American Airlines changed their Wikipedia entry to state that Flights 11 and 77 never flew on 9/11.

The ip address shows the change by American Airlines!
What reasons would be in this change?

Wikipedia occasionally has entries changed, because anybody can edit. Many edits are done from faked IP addresses, and are caught. The present text is, as of 1:09 pm central daylight time, Aug 31, 2007:
"September 11, 2001 attacks: Two American Airlines aircraft were hijacked and crashed: Flight 77 (a Boeing 757) was intentionally crashed into the Pentagon and Flight 11 (a Boeing 767) was intentionally crashed into the North tower of the World Trade Center."
It took me a minute to verify the entry.

"American Airlines - "9/11 Didn't Happen"?"
Quoting someone else's headline don't cut it here,when the article says nothing of the kind. Here is the direct quote from Wikipedia as edited 4-25-2006, and folks I checked and the IP address belongs to American Airlines. I tried to trace the edit of 4-23-2006 and had no luck, perhaps some one at AA saw this edit and tried to explain it, however by not giving the real flight numbers, if 11 and 77 did not fly, only complcated matters.
"Two American Airlines aircraft were hijacked and crashed during the September 11, 2001 Terrorist Attack: Flight 77 (a Boeing 757) and Flight 11 (a Boeing 767). Although these flights were daily departures before and a month after September 11, 2001. Neither flight 11 nor 77 were scheduled on September 11, 2001. The records kept by the Bureau of Transportation Statistics (www.bts.gov/gis/) do not list either flight that day. "
Where does it say 9/11 didn't happen? All it says is flights with those numbers didn't happen, but did not reveal the numbers of the flights that crashed. Since the FBI, not the NTSB is in charge of the investigation, you can't check with them.

Now go to this site and I defy you to produce the statement that thes flights were not scheduled on that day. There is much a long drawn out searching to find any info here, and I doubt anyone spent the required time to check..

Can you say HOAX?
Did you actually look at American Arline's Wikpedia entry? I did, and here's what it says:
Two American Airlines aircraft were hijacked and crashed: Flight 77 (a Boeing 757) was intentionally crashed into the Pentagon and Flight 11 (a Boeing 767) was intentionally crashed into the North tower of the World Trade Center.
Caution: Don't believe everything you read on the internet. Check it out for yourselves and make an informed decision.

Go to wikipedia and type in 9/11. They didnt change anything. It still calls out flights 11 and 77.

Wow Wikipedia ALWAYS has the Truth!
There's no chance an idiot inside the office of AA could be surfing the web on his lunch break, right?
If you learn about the world from Wikipedia you are gullible

What makes you think American airlines changed it? just about anybody goes on wikipedia and changes crap all the time. that's why it's such a useless site if your looking for factual information.
