as it happened and it is surreal. You have to remember in 2001 there was NO GPS and no social media. If there had been then the NYC Fire Chief's initial report after witnessing the direct aim at the North Tower would nave warned everyone that this was a deliberate attack and to be prepared. He knew it was no accident. The pilots and passengers knew what was going on but they didn't know about the 3 other planes until it was too late. Tragic!
