Here is another little talked about, but important, detail re Flight 93, the FAA, and the Johnstown airport.

It turns out that the FAA told the Johnstown ATC to evacuate their control tower as well because Flight 93 was heading straight towards their airport from the SOUTH.

Problem is, Johnstown is North of Shanksville, where Flight 93 crashed. The official flight path shows Flight 93 heading SE from Cleveland towards Shanksville, going over Johnstown from the north.

And yet the FAA told Johnstown that Flight 93 was heading at them from the South. This caused the head ATC at Johnstown to scout the skies towards the south, towards Somerset, with his binoculars.

Here's a link to a news story from the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette from Oct. 2001 that documents this:

quote:

Sometime shortly before 10 a.m., the direct line from Cleveland Air Traffic Control rang inside the control tower at Johnstown-Cambria County Airport, 70 miles east of Pittsburgh.

Did Johnstown tower have any radio contact with a large aircraft about 20 miles to its south? Supervisor Dennis Fritz and controller Thomas Hull picked up binoculars -- the tower has no radar -- and scanned the horizon to the south. The day was clear and, from the highest point in the area, they could spot radio towers in neighboring Somerset County. A large plane would have stood out.

"We didn't see a thing," Fritz said.

Hull went on the radio and broadcast an open message: "Aircraft 20 South of the field, contact Johnstown tower ... ."

Ninety seconds later, Cleveland called back. The plane was now 15 miles south and heading directly for the Johnstown tower.

"We suggest you evacuate," they told him.

Fritz ordered trainees and custodial staff out of the 85-foot tower. He and Hull stayed at their posts and scanned the south with binoculars. It occurred to Fritz that the plane must be flying below the level of the mountain ridges around them.

Forty-five seconds after telling Fritz to evacuate the Johnstown tower, Cleveland Air Traffic Control phoned again.

"They said to disregard. The aircraft had turned to the south and they lost radar contact with him."

It was 10:06 a.m.

Fritz and Hull studied the horizon to the south. They couldn't see a thing.

So why would the FAA call Johnstown ATC from the direct line at Cleveland's airport to tell them Flight 93 was heading towards them from the south?

Do you realize the possible significance of this???

After the WTCs were hit, there were only two other hijacked aircraft left in the sky. However, the FAA provided misinformation on the location of BOTH Flight 77 and Flight 93. And, the FAA ordered ATCs out of the only towers that could have tracked the real location of Flight 93.

Plus, HOW could the FAA have mistakenly believed that Flight 93 was south, heading north towards Johnstown, and mistankely believed that Flight 11 never hit WTC1, and was heading south towards Washington?

Identifying the location and bearings of hijacked airliners isn't something that the FAA would just guess at, especially when their entire purpose for indentifying the location would be to help direct NEADS where to send the fighters.

And what's worse, why didn't the 9/11 Commission bother to investigate how and why the FAA provided the misinformation? Somebody is covering something up -it's just a question of what is being covered up.
