Number of aircraft used in 9-11 attack.?

I have heard that there was a fifth plane that was going to be used.

The grounding of all planes kept it from taking off.

Source- Touching History by Lynn Spencer. Page 105.

It was United Airlines flight #23 . From JFK to LA.

Update:

self B = Good article. But all known reported facts.

The book was written from first hand interviews with pilots. There would have been atleast five aircraft involved if the grounding order was not given.

    There was a white plane hovering over the area on that day, perhaps controlling all the actions and demolishing the buildings by missiles. There is a total silence about this plane in the KH Commission report. You can see the white plane in Youtube before the towers were demolished.

    It is rumored amongst airline personnel that there might have been even more.

    Stories abound of ME men on planes on taxiways that did not get to take off before the grounding order getting antsy and angry when they found their aircraft was not going to be leaving.

    Have no link or proof; however, just talking to airline people.
