Here's an interesting thing
I just discovered this today.

http://www.mnet.co.za/CarteBlanche/Display/Display.asp?Id=2063

It's got some interesting info on 9/11 I've never seen before. It's a BBC documentary though you can't tell from the link. Here's a BBC summary of it:

http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/world/americas/2224245.stm

Lots of interesting claims there, for instance that Air Force One didn't have fighter escorts until 11:41! A lot of contradictions to the recent 9/11 Commission conclusion that the shoot down order was given after 10:06.

1. So many contradictions
For instance, this one from the BBC piece:

Neither pilot at this time has any reason to believe that this is other than a routine exercise. Duff: "It's just peacetime. We're not thinking anything real bad is going to happen out there."

compared to the same pilot's recollection a few months before:

A fellow officer tells Lt. Col. Timothy Duffy (codenamed Duff) before takeoff, "This looks like the real thing." Duffy recalls, "It just seemed wrong. I just wanted to get there. I was in full-blower all the way."(Aviation Week and Space Technology, 6/3/02)

2. implications?
The fact Air Force 1 didn't have escorts until 11:41 implicates that BushCo knew they weren't a target.

3. afterburner supersonic
Duffy and Nasty Nash are liars.

ALL THE WAY on afterburner suits to being supersonic.

But when "flying over Central park" nobody notices the poor late coming pilots. Not even their sonic boom. No camera catches them, no eye or earwitness, no geograpc institute notices the boom.

They did NOT SCRAMBLE at 8:52.

That is all. More proof at www.medienanalyse-international.de/hunt.html

By the way: it is impossible to be supersonic and not to make the way to Manhattan from OTIS in 10-12 minutes - the exact time needed. Count it.
