Default 911 Flight Paths Detail

Some of you may be interested in this graphics package which tracks the actual flight paths of the aircraft involved in the 911 hijackings.

Click on the arrows in the right column to the left of each flight.. The one that shows them all in action is most interesting. It reveals how well the plan had been developed, barring departure delays.

That is freaky... Great find. Still brings on sad memories of that terrible day...

Because, Marty, the world was different in those days.

Noone was suspecting suicide hijackings.

9/11 changed the way we look at things.
