Didn't see a thread on this - but in news videos I saw a UA747 on the parallel runway. By the looks of it, it was queued for takeoff when the crash occurred and the takeoff was aborted (it looked to be a few hundred yards down, so if it did start takeoff, the abort was within the first second or two. In any case, from the looks of it the plane sat there for hours before the runway was cleared to taxi (and likely return to gate). Anyone know anything about this? I can only imagine what it would be like to be sitting inside watching things unfold, and then waiting for hours and hours to be released (or take off!)
