911 Flight 93 September 11 2001
911
Flight 93
September 11, 2001. Was a nightmare for American’s everywhere; many lost their family members and loved ones. Only two hours after the Pentagon had been attacked and 3 and half hours after the Twin Towers had been knocked down. The President and our Military had received terrifying news. The United Airlines had called 911 stating that they’re flight 93 was scheduled to fly from Newark International Airport in New York to, New Jersey, to San Francisco International Airport than into San Mateo County, in California. But in New Jersey the plane had started traveling east, straight towards Washington D.C. When General Dave Martin heard the news his first thoughts were “It was a living nightmare, It was like somebody coming into your home and burning everything you stand for and your loved ones in front of your eyes.” United Airlines had kept track of exactly where the plane was going and tried several time to make contact with flight 93 without success. The President and his family were evacuated from the White House right away. Flight 93 had been hijacked by four terrorists, there leader of this mission was Ziad Jarrah. The hijackers boarded the plane’s cockpit and overpowered the flight crew approximately 46 minutes after takeoff. Ziad Jarrah, a trained pilot, then took control of the aircraft and directed it east in the direction of Washington, D.C. The hijackers' specific target is believed to have been the White House. After the hijackers took control of the plane, many of the passengers and flight attendants were able to make phone calls and discover that attacks had already been made by other hijacked airlines on the Twin Towers in New York City and the Pentagon outside Washington, D.C. Some of the passengers then attempted to ambush all four of the Hijackers. During the attempt, however, the plane crashed into a Field in Stonycreek Township, near Shanksville in Somerset County, Pennsylvania, about 65 miles, southeast of Pittsburgh and 130
