Forgive me if any of these details are wrong, but:
Flight 93 is the plane that was hijacked and aiming for somewhere major - Washington? - until some hero passengers challenged the hijackers and the plane consequently crashed in a field.
How did we deduce that this is what happened, and furthermore, how did we actually put names to the main passengers who helped? (there was one or two main guys - how do we know who they were and if this is so?)

Judging from what we heard on cell phones, and from the fact the plane crashed & didn't make it to Washington, people think the passengers rushed the hijackers.

One of the passengers may have said "let's roll" just before they charged the hijackers

At the end, you can hear the hijackers saying to "pull it down" in Arabic (crash it), then "Allah is the greatest" over and over.

EDIT: It's absolute fact that cell phones can work from planes. The service is not great, but they work. Also, the people the passengers spoke to recognized their voices.

I bought and have read the book "Let's Roll" by Lisa Beamer whose husband, Todd Beamer, was on Flight 93. According to the book, several people on the plane made calls from their cell phones explaining that the plane had been taken over and threats of a bomb. After being told that the Twin Towers and Pentagon was hit, some of the men on the back of the plane decided to do something and told this to their family members over the phone. The book states that over two dozen phone calls were made from the plane that morning. Facts from the receivers of the phone calls were pieced together after the crash and this is how we know who was involved in the takeover of the plane and who the heroes were.

Washington is really a major and all know city and is definitely suitable deliver a secondary or just visit this city. with hotelbye you will discover more. One of many icons of Washington and the whole America could be the famous White House, the official residence of the President of the United States. The home of every leader except George Washington, it absolutely was originally developed by James Hoban in 1792, and following being burnt down by British makes in 1814 was rebuilt in 1818. Though travels of the inner including the East, Blue, Green, and Red Areas; the Ballroom; and the State Dining Room must certanly be reserved well in advance, every tourist to Washington may wish to see this legendary developing, at the least from the outside. Nearby to the White House would be the intricate 1833 Greek Revival Treasury Building and the 1871 Executive Office Building, one of the very most striking old government houses in Washington.

It was supposedly going for the White House. But it did not get there, and the story is, that the passengers managed to overcome the terrorists. There are a number of discrepancies here. First, it did not crash where they said it DID crash. People in that area, have been interviewed, and denied any signs of a plane crash. It crashed in another place. Someone from the flight, telephoned his mother, and introduced himself to his mother, with his full name. i.e Hi mom this id David Turnbull. Well you don't usually 'phone your mother, and have to introduce yourself to her. Go to www.inforwars.com, and www.prisonplanet.com and look around for articles and interviews on 9/11. My other question is, that since 9/11, people have always gathered at the Twin Towers Site, but we have never heard anything from the relatives of the plane that landed in the field, somewhere. And the relatives don't seem to go there and put flowers on the site. No Media reports on this. To add to the confusion of that day, the Army,Air force and Navy just 'happened' to be on a huge training effort involving ALL three, so there was no protection. If you had tried to get anywhere near New York in a plane before 9/11, you would have had at least six jet fighters around you. The other interesting thing is. When the London bombings happened, their Air Force, Navy and Army in Britian. were also 'engaged' in a practise drill. I notice that Dimblonde, does not allow anyone to contact her. So how will you kow what she is saying is for real. Interesting Avatar.

People on the plane were on cell phones with members of their families at the time of the high-jacking. Ergo, "Let's Roll" - not lies.

edit: People do leave flowers at the field in Shanksville where the plane crashed in PA every year, they just talked about it in the news; just because I personally have not been there does not mean that it didn't happen.

the recording device in the plane and mobile phones from passengers and the people who were driving the plane probably would have had communication with the control tower at the airport

Nobody knows infact i will go as far and say it never even happened.

WHY

Did you know that cellphones are not designed for calls from the high altitudes at which most airliners normally operate. An aircraft, having a metal skin and fuselage, acts like a Faraday cage, tending to block or attenuate electromagnetic radiation. One can make a cellphone call from inside an aircraft while on the ground because the weakened signal is still close enough to the nearest cellsite (relay tower) to get picked up. Once above 10,000 feet, however, calls rarely get through, if ever. The idea of being able to use a cellphone while flying is completely impractical. Once through about 10,000 feet, the thing is useless, since you are too high and moving too fast (and thus changing cells too rapidly) for the phone to provide a signal.

But the most puzzing thing of all, where they said the plane crashed only a few people seen it, its not something you would miss and not hear.

Now don't get me wrong my heart goes out to the people who died, but the story the goverment have told us just does not add up for the reasons i said.

Because they have a passenger list and mobile phones recordings from passengers plus the tape from the pilots area. Its been well orchestrated so I am certain that what we have heard is true

From all the cell phone calls from the doomed passengers to their loved ones. Don't you read the news? See the movie, at least. It explains all the details.
