Very impressive photo. The longer I look at it the more I have tears in my eyes. When it happened I was too young to understand, but I will never forget when I was allowed to go home from school earlier then usual and watched TV with my parents. God bless everyone who died and who knew persons who died. I just can repeat: United We Stand.

A visitor from Puerto Rico posted Fri August 10, 2007:
With this picture I remember that day so vividly. Almost 6 years ago, I was in 5th grade, and very calmed, my gym teacher told the class that a horrible thing had happened. That the twin towers were struck. I just couldn't believe it, until I saw it on TV. I wanted to help all those people, all I could do was pray, and I did. 5 stars and a Sun. God Bless from Puerto Rico - United we Stand.

A visitor from United States posted Tue July 17, 2007:

An amazing picture... Brings all the memories back to me...Now THIS should be in best photos of all time section...

A visitor from United States posted Fri August 4, 2006:
These memorial spotlights remind me that 9/11 didn't happen on TV, it wasn't some Hollywood movie that was staged, it happened for real, right here. People were alive on those planes. People live and work near ground zero. What a sad day that will live on forever. We will all remember exactly where we were when this happened, just like those who can relate to Kennedy's assassination. May the victims rest in peace.

A visitor from United States posted Fri July 28, 2006:
An amazing picture which captures both the emotion of the event that occured on 9/11 but also shows all the energy and dynamism that makes NY such a particular city!

Have you noticed that the spotlights form the number "11" as "September 11"? So did the towers when they were there. What a coincidence! T.B.

A visitor from United Kingdom posted Sat February 25, 2006:
Unbelivable! It is amazing how this photo has braught together people from diffrent ethnic backgrounds to leave such moving and caring commetns. I just think that flying a plane trough the lights that resembel the towers is kind of unthaughtful, Also id like to thank airliners.net for letting you share this with us as no details what so ever are know of the plane and neither is the plane viewable but they would be sad to say no so well done A.net and well done dna!
