U.S. records showed Atta living in Virginia Beach in April 2001, and they could find no indication he had left Virginia or traveled outside the United States.
Newsweek, May 6, Isikoff Atta in Virginia AND Florida:
The FBI could find no visa or airline records showing he had left or re-entered the United States that month. The bureau does have records showing Atta was in Virginia Beach-where officials suspect he was casing U.S. naval facilities in the area - and Florida in April.
2002 Prospekt, the Czech site:
Atta was living in Florida at the time when he was to have visited Prague. Two days before a possible meeting with al-Ani he flew from Virginia Beach, Florida to New York, but seventy- two hours later he was back in Florida. Czech officials checked out all suspicious men who arrived in Prague on the incriminating days, but were not able to confirmed Atta's visit. Nonetheless a visit was possible. Atta, say, could have flown to Vienna and taken a bus to Prague. "Atta's mysterious stay in Prague can neither be ruled out nor confirmed. We're at the same place we were a year ago," says one reporter occupied on the case. One interesting piece of evidence is the report by the New York Times stating that a few days after the alleged visit to Prague last year one hundred thousand dollars was transferred to Atta's bank account at Sun Bank in Florida from the United Arab Emirates.
Unfortunately the Czech is a little confused about "Virginia Beach" being in Florida. New York?
