Sheri - have been freaked about that all morning. How sad, you are right.

It is very sad.
Current scuttlebutt on FlyerTalk is that aircraft may have taken off from wrong runway. I can't understand how that could happen but Runway 26 is 3500ft while Runway 22 is 7000ft.

Very tragic. I flew out of Louisville this morning at the same time this plane crashed. I was considering flying out of Lexington if I couldn't find a flight out of Louisville, so needless to say, when I got to my layover, there were a few worried messages on my voicemail.
Our thoughts & prayers are with their families.

I read on line and heard on TV as well that one sister was on the plane and was meeting her another sister in Atlanta. They were headed to a cruise in Alaska.
The whole thing is awful.

There was also a young couple who were married on Saturday and on their way to their honeymoon! :(
John, thank god you are okay! I remember seeing stories about people who were supposed to be on one of the 9/11 flights. They were really traumatized by it. Not that they weren't feeling fortunate...but perhaps having a bit of survivor guilt mixed in with a feeling of mortality.
I hope the co-pilot will be okay. How in the world he lived through that is beyond me!

Sad and scary. My thoughts go out to the families who lost their loved ones.
Editing to say, Glad you are ok, John. I'm sure your wife must have been very worried.
