FLIGHT 93 tells the story of the passengers and crew.thier families on the groud and the flight controllers who watched in dawning horror as United Airlines Flight 93 became the fourth plane on the day of the worst terrorist attacks on American soil:September 11,2001.
On that day,19 terrorists hijack four planes (American Airlines Flight 11,American Airlines Flight 77,United Airlines Flight 93,and United Airlines Flight 175; two of the planes,United Airlines Flight 175 and Flight 11,are used as missiles and deliberately flown into each of New York City's Twin Towers,while American Airlines Flight 77 is used in a similar fashion at the Pentagon,in Washington,D.C..They are the three most deadly of all aircraft hijackings.In the fourth case the intention is likely the same but the passengers,learning of the fate of the other three planes,attacked the cockpit,causing the hijackers to crash the plane in rural Pennsylvania,killing all on board.By official count,2,752 people died at the World Trade Center,189 died in Washington,D.C.,and 44 died in Pennsylvania.
Remember these 19 faces,they made the tragedy.
