CONWAY — Flight attendant Kathy Keene wasn't in the air on Sept. 11, 2001. She had the day off, and was exercising at the Cranmore Fitness Center and watching the television that was mounted on the wall.

"The televisions were on, and I was on the stair-stepper," Keene, of Conway, recalled. "It was a gorgeous morning. I saw the first plane hit and thought it was odd. I assumed it was a small private plane. When the second one hit, I gathered everyone as I think I was the only one paying attention. We were glued to the television for hours."
