Any student pilot, ready for his first cross-country flight would have the navigational skills to find the WTC. Ain't rocket science, especially with today's navigational aids, which they probably didn't need or use, as the trip was only about 150 miles. Shorter than my first cross-country flight.
that brings back memories. LOL. the fbo at the backwater MI field where I wound up tried to ground me...cornfield, airport, what is the difference?
I miss those days.
