‘He would want us to watch’

Stubborn Kansas City Chiefs fans on a fateful American Airlines flight told their mother in time to see his team compete in the Super Bowl, but the plane collided with a US military helicopter After that, I didn't retreat. Everyone boarded the boat.

Dustin Miller, 43, headed to Rochester, New York for work when he boarded a DC bind flight in Wichita, Kansas on January 29th and returned to the Super Bowl when he dropped him on his mother. At the airport, I told my mother that I couldn't wait.

“He said he wanted to go home in time to see the Chiefs play in the Super Bowl,” Miller's friend Audra Rogers wrote on GoFundMe for IT professionals.

“He bought a plane ticket for his younger brother John to fly from Arizona to Kansas, allowing him to watch the game at home with his mother and father,” added Rogers.

And just before the plane took off, Miller texted his boss and called a friend, it was the last plane of the day, with the crew joking and full of figure skaters from America and Russia. So let us know how much you enjoy your flight. 。

But that was the last person everyone had heard from him.

After news of the crash reached them, his family and friends continued every minute of a search and rescue operation, hoping to call him to say he's OK, but in the end they were left with the survivors. Learning not to, they would have lost their beloved friends, brothers, sons.

“When I say Dustin was the funniest man in the room, I talk for the family. He was the most generous and affectionate. His sister, Kristen Miller Zahn, wrote in Gofundme.

“He was just a brother, a son, and a close friend of us. We all had a unique and special bond with him. He did anything for the people he loved, and he was I didn't know that well,” she added.

But Miller is no longer with them, but the family doesn't let them cheer for the chief when they play the Philadelphia Eagles at New Orleans' Sunday Super Bowl. They see it in his honor.

“He was a huge fan so I wanted him to see the Super Bowl game and the Chiefs' roots. He was looking forward to it,” his sister said.

“He loved us. He wants us all to love each other and focus on what's important, on our family.”

Since the plane dropped a week ago, the bodies of all 67 victims have been recovered.

Most of the plane's pieces are drawn from the Potomac River, and crews are now pulling choppers from the frigid waters where the ships have splashed out after the collision.

The plane's black box revealed that it was travelling at a reasonable 325 feet when the collision occurred, but Chopper was flying high at 300 feet, according to air traffic control radar data.

Authorities said they could not further analyze the situation that led to the crash until Chopper was recovered.
