Mods, can we please put this as a sticky in a few of the most seen forums, even if for just a few weeks before it goes to it's proper place? It seems like everyone has friends at National. I don't want to downplay other happenings in which aviation cost lives, but this one has touched a lot of us and I'd like to make sure this memorial site is visible to all of us here because it serves an important purpose. It's no doubt going to be a struggle for more than a few people that lost loved ones in this crash. This website is verified authentic in that it was created and is managed by people with the National Cargo family, and the paypal button gives everyone at APC a chance to help them monetarily and spread the word. I know how much these wives are getting and it's not enough.

To re-emphasize, you were correct in moving this thread to the proper forum, but can we make multiple stickies in the most popular forums (just temporarily) to raise awareness?

Respectfully, thank you either way.

John

 

Tried to donate but all I got was this error message,,,anyone know why?

""The card you entered cannot be used for this payment. Please enter a different credit or debit card number.""

It is the card I use for all my stuff......

 

Don't know a soul at National, but they were aviation brothers just the same. I'll donate what I can.......

 

I called my good friend who works in the safety office at National Airlines and told him of concerns people have about donating. He texted me Home Page. He said this is the website and its official. All monies WILL be donated to the families of our fallen brothers. He told me a little more about the accident. They were screwed right after T/O. I'm donating $100.00. Let's help the families. If it was you in the crash, wouldn't you hope someone would help your family. If you still have any concerns about if this is legit, PM myself.

 

I just donated $100.00. The site worked fine. Here's my proof. Who's next to donate any amount ??

Any thoughts as to a magnetic ribbon such as the one on the donation site ?

 

I don't have much, but I have enough for this. Heartbreaking.

 

The page has gone down a few times because there was a flood and paypal got confused. Please make sure that if you intended to donate that you not give up. I think it's been straightened out for a while.

 

I just tried it and it worked. Really horrible accident. My heart goes out to the families.

 

I'll send some next payday. I have a freight hauler in the family, and I hope their family members will be taken care of....
