Mineta: "During the time that the airplane was coming into the Pentagon, there was a young man who would come in and say to the Vice President...the plane is 50 miles out...the plane is 30 miles out....and when it got down to the plane is 10 miles out, the young man also said to the vice president "do the orders still stand?" And the Vice President turned and whipped his neck around and said "Of course the orders still stand, have you heard anything to the contrary!??"

mineta doesn't know what the orders were, but it seems like the obvious thing to do would be to shoot down the plane, so if the aid is asking if the orders still stand, and he says yes, then it's pretty reasonable to assume that the orders had something to do with not shooting the plane down.

There are about 500 or so odd unanswered question left out of that report. They claim they were not "privy" to much of the information that is coming out now.

Taken out of context, that could mean anything. What exactly were his orders? do you have a complete transcript?
