I was wondering why the terrorists from 911 went to flight schools in the United States?

Yes, partially true. We have always had the bad habit of trusting everyone until they proved unworthy of it. These men had nothing to prevent them. Plus, they paid a lot of money for flight school.

You make a very valid observation.

The answer to your question is simple - we were asleep at the wheel. The Islamic terrorists had been committing murder and terror on Americans all over the globe since 1979 - yet we felt secure within our own borders.

Judging from the obvious division presently in this country, we may be destined to repeat the same mistake again.

That 43 lbs of heroin was found on board the Lear Jet owned by Wally Hilliard, the owner of Atta’s flight school, just three weeks after Atta enrolled – the biggest seizure ever in Central Florida – was just bad luck. That Hilliard was not charged shows how specious the claims for conspiracy truly are.

That Hilliard’s plane had made 30-round trips to Venezuela with the same passengers who always paid cash, that the plane had been supplied by a pair of drug smugglers who had also outfitted CIA drug runner Barry Seal, and that 9/11 commissioner Richard ben-Veniste had been Seal’s attorney before Seal’s murder, shows nothing but the lengths to which conspiracists will go to draw sinister conclusions.

Reports of insider trading on 9/11 are false, because the SEC investigated and found only respectable investors who will remain nameless involved, and no terrorists, so the windfall profit-taking was merely, as ever, coincidental.

That heightened security for the World Trade Centre was lifted immediately prior to the attacks illustrates that it always happens when you least expect it.

That Hani Hanjour, the pilot of Flight 77, was so incompetent he could not fly a Cessna in August, but in September managed to fly a 767 at excessive speed into a spiraling, 270-degree descent and a level impact of the first floor of the Pentagon, on the only side that was virtually empty and had been hardened to withstand a terrorist attack, merely demonstrates that people can do almost anything once they set their minds to it.

That none of the flight data recorders were said to be recoverable even though they were located in the tail sections, and that until 9/11, no solid-state recorder in a catastrophic crash had been unrecoverable, shows how there's a first time for everything.

The terrorists entered the US as students in order to have a valid reason and studied how they can directly their targets with planes. It was a good plan and the execution was accurate except for the one that did not hit the target. US intelligence was not good in detecting the said plans.

Silly. To learn more about their target. And no they most likely would not be caught in any country they planned to target at that time because something at that scale had never happened before. Good old boys.

Alot of pilots come to America to further training, to learn to fly passenger/large aircraft. My question is i wonder if they had any flying experience beforehand - possibly with smaller planes?

BTW, Watch out. Youve opened a bag of worms. The conspiracy nuts will jump all over this one for certain.

Because the US of A has the best damned flight schools in the world, gaddammit!!!!!

There is a documaentary about 911. When looked at clearly the planes where government planes and a rocket was launched at the pentagon. I forgot what it's called but it's seriously got me thinking.

I would guess that they went to flight schools in the US to learn the territory.
