For whatever, it's worth, here's an eyewitness account of the Flight 77 crash I haven't seen before:

About 9:30, the phone that connects his tower to the Secret Service rang. A voice on the other end said an unidentified aircraft was speeding toward Washington. Stephenson looked at the radarscope and saw that the jet was about five miles to the west.

The airplane was completely out of place. "I knew what had just happened in New York. I had a pretty good idea what was up," he said.

He looked out the tower window and saw the jet turning to the right and descending. The jet did a full circle and whoever was flying knew what he was doing. The wings never rocked or oscillated, Stephenson said.

The jet disappeared behind a building in nearby Crystal City, Va., and exploded into the Pentagon. A fireball blew several hundred feet into the air. For several minutes, a huge cloud of debris — paper, insulation and pulverized building materials — hung in the air.

Also, if you go to this page:

http://www.usatoday.com/news/sept11/2002-08-12-hijacker-daytwo_x.htm

and you look at the box called "Interactive documentary: How 4,500 planes landed in four hours" there are some interesting audios of people on 9/11. I'd like to add some of that info to the 9/11 timeline, but I'd need it in transcript form. Anyone want to volunteer to transcribe at least some of those? The first two, Ben Sliney's account, and Norman Mineta's account are the most interesting, I think.
