An airline pilot can instantly send a hijack alert by a number of methods, including a button on the joystick. On 9/11 four airliners went rogue yet none of the eight pilots sent an alert. Flight 11, Boston-LA, diverted N shortly after take-off and, at the edge of a large "radar corridor" (an area beyond FAA and NORAD mechanical radar coverage), the on-board transponder (which sends flight data such as identity, altitude, and GPS position to air-traffic control) was switched off. The plane then reappeared on radar, turned SE, and crossed paths with Flight 175, Boston-LA, before going on to hit the North Tower of the World Trade Centre at 8:46 (a flash of light glinted from the plane's nose a split second before impact). Flight 175 continued SW until, at 8:47, it passed in close proximity to Flight 93, Newark-San Francisco, whose take-off had been delayed by 25 minutes. Just before the closest point of approach 175's transponder was switched off, the plane then swung around and flew NE to hit the South Tower at 9:03 (another ray of light shone from the plane's nose a split second before it hit its target). Flight 93, after diverting N to meet 175, proceeded W at cruising altitude and entered a large radar hole near Cleveland. Flight 77, Washington DC-LA, flew 300 W after take-off passing through a substantial N-S radar corridor over W Virginia. 77 turned, its transponder was switched off, and it re-entered radar darkness heading E. The plane then appeared on radar, flew all the way back to DC and looped to hit the newly renovated, reinforced west wedge of the Pentagon at 9:37 killing a number of accountants and destroying their paperwork (all CCTV footage of the impact was then seized by the FBI and has never been released). After flying W for 45 minutes Flight 95 was finally warned - by a United dispatcher acting on his own initiative - "Beware any cockpit intrusion" (9:23-24). Three minutes later the first spurious cellphone call (from 35,000 ft) was received, "Our plane has been hijacked ... call the authorities" (the resultant 9-1-1 calls would help establish the 93 crash site as an FBI crime scene). At 9:27 the pilot replied, "Ed, confirm latest message please - Jason". One minute later 93 dropped 700 ft and the pilot yelled over the radio "Mayday" and "Hey get out of here, get out of here - get out of here" (no formal hijack alert was sent). At 9:32 air-traffic control were informed, "We have a bomb on board". The jetliner turned S. A flight attendant contacted UA by Airfone at 9:36 and notified them of the hijacking. At 9:39 air-traffic control were warned once again "We have a bomb aboard". With its hijack status clearly established 93's transponder was switched off and it re-entered radar darkness heading for Washington DC. Incredibly, the Defence Department claim that they were unaware of Flight 93 until 10:07 - one minute after the 9/11 attack. "An aircraft at Eglin AFB would be painted and numbered as an exact duplicate for a civil registered aircraft belonging to a CIA proprietary organization in the Miami area. At a designated time the duplicate would be substituted for the actual civil aircraft ... The actual registered aircraft would be converted to a drone.... From the rendezvous point the passenger-carrying aircraft will descend to minimum altitude and go directly into an auxiliary field at Eglin AFB ... When over Cuba the drone will begin transmitting on the international distress frequency a 'MAY DAY' message stating he is under attack by Cuban MIG aircraft." Department of Defence, Operation Northwoods, March 1962 Drafted by the Joint Chiefs of Staff and submitted to Defence Secretary Robert McNamara on 13 March 1962, the DOD's Top Secret Operation Northwoods proposal - for false flag attacks on American civilian and military targets to be used as the pretext for a war on Cuba - was rejected by President John F Kennedy. Among the possible scenarios outlined in "brief but precise" detail was a fiendish plane-swap deception involving the replacement of a "chartered civil airliner" with an exact duplicate. Passengers would board the mock-up at a regular airport and the plane would take off as normal. The original registered aircraft would be converted to a drone at a secret-state facility. At a pre-planned position the two would rendezvous, the piloted aircraft - carrying a black-ops team "boarded under carefully prepared aliases" - would descend below radar and head to an "auxiliary field" at a nearby Air Force base. The original airliner, under remote control, would continue along the duplicate's flight path until, at a suitable location, it would be blown out of the sky by "Cuban MIGs" (i.e. on-board explosives remotely detonated). Retrieved in 1997 under Freedom of Information laws by a federal agency dealing with documents related to the assassination of President Kennedy, the Defence Department's preliminary Northwoods proposal - "suitable for planning purposes" - also recommended planting aircraft debris and phoney evidence at crash sites and called for the development of a "Communist Cuban terror campaign" within US cities to be blamed on Cuban agents and refugees.

The one eyewitness to 93's ostensible "crash" was Lee Purbaugh, a scrap-metal worker hired only the day before: "I saw it rock from side to side then, suddenly, it dipped and dived, nose first, with a huge explosion, into the ground." According to the 9/11 Commission Report - based on flight data supplied by the Pentagon and FBI - 93 supposedly rolled over at 580 mph and then "crashed" upside down.
