"They called me on the 11th. So on the 11th at 3:00 in the afternoon, the phone rings and I answer it and they said, "It's American Airlines scheduling." And I go, "Yeah." They go, "We got a trip for you tomorrow.""
Captain Steve Shidner recalls American Airlines crew scheduling phoned him around 3pm on 11 September while flights were grounded. He says he was offered a next-day trip described as Flight 11 to Los Angeles, and he was reluctant to accept amid uncertainty after the attacks.
