you are gonna hurt
yourself and the airplane.

00:09:48,449 --> 00:09:49,658

00:10:01,704 --> 00:10:03,292
somebody is coming
back from business
187
00:10:03,326 --> 00:10:04,396
if you can hold
on for one second,
188
00:10:04,431 --> 00:10:05,501

and we can't even get up
to business class right now
194
00:10:18,825 --> 00:10:20,620
'cause nobody can breathe
195
00:10:20,654 --> 00:10:22,311
and we can't get the cockpit,
196
00:10:22,345 --> 00:10:25,866

[indistinct]along with
security okay Betty.
223
00:11:21,232 --> 00:11:24,822
You're doing a great job,
just to stay calm, okay?
224
00:11:24,856 --> 00:11:27,100
It seems like the passengers
coach might not be aware
225
00:11:27,134 --> 00:11:29,171
of what's going on right now.
226
00:11:29,205 --> 00:11:32,105
- [Man] This same passengers

228
00:11:34,797 --> 00:11:36,903
as far as the gentlemen

They were sitting in 2A and B.
231
00:11:48,777 --> 00:11:50,986
They are in the cockpit
with the pilots.
232
00:11:52,677 --> 00:11:54,230
- [Man] Please ask them is
there a doctor on board?
233
00:11:54,265 --> 00:11:56,025

235
00:11:58,821 --> 00:11:59,960

Despite their limited
knowledge, Boston controllers
241
00:12:10,764 --> 00:12:15,148
continue to track the planes
movements on primary radar.
242
00:12:15,182 --> 00:12:17,391
- [Operations] What's
going on on your end Ted?
243
00:12:17,426 --> 00:12:19,600
We contacted air
traffic control.
244
00:12:19,635 --> 00:12:22,051
They are gonna handle it so
they confirm the hijacking.
245
00:12:22,086 --> 00:12:25,054
So they're moving all
the traffic out of
this aircraft away.
246
00:12:25,089 --> 00:12:26,021
- [Operations] Okay.
247
00:12:26,055 --> 00:12:27,643
- He turned his transponder off.
248
00:12:27,677 --> 00:12:30,680
So we don't have a
definitive altitude form.
249
00:12:32,096 --> 00:12:33,580
We're just going by...
250
00:12:33,614 --> 00:12:35,651
They seem to think that they
have on a primary radar.
251
00:12:35,685 --> 00:12:37,998
They seem to think
that he is the Sunday.
252

257
00:12:48,319 --> 00:12:51,011

If you try to make any move,
278

you're gonna hurt
yourself and the airplane.
279

They can't find him.

There's been threats
in the cockpit.
557
00:26:58,824 --> 00:27:00,722
So we're doing the thing.
558

report to your company.

A major disaster's occurring

just flied into the city.
759

- [Man 2] It did, the
world trade center hit...
760
00:35:47,938 --> 00:35:49,940

766
00:35:57,810 --> 00:35:59,398
- [Narrator] Viewers
tuning in for updates
767
00:35:59,433 --> 00:36:03,678

of the second crash are
broadcast around the globe.
769
00:36:08,235 --> 00:36:11,962
What had once seemed
plausible as a freak accident,
770
00:36:11,997 --> 00:36:15,207
suddenly became an
act of aggression.
771
00:36:15,242 --> 00:36:18,037
Major news networks
begin to speculate
772
00:36:18,072 --> 00:36:21,248
if America was in the
midst of a terror attack.
773
00:36:24,872 --> 00:36:27,599

arriving at the scene,
775
00:36:29,532 --> 00:36:34,226
Jim Freely and Hob Oken said
it appeared to back sharply
776
00:36:34,261 --> 00:36:38,782
and smash directly perhaps
purposefully into...
777
00:36:39,714 --> 00:36:40,750
Oh my goodness,
778
00:36:40,784 --> 00:36:41,923

779
00:36:41,958 --> 00:36:43,339
- [Reporter 2]
There's another one.
780
00:36:43,373 --> 00:36:45,030
Oh my goodness,
there's another one.
781
00:36:45,064 --> 00:36:47,205
- [Reporter 3] This
seems to be on purpose.
782
00:36:47,239 --> 00:36:50,311
- [Reporter] Oh my
goodness, now it's obvious.
783
00:36:50,346 --> 00:36:52,555

788
00:37:10,020 --> 00:37:13,127
but I'm going to reconfirm that,
789
00:37:14,439 --> 00:37:16,337
then I'll get back to
you real quick, okay?
790
00:37:16,372 --> 00:37:17,787

another aircraft?

just hit the trade center.
797
00:37:44,365 --> 00:37:47,230

going to alert the military

We're going to shut this,
802
00:37:54,651 --> 00:37:55,549

gonna do what Jerry?

the airplanes down,

anyone go right now.

We're waiting to
hear from security.
809
00:38:10,218 --> 00:38:13,083

and I'm looking out on the TSD
858
00:40:09,441 --> 00:40:11,512
and I think that all the
parties out of Boston
859
00:40:11,547 --> 00:40:13,203
should have heightened
cost of security,
860
00:40:13,238 --> 00:40:14,308

you can bring up

that are out there
flying right now,
864
00:40:22,143 --> 00:40:25,630
to increase the cockpit
security vigilance on this day?
865
00:40:26,803 --> 00:40:27,701

the message out.

00:40:27,735 --> 00:40:28,771

American 77, Indy.

879
00:41:53,752 --> 00:41:56,375
Still haven't
gotten American 77.
880
00:41:56,410 --> 00:41:58,170
Last, he was at 35
going to Falmouth,
881
00:41:58,205 --> 00:41:59,862
so I don't know where he
is out there anywhere yet,
882
00:41:59,896 --> 00:42:01,173
so I'm still trying
to get ahold of them.
883
00:42:01,208 --> 00:42:02,416

Ladies and gentlemen,

00:43:02,890 --> 00:43:06,342
this is a difficult

00:43:06,376 --> 00:43:10,311
I, unfortunately

to Washington after my remarks.
903
00:43:13,349 --> 00:43:15,213
Today, we've had a
national tragedy.
904

Two airplanes have crashed
into the World Trade Center

to hunt down and to find those
folks who committed this act.
910
00:43:42,930 --> 00:43:45,726
Terrorism against our
nation will not stand.
911
00:43:47,555 --> 00:43:49,799
And now if you join me
in a moment of silence.
912
00:43:55,011 --> 00:43:57,738
May God bless the victims,
their families and America.

Say again slowly.
920
00:44:35,500 --> 00:44:36,881

a couple of minutes
ago screaming?
926
00:45:02,113 --> 00:45:03,562
- [Man 2] Yes, I did 797
927
00:45:03,597 --> 00:45:05,737
and we couldn't tell
what it was either.
928
00:45:05,772 --> 00:45:07,187
- [Man] Okay.
929
00:45:07,221 --> 00:45:10,569

you hear the sound read in.

- [Man] Roger, we heard
that also, thanks.
934
00:45:21,028 --> 00:45:23,962
I just wanted to confirm it
wasn't some interference.

- [Narrator] Shortly after the
first plane struck the tower,
936
00:45:33,213 --> 00:45:38,114
signals emerged that
an emergency on Flight
77 was underway.
937
00:45:39,771 --> 00:45:43,568
Flight 77 deviates off
its assigned course
938
00:45:43,602 --> 00:45:46,398
and switches off
its transponder.
939
00:45:46,433 --> 00:45:48,262
The plane goes dark.
940
00:45:48,297 --> 00:45:52,404
Not even the primary radar
systems pick up the aircraft.
941
00:45:52,439 --> 00:45:54,890
Dissimilar to the
other hijackings,
942
00:45:54,924 --> 00:45:58,859
no reports of threats
or deaths are made.
943
00:45:58,894 --> 00:46:02,242
Hijacked over an area
of poor radar coverage,
944
00:46:02,276 --> 00:46:05,486
attempts to contact the
plane are unsuccessful.
945
00:46:06,280 --> 00:46:07,695
- [Man] Who are you
trying to get hold of?
946
00:46:07,730 --> 00:46:09,283
- [Man 1] American 77.
947
00:46:09,318 --> 00:46:10,250
- [Man] Okay.
948
00:46:10,284 --> 00:46:11,458
- [Man 1] Well we
were talking to them
949
00:46:11,492 --> 00:46:12,839
and all of a sudden it's just...
950
00:46:12,873 --> 00:46:14,392
- [Man] Okay.
951
00:46:14,426 --> 00:46:16,670
- [Man 1] We don't really
know where it's target is
952
00:46:16,704 --> 00:46:18,120
and we can't get ahold of them.
953
00:46:20,536 --> 00:46:22,918
You guys tried them
and no response?
954
00:46:22,952 --> 00:46:24,160
- [Man] No response.
955
00:46:24,195 --> 00:46:25,472
[indistinct]
956
00:46:25,506 --> 00:46:27,267
- [Man 1] Yeah, we
had no radar contact
957
00:46:27,301 --> 00:46:29,338
and no communications with them.
958
00:46:29,372 --> 00:46:31,098
So if you guys could
try them again.
959
00:46:31,133 --> 00:46:32,065
- [Man] We're doing it.
960
00:46:32,099 --> 00:46:33,169
- [Man 1] Alright, thanks a lot.
961
00:46:33,204 --> 00:46:34,653
- [Man] We're doing
it, thank you.
962
00:46:34,688 --> 00:46:36,724
- [Narrator] The limited
contact left some controllers
963
00:46:36,759 --> 00:46:39,866
to believe the plane
had already crashed.
964
00:46:39,900 --> 00:46:44,905
Unnoticed by controllers,
Flight 77 changes course,
965
00:46:46,113 --> 00:46:48,909
flying undetected toward
the nation's capital.

[indistinct]
967
00:46:56,744 --> 00:47:00,300
- [Man] What the
fuck's going on?
968
00:47:00,334 --> 00:47:02,958
- [Man 1] Hallo, did you get
ahold of American 77 by chance?
969
00:47:02,992 --> 00:47:04,476
- [Man 2] No server, we
have an unconfirmed report
970
00:47:04,511 --> 00:47:07,479
that a second airplane hit
the World Trade Center.
971

[indistinct]
972
00:47:14,624 --> 00:47:16,972
American 11 was a
Los Angeles Flight.
973
00:47:19,215 --> 00:47:20,976
- [Man 1] It was, all right.
974
00:47:21,010 --> 00:47:23,150
I can't hear what you're saying.
975
00:47:23,185 --> 00:47:25,152
You said American 11?
976
00:47:25,187 --> 00:47:26,809
- [Man 2] Yes, we were hijacked.
977
00:47:27,775 --> 00:47:30,157
[indistinct]
978
00:47:33,643 --> 00:47:36,439
And I'm just having
an unconfirmed report,
979
00:47:36,474 --> 00:47:39,166
a second airplane just flew
into the World Trade Center.
980
00:47:42,929 --> 00:47:46,173
- [Halleck] 77, we were
talking to him according
981
00:47:46,208 --> 00:47:50,384
to Indianapolis center
about 45 minutes ago.
982
00:47:50,419 --> 00:47:53,111
And in Indy center,
983
00:47:53,146 --> 00:47:56,528
I don't know how he got
back to the Trade Center.
984
00:47:56,563 --> 00:47:59,152
I have no idea if that happened.
985
00:47:59,186 --> 00:48:00,153
- [King] Okay, it may not have,
986
00:48:00,187 --> 00:48:01,740
we have another call sign.
987
00:48:01,775 --> 00:48:03,708
Of course, we don't know for
sure any of these call signs
988
00:48:03,742 --> 00:48:06,193
right now but if we find
that it's your aircraft,
989
00:48:06,228 --> 00:48:07,746
we'll certainly give you a call.
990
00:48:07,781 --> 00:48:11,060
- [Halleck] Okay, so
you have two airplanes
991
00:48:11,095 --> 00:48:12,890
in the Trade Center?
992
00:48:12,924 --> 00:48:15,582
And you don't know who either
one of them are for sure?
993
00:48:15,616 --> 00:48:16,963
- [King] Yeah, that's true.
994
00:48:16,997 --> 00:48:17,929
- [Halleck] Okay.
995
00:48:17,964 --> 00:48:19,344
- [King] If I did, I
would share it with you.
996
00:48:19,379 --> 00:48:20,552
- [Halleck] Okay, thanks.
997
00:48:20,587 --> 00:48:21,105
- [King] Alright, bye Bill.
- [Man] Hello command center?
998
00:48:23,901 --> 00:48:25,281
- [Man 2] Yes sir.
- [Man] This is John Thomas,
999
00:48:25,316 --> 00:48:26,662
ops manager.
1000
00:48:26,696 --> 00:48:28,906
I think we need to let
everybody know this right away,
1001
00:48:28,940 --> 00:48:30,355
if they don't already.
1002
00:48:30,390 --> 00:48:33,980
American 77 was over which
is West of Charleston,
1003
00:48:34,014 --> 00:48:38,053
West Virginia, Flight
3350 to heavy Boeing 752
1004
00:48:38,087 --> 00:48:41,297
and disappeared off our
radar scope about 1256Z,
1005
00:48:42,126 --> 00:48:45,163
along with lost frequency.
1006
00:48:45,198 --> 00:48:47,131
We were treating it
as the loss started,
1007
00:48:47,165 --> 00:48:49,892
to do some procedures that
knotify search and rescue
1008
00:48:49,927 --> 00:48:52,343
and whatnot where when
American Airlines told us
1009
00:48:52,377 --> 00:48:55,242
they'd had some aircraft
or an aircraft hijacked,
1010
00:48:55,277 --> 00:48:57,313
we now believe that aircraft
may have been hijacked,
1011
00:48:57,348 --> 00:48:58,349
although no one has,
1012
00:48:58,383 --> 00:48:59,660
we have nothing to verify that.
1013
00:48:59,695 --> 00:49:01,386
But with the World Trade Center,
1014
00:49:01,421 --> 00:49:04,493
we could have another loose
aircraft out there somewhere.
1015
00:49:04,527 --> 00:49:06,391
Of course we wouldn't
necessarily be able to pick up
1016
00:49:06,426 --> 00:49:07,703
the primary there anyway.
1017
00:49:10,982 --> 00:49:12,432
- [Man] Okay.
- [Woman] But again, remember
1018
00:49:12,466 --> 00:49:14,296
nothing has been confirmed
as far as which aircraft
1019
00:49:14,330 --> 00:49:15,849
has hit the World Trade Center
1020
00:49:15,883 --> 00:49:18,265
but the other one we
have is information
1021
00:49:18,300 --> 00:49:19,887
headed towards Washington.
1022
00:49:19,922 --> 00:49:21,648
- [Washington Center]
Okay, let me tell you this,
1023
00:49:21,682 --> 00:49:24,789
we've also lost American 77.
1024
00:49:24,823 --> 00:49:28,448
- [Sr. Id Tech]
American 77 there.
1025
00:49:28,482 --> 00:49:30,001
- [Washington Center] Excuse me.
1026
00:49:30,036 --> 00:49:31,451
- [Sr. Id Tech] Where was
he supposed to head, sir?
1027
00:49:31,485 --> 00:49:33,901
- [Washington Center] Okay,
he was going to LA also.
1028
00:49:36,214 --> 00:49:38,044
- [Sr. Id Tech] From where, sir?
1029
00:49:38,078 --> 00:49:39,873
- [Washington Center] I think
he was from Boston also.
1030
00:49:39,907 --> 00:49:42,427
Now let me tell you
this story here,
1031
00:49:43,877 --> 00:49:46,086
in the Indianapolis center
was working this guy...
1032

who the perpetrators of
the heinous attacks were.
1202
01:00:49,956 --> 01:00:52,372
All trails point to one man,
1203
01:00:53,719 --> 01:00:55,272
Osama bin Laden.
1204
01:00:55,306 --> 01:00:58,137

[timer beeping]
1206
01:01:19,020 --> 01:01:21,505
Rescue efforts continue
at ground zero.
1207
01:01:24,163 --> 01:01:27,442
Recovery teams rescue
20 people from the pile.
1208
01:01:29,927 --> 01:01:32,550
The final survivor won't
be pulled from the rubble
1209
01:01:32,585 --> 01:01:35,346
until midday, September 12th.
1210

The white house.
1212

The president
addresses the nation.
1213
01:01:46,841 --> 01:01:51,086
- Good evening, today
our fellow citizens,
1214
01:01:51,121 --> 01:01:55,504
our way of life, our very
freedom came under attack
1215
01:01:55,539 --> 01:01:59,301
in a series of deliberate
and deadly terrorist acts.
1216
01:02:00,647 --> 01:02:04,790
The victims were in airplanes,
were in their offices,
1217
01:02:04,824 --> 01:02:07,413
secretaries,
businessmen and women,
1218
01:02:07,447 --> 01:02:10,002
military and federal workers,
1219
01:02:10,036 --> 01:02:13,039
moms and dads,
friends and neighbors.
1220
01:02:14,247 --> 01:02:17,664
Thousands of lives were
suddenly ended by evil,
1221
01:02:17,699 --> 01:02:19,459
despicable acts of terror.
1222
01:02:21,047 --> 01:02:23,429
These acts of mass murder
were intended to frighten
1223
01:02:23,463 --> 01:02:25,500
our nation into
chaos and retreat
1224
01:02:26,846 --> 01:02:28,710
but they have failed.
1225
01:02:28,745 --> 01:02:30,160
Our country is strong.
1226
01:02:31,575 --> 01:02:34,647
A great people has been moved
to defend a great nation.
1227
01:02:35,821 --> 01:02:37,926
Terrorist attacks can
shake the foundations
1228
01:02:37,961 --> 01:02:40,273
of our biggest buildings
1229
01:02:40,308 --> 01:02:42,759
but they cannot touch the
foundation of America.
1230
01:02:43,863 --> 01:02:46,072
These acts shatter steel
1231
01:02:46,107 --> 01:02:49,351
but they cannot dent the
steel of American resolve.
1232
01:02:51,250 --> 01:02:53,873
This is a day when all Americans
from every walk of life
1233
01:02:53,908 --> 01:02:56,842
unite in our resolve
for justice and peace.
1234
01:02:57,946 --> 01:03:00,259
America has stood down
many enemies before
1235
01:03:01,122 --> 01:03:02,675
and we will do so this time.
1236
01:03:04,297 --> 01:03:06,886
None of us will ever
forget this day,
1237
01:03:06,921 --> 01:03:09,716
yet we go forward
to defend freedom
1238
01:03:09,751 --> 01:03:13,755
and all that is good
and just in our world.
1239
01:03:14,963 --> 01:03:18,725
Thank you, good night
and God bless America.

- [Narrator] President
Bush updates his journal,
1242
01:03:30,082 --> 01:03:34,534
"The Pearl Harbor of the 21st
century took place today.
1243
01:03:38,021 --> 01:03:41,507
We think it's Osama bin Laden."
