Reply #1: Payne Stewart's Plane [View All]

[impe]

is the textbook case of our military responding to wayward aircraft... and it was just a matter of minutes.

Transponders are a meaningless argument for why the ATC and military did not respond, even when turned off, the planes
continue to appear on radar, our own resident ATC describes the scenario "as routine".

On 9/11 there were simultaneous war games being performed that morning, the theory presented is that they
weren't able to determine between the real and imagined threats....

Or, Military was ordered to stand down.

I tend to believe the war games confusion.
