This article is amazing.
I was piloting an airline trip on 9/11, mid-Pacific from Osaka Japan to San Francisco when the jihad battle began. For months, we had received warnings from the FAA and our company that their was an increased chance of hijack. Unfortunately, the "standing order" was to cooperate with hijackers and yield to their demands. It was conceivable, but nobody could believe, hijackers would slaughter all onboard and use the aircraft itself as a flying bomb.

Preparing for The Next Pearl Harbor Attack
I was piloting an airline trip on 9/11, mid-Pacific from Osaka Japan to San Francisco when the jihad battle began. For months, we had received warnings from the FAA and our company that their was an increased chance of hijack. Unfortunately, the "standing order" was to cooperate with hijackers and yield to their demands. It was conceivable, but nobody could believe, hijackers would slaughter all onboard and use the aircraft itself as a flying bomb. Your post gave me goosebumps. And once again verifies what Bush administration officials testified to last week, but that got ignored in favor of Clarke mania.
Thanks for giving us that "insight".
