Hi folks,

I followed the instructions below, and found the results very weird.  I went "Oh my
God."  However, I did not recall that the flight numbers of the jets that were
crashed into the WTC had letters.  To check out the facts, I did a search on Google
("flight number" "first plane").  One of the links I found has a boat-load of
conspiracy theories.  Here it is:

    http://www.theregister.co.uk/content/28/22200.html

Furthermore, the claim that "Q3Q3NY" was the flight number of one of the planes that
hit the WTC is false.  Here are the facts:

First plane:  American Airlines, Flight No. 11, Intended route:  Boston, MA - Los
Angeles, CA
Second plane:  United Airlines, Flight No. 175, Intended route: Boston, MA - Los
Angeles, CA

The other planes involved in the terrorist attacks were:

American Airlines Flight 77, which took off from Washington, Dulles, and crashed into
the Pentagon.  It was originally heading for LA.  Finally, the plane that crashed in
Pennsylvania was United Airlines Flight 93, originating from Newark, NJ, and
originally bound for San Francisco, CA.

I hope the above put's this one to rest.  Have a great weekend!

Katim
