2002 Winter Games in Utah: Ogden’s Olympic Legacy

"One of the things that I remember is that when you were getting ready to land in Salt Lake—not immediately before getting ready to land but a full hour before you were in Salt Lake airspace—they would say: "Because of the Olympics, we're not going to allow anyone out of their seat. Once we cross a line and we're an hour outside of Salt Lake airspace you will not be allowed out of your seat. If you need to get up, get up now. Other than that, buckle in because you're not going to get out of your seat for the next hour." Quote from Michael Vaughn's Oral History
