the south-west portion of the field, parked along runway 12/30.CYVR
During the attacks many planes were diverted and we got 13.. Here is a few of them all parked together. an AA777, UA777, Alitalia Md11 and a few more 777s cut off from this picture..YYC is also one of the few airports that has hay stacks sitting in the field near the taxiways and the planes.. Now THAT is a true Western Airport.CYYC 9/12

The day when billions of heartbeats stopped. The day of Infamy as it was often referred to as. It is obvious to realize why all these planes are parked. The upcoming year annivesary is near so I decided to add a few more pictures of 9-11 diversions.CYYC
This was a very busy day at Gander International airport due to the events that happened on this day. E-mail me if you have any Questions or Comments.CYQX

Alitalia 767 and 747, Lufthansa 747, American Airlines 767, British Airways 747 and 777, Air France A340, SwissAir A330, Delta 767, US Airways A330, etc. 45 flights going to the US diverted to Halifax International Airport (YHZ) Our deepest sympathy goes out to the victims, the victims' famlies and everyone affected by the terrorist attack on the World Trade Center and the Pentagon.CYHZ

@ my lunch break on my Air Canada shift I took some pics of airplanes: (Left) Boeing 747-200 Lufthansa, Boeing 767-300 ?, Boeing 777-200 ?, (Right) US Airways (three planes) Airbus A330-300, Boeing 767-200, Airbus A330-300. CYHZ
On approach into STL, I had no clue as to what had just happened to our nation at the time.KSTL
Touchdown at STL in an American Airlines Fokker 100, and still no clue as to what has happened.KSTL
It's now 10am, I was able to snap a few photos before we had to leave the airport. Airline flights have now been halted, as seen in this photo of TW Express E-145's that have been parked and locked up at their STL gates.KSTL
The 1st plane to be hijacked and crashed on September 11, 2001 (an American 767-200) sits at Terminal B in Boston as a United 767 sits at Terminal C.KBOS June 01

Seconds after I took this picture is when an announcement was made throughout the airport that it was closing for the day...I would not be going to New Orleans that morning.KDEN

Still can't believe i shot this just 8 days before 9/11. Delta Express 737-200 departs while enroute for departure are delta 763, northwest 744, ASA CRJ and Delta MD80 9.3.01
I was happy to get this rare beauty on film untill i heard the sad news (NYC and Washington DC) while driving back home.LOWS


The fallout from September 11th. As of the end of October, British Airways had 10 747s in storage at Cardiff. There are six seen here on the old cross runway - from right to left: G-BDXE, J, B, O, H, & N.EGFF 10/8
A US Army Sikorsky Black Hawk helicopter hovers over Ground Zero, smoldering the day after the Sept 11th terrorist attacks on The World Trade Center Twin Towers. The buildings seen here standing in front of Ground Zero are part of the World Financial Center (WFC)... from left to right they are 4 WFC, 3 WFC and 2 WFC. The Winter Garden glass dome is between 3 and 2 WFC. Note the damage sustained to side of 3 WFC. I took this shot during sunset & in this low sun light you see the dust covering in more detail. 9/12

An NYPD Bell helicopter hovers over the smoldering World Financial Center (WFC) the day after the Sept 11th terrorist attacks on The World Trade Center Twin Towers. The buildings seen here standing in front of Ground Zero... from left to right are The Mercantile Exchange, 4 WFC, 3 WFC and 2 WFC. The Winter Garden glass dome is between 3 and 2 WFC. Note the damage sustained to the side of 3 WFC and dust covering the sides of all the buildings.9/12

In memory of September 11, 2001 this aircraft was renamed as "Gander and Halifax" to display Lufthansa's gratitude to these cities - they cared for about 7 Lufthansa long-range aircraft and 1500 their passengers/crew members who were diverted to Canada after the terror attacks. It is the first Lufthansa aircraft not carrying the name of a German city.
wiki 美国东部时间:

上午8时46分-10时29分:至少有20名(主要集中在北楼)被大火和浓烟围困在大楼顶楼的人员从高空跳下。有证据显示在遭袭击后北楼中部很大一块区域立即坍塌,或许这是让这些人以为大楼很快就要坍塌而跳楼求生。一名位于底层的消防队员被一名从天而降的跳楼者撞击而亡。由于烟雾与上升气流太过浓烈,空中救援活动无法进行,而且纽约市本身就缺乏专门进行空中救援的直升机。
大约上午9时04分:FAA波士顿空中交通控制中心发布命令,暂停其管辖区内所有飞机的起飞(新英格兰与纽约州东部)。
上午9时06分:FAA禁止任何飞机进入纽约以及附近的波士顿、克利夫兰与华盛顿领空。
上午9时08分:FAA禁止全美国所有飞往或经过纽约领空的飞机起飞。

上午9时24分:FAA通知NORAD东北空防部门,美国航空77号班机已经被劫持。FAA与NORAD连线讨论美国航空77号班机与联合航空93号班机的有关事宜。
上午9时26分:FAA宣布禁止全国所有民航班机起飞。
上午9时37分:美国航空77号班机(波音757)撞入五角大厦西翼并且引起大火。被袭击的部分刚刚翻新过,还没有完全投入使用,但是仍然造成五角大厦西翼百余人丧命。
上午9时45分:美国关闭其领空,禁止任何民航班机起飞,所有在飞行的班机必须立即在距离最近的机场降落,所有飞往美国的航班即刻改飞加拿大。之后,FAA宣布禁飞令至少会持续到9月12日午后。禁飞令最终持续到9月14日,此其间只有军事及救援飞机被允许起飞。这次是美国历史上第四次停止所有在美商业航班的运作,并且是唯一一次未经计划的紧急措施。在此之前都因国防需要而停飞所有飞机。

上午10时03分:联合航空93号班机(波音757)在宾西法尼亚州尚克斯维尔东南部坠毁。警方调查报告表明,机上无人生还。后来的进一步调查显示,飞机坠毁前有旅客通过移动电话与地面取得过联系,并且已经得知世界贸易中心与五角大楼遭到袭击。在得知自身即将成为自杀炸弹后,至少有3名乘客冒险奋勇还击,试图从劫机者手中重夺飞机控制权。很有可能是由于激烈的反抗导致飞机在未到达目的地前便坠毁;一架形似波音747的白色飞机在出事后几分钟曾在白宫上方盘旋,事后部分媒体推测该架飞机为美军的E-4B空中指挥所[2]。但该架飞机的出现并没有被描述在任何官方报告中。
上午10时10分:五角大楼部分地区坍塌。
上午10时13分:纽约联合国总部开始进行疏散,上万人受影响。
上午10时28分31秒:世贸北楼从上到下坍塌,在撞击点以上的楼层无人生还。北楼之所以要比南楼晚倒塌,主要有三个原因:撞击点较高、飞机速度较慢,受影响楼层的防火系统已经被部分更新;位于双塔附近的万豪酒店、美国海关、希尔顿酒店等建筑也遭到破坏。
上午10时35分:警方接到报告,称华盛顿美国国务院门外的一辆汽车中装有炸弹,后被证实并未发生任何意外。
