Sioux City, Iowa — A flight attendant who was on United Flight 232 when it crashed in Sioux City 35 years ago returned for events this past weekend to remember the 112 who died and the 184 who survived the crash.
Susan White was just starting her career and was 26 when an engine failure led to the DC-10 crashing at the Sioux Gateway Airport. She says the response was tremendous.
After two nights in the Briar Cliff dorm room, White’s father came to Sioux City to fly back home with her and she eventually returned to her job.
White says part of her therapy was reunions with the other crewmembers, including some that were in Sioux City.
White was in Sioux City on the anniversary on Friday to talk about how the crew communicated during the emergency.
