This is the view of Love Field from the cafeteria. That's the control tower and terminal across the runway with the SWA jets coming and going.

This airport shut down on Sep 11 after the suicide skyjackings. Lisa said that when the flight ban was lifted an email went out that said the first SWA flight would take off at 10:45 AM. Thousands of employees from headquarters went to the fence line you see at the bottom of this view to support the first takeoff. It taxied out from the terminal, hailed by cheers and shouts. As it took off, somebody began playing "God Bless America" on the loudspeaker and everyone broke down.

It's outrageous for us to flee our own sky for fear of foreign invaders. We're going to beat these evil Wahhabi bastards.
