The conspiracy theorists will say it's because the Pennsylvania flight was shot down by the Air Force after the passengers had already succeeded in regaining control of the aircraft.

You can't keep something like that a secret for goodness sakes.

No, I doubt that's the kind of thing that you could conceal just by destroying the tapes. If the flight controllers had reason to believe Flight 93 was shot down, they would've already said as much a long time ago.

The kind of thing you could obscure by destroying such tapes would be, say, when precisely the flight controllers notified NORAD of the hijackings and what exactly they conveyed to NORAD about the situation.

That's been in significant dispute ever since a day or so after 9/11. There are other things too; I'm just speculating one distinct possibility.

This could be the biggest October surprise out of the Demons.

Clarke illuded to a group meeting in preparation of shooting down planes..if need be. I believe we may have and its top secret until the war is over.

My belief is Clarke or someone will leak and the human cry from the media will suffocate Bush..

Thats my BIG..conspiracy play of the year.

It is a huge problem that the audio tapes of Flight 93 have been censored. These should be released. The families of the victims have the pain and the suffering which is real and won't change. However the public has the right to know what happened here.

The country should be able to witness the courage of these crewmembers who fought off the Arab hijackers.

Instead the tapes are censored and the public is left wondering what happened, with less of a clue than they would otherwise have.

The censorship of these audio tapes as well as the Vincent Foster photos is our government acting at its worst, with the worst of effects.

And your explanation of the light debris 8 miles from the crash site, and the 1-ton piece of debris 1 mile from the site?
