“As part of these events, the airline had also planned an aircraft flyover, a meaningful gesture to honor the memory of those lost within the pilot community, but will suspend those plans due to concerns in the community and instead carry on with the other events of the day,” spokesperson Russell Carlton said in an email.
Before the cancellation, the City of Denver was warning emergency dispatchers, first responders and the public not to panic at the sight of the planned commemoration.

What the fuck!?
Yeah y’all might wanna sit this one out
I wonder if they’ll consider reenacting the time they punched that doctor out or the times they killed people’s pets.
What a stupid idea. What next, they delay controlled demolition of a couple of buildings until 9/11 as a tribute?
I wonder the salary of the person who came up with this idea.

This idea is weirdly similar
wtf are they smoking at united lmao
are they planning a re-enactment for next year?
Why do a flyover when you can do a flyinto?
probably 2 planes, with muslims as the “pilots”, and the same amount of people as the other 2.
How did this get approved? You’d think someone in the chain would say maybe a flyover for 9/11 is a bad idea.
This is on par with commemorating burn victims with a pyrotechnics show.
Karen Carpenter Memorial Buffet
Just slightly out of touch jfc
I’m gonna play a game of Jenga in memorial.
Ignoring how inappropriate it is, it’s still a boring thing to see.
“Hey want to go outside and watch a regular ass plane fly across the sky?”
You see it as a boring plane. They see it as a giant flying billboard.
They could do a low pass over downtown to make it more interesting
Lol
LMFAO even.
Side note, why on earth are they doing their 9/11 reenactment in Denver?
So… you are not aware of the airport’s basement.
Headquartered there, I think.Still fucking stupid though.j/k they’re headquartered in Chicago lol
Who the fuck ever thought that was a remotely appropriate idea? Fucking idiots.
