In the event of a hijacking, pilots are trained to “squawk” the universal hijack code (7500) on a transponder, thereby notifying FAA controllers on the ground.
Although it only takes two or three seconds, the fact that not one of the eight pilots performed this required action casts serious doubt on the hijacker story. Read more …

According to GTE telephone supervisor Lisa Jefferson, who took the phone call from Todd Beamer, the phone remained connected long after UA 93 crashed. Reporting that he had left the phone after saying “Let’s roll,” she wrote that the line “just went silent.” Although she held on for “probably 15 minutes”, she “never heard a crash.” She added: “I can’t explain it. We didn’t lose a connection because there’s a different sound that you use. It’s a squealing sound when you lose a connection. I never lost connection, but it just went silent.”

Elizabeth Woodworth was interviewed for 30 minutes by PRN Host Stephen Lendman (on the right) about the four Consensus Points dealing with the telephone calls from the 9/11 airliners. Emerging evidence raises serious questions regarding connections to the ground, call durations, and conflicting witness reports. For example, two of the alleged cell phone calls reportedly made from 25,000 to 35,000 feet were left on voice-mail showing Caller ID. This, according to cell phone experts of the day, would have been impossible, as connections from these altitudes could only last for seconds, if indeed they were possible at all.
The 9/11 Consensus Panel is pleased to welcome Mr. James W. Douglass as an Honorary Member.
Mr. Douglass, a Christian theologian and peace activist, is the author of many books, including “JFK and the Unspeakable” and “Gandhi and the Unspeakable.” He has engaged in civil disobedience to the Vietnam War, nuclear weapons, and the Iraq War. He and his wife Shelley are co-founders of Ground Zero Center for Nonviolent Action in Poulsbo, Washington, and Mary’s House, a Catholic Worker house of hospitality in Birmingham, Alabama. His book, “JFK and the Unspeakable” was described by Oliver Stone as “the best account I have read of this tragedy and its significance.”
