4 AnswersHigher Education (University +)7 years agowhy didnt police/fire department fly helicopters to the twin towers on 9/11?
maybe im wrong, but in all the footage it seems like it could have worked if parachutes were flown up or even if they flew to the side or the top and just loaded as many people as possible onto helicopters. would smoke have been a problem? also, couldnt they have just been loaded onto helicopter, then landed on nearby (safe) building, as much as possible? Maybe there wasnt enough time?
