This dude warned the FAA and the FBI about Hani Hanjour (the suicide pilot of American Airlines Flight 77) months before 9/11 but they did nothing about it.
quote:
Rod “MAC” McAlear, Major USAF (Retired) flew in the Air Force and as commercial airline pilot for over 23 years. One week in March 2001, while working at a Flight School in Phoenix, AZ, he taught a ground school with a student named Hani Hanjour, the hijacker ultimately responsible for flying a plane into the Pentagon.
During the course of the ground school, he and the school reported the suspicious individual to the FAA, as mentioned on page 521 of the 9/11 Commission Report. He has never spoken publicly about his experience until now.

Saw this one about an airport worker who had a run-in with Mohamed Atta on 9/11.
He says his gut instinct was telling him that Atta was obviously a terrorist, but that profiling was against the law.
Haunting detail--he says after he retired he would see cars driving down the street and the driver looking back at him was Mohamed Atta.
His initial reaction when he heard that the flight Atta was on had crashed into the WTC was--'Those poor guys are dead.'
They weaponized our own kindness against us. In a world of killers, the United States is far too kind to foreigners.

I remember them saying that there was no interest in learning how to land.

He must be one hell of a teacher because homes did things in a 757 that pilots with 30 plus years couldnt do.

When you’re not concerned about the safety of those on board you don’t really have reservations about trying steep turns.

Back to your original statement.
Can you tell us what skill(s) he displayed that a 30 year(s) veteran could not perform?

How many times did FBI brass ignore field agent reports?
How many times did the CIA ignore Cofer Black and the Bin Laden Unit Alec Station?
It was an inside job by the CIA

Is this the part of the story like the Kennedy assassination where they claim “Some of the best sharp shooters couldn’t pull off the same shot”?

Damnit
I hate them all, but Atta's picture pisses me off the most.
