Country: | Well guys - it's been a long day - found out about Brad on my way in. I missed my first flight and found out as I was at the gate - broke down at the airport, some folks thought I was having a heart attack. After I pulled together I got in touch with my father in law. Gave me the pep talk and basically said, "get your @ss out here, I need your help." Got in after midnight, tomorrow going to close down the rest of the team and send Brad's widow home. We're still going to stay till Sunday but to be honest it's all very surreal - I want to wake up tomorrow thinking this was all a bad dream. Anyway I'll keep you guys posted, appreciate the kind words...
Joe

Country: | Give our best to the team and to the friends and family. Words fail at times like these to give any solace, but we're with you in spirit Joe.
This has been a horrible year for aviation.
