It's funny how things about crashes tend to stick sometimes.

Will had the option of flying into DeGaulle or Orly.

Not only did I immediately say "DeGaulle" but he understood exactly why that was my reaction.

Mind you now, that crash occurred 5 years before I was born and over 35 years after he was born ... but one of those on board was from the little town we lived in when he was born so he's pretty much always known about it. In fact, we have a chair from the victim's estate sale, which didn't take place until some 40 years after the crash (family simply left her house as it was for decades).
