            </table><P>DRACUT, Mass. – An airline pilot killed in the terrorist attacks was 
remembered Monday as a dedicated aviator and avid farmer by thousands who 
attended his memorial. 
<P>"Some teasingly, and lovingly, called him `John Deere Johnny,"' said Jim 
Ogonowski, the brother of John Ogonowski, captain of one of the planes that 
crashed into the World Trade Center. 
<P>"United Americans standing tall. That's what John sees today when he looks 
down. ... Our spirit stands unbroken. John would be so proud." 
<P>About 2,000 people – including 400 uniformed employees of American Airlines – 
attended. 
<P>Ogonowski, a 50-year-old father of three daughters, was the captain of 
American Flight 11, which was hijacked from the Boston airport along with a 
United jetliner. Terrorists crashed the airliners into the twin towers. 
<P>Ogonowski had been a pilot for American for 23 years. 
<P>"He was the consummate aviator," said John Panarelli, 48, who drove more than 
20 hours from Georgia. Ogonowski had been Panarelli's flight instructor. 
<P>"It was always a pleasant surprise to see his name on the flight list," said 
flight attendant Gynni Neri, who called Ogonowski "the sweetest man in the 
world." 
<P>Ogonowski also worked to preserve open space and leased parts of his 150-acre 
farm to Cambodian immigrants so they could grow produce native to their homeland 
as part of a project. 
<P>A memorial for Michael R. Horrocks, 38, the first officer on the United jet 
that hit the Trade Center, was also held Monday. A 21-gun salute and taps were 
played. 
<P>"He had a real zest for community and family," said the Rev. Ralph Chieffo of 
St. Mary Magdalen Church in Upper Providence Township in Pennsylvania. 
<P>Friends said Horrocks became interested in flying while a senior in college 
when he took the controls of a friend's small plane on a trip to Florida.
