Courtney Edwards, the Piedmont Airlines worker who died after being sucked into a plane engine at an Alabama airport, is being remembered by her union as a “loving mother.”
Richard Honeycutt, vice president of CWA District 3 and chair of CWA's Passenger Service Airline Council, said in a statement that Edwards "was away from her family working on New Year's Eve making sure passengers got to where they needed to be for the holidays.
A report from the NTSB this week said the aircraft involved in the incident "shook violently" and shut off with a "bang" when it happened. The preliminary report states the aircraft had an inoperative auxiliary power unit and that its captain signaled for it to be connected to ground power after arriving from Dallas, opting to "leave both engines running for the required two-minute engine cool down period.
