The June 1st 2009 crash of Air France Rio-Paris Flight 447 caused us to pause and recall a local airplane crash victim from eight years ago. As seen on the monument above, on September 11, 2001, Greensboro area resident Sandra W. Bradshaw died aboard United Airlines Flight 93. We want to remember the flight attendant from Greensboro who worked until the very end trying to help passengers on that ill-fated day. Several screens of information about United Airlines Flight 93 are available on Wikipedia, so we will defer to them for details.
This monument to Sandra is found just outside the baseball stadium in downtown Greensboro. This is our contribution to the Monochrome Weekly Theme.
Good tribute and reminder of the bravery shown during that tragic time.
