This website purports to have transcripts of the flight controllers/pilots conversations. You have to hunt for them - they don't spell everything out for you. When you find the one for 175, go to the very bottom and read what they say transpired at the very end - a confusing statement from the pilot about having heard a blurb on their radio about "staying in your seats ...", and that it was "cut out".

Nothing more from 175.

No, I am madder than spit about this!!!! There is nothing I can see that in any way shape or form represents anything hinting of "NATIONAL SECURITY" on these transcripts.

So, why, WHY!!!!!, didn't they just play this tape on the very day that it was recorded?????? We could all hear that the controller couldn't raise the pilot after that odd comment about "cut out", and, we could also wonder what gave anybody the idea that this plane had been hijacked?

I haven't studied this website thoroughly (I am too disgusted right now), but, if anyone wants to plow through them and post here as to your opinions, please do. I am not even sure if this "transcript" is accurate - how can we ever trust this piece of shit government to everl let us in on the real story?

I am only interested in the first correspondence that something was wrong, and, according to this website, it was basically silence from the airplane after the pilots made that odd comment about "cut out". One would think that the first thought would be that the plane's radios had problems, not that it had been hijacked.
