Aren’t there rules about news accounts of hi-jacking’s in progress being kept quiet ..??
I know it was talked about after 911 - but I don’t know if they did it or anything similar.
Do we have a pilot who can tell us ..??
It was the news of the other plane hijackings (and terrorist strikes with them) that saved another piece of Washington real estate on 9-11. Telling us “it’s for our own good” doesn’t work.
The hijacker already knows the plane has been hijacked.
The passengers generally do too.
It may be to keep the OTHER planes’ passengers in the air (and waiting to board flights) passive rather than on edge.
The internet interprets censorship as damage and routes around it.
