    Timeline for the day of the September 11 attacks 1 Timeline for the day of the September 11 attacks The September 11 attacks of 2001, in addition to being a unique act of aggression, constituted a media event on a scale not seen since the advent of civilian global satellite links, round-the-clock television news organizations and the instant worldwide reaction and debate made possible by the Internet. As a result, most of the events listed below were known by a large portion of the planet's population as they occurred.[1] Significant events 6:00 a.m. 6:00: Mohammed Atta travels Colgan Air from Portland International Jetport in Portland, Maine to Logan International Airport in Boston, Massachusetts, along with Abdulaziz al-Omari. 6:45: Atta and al-Omari arrive at Logan International Airport. 6:52: Marwan al-Shehhi calls Atta from another terminal at Logan to confirm that the plans for the attack are set. 7:00 a.m. 7:35: Atta and al-Omari board American Airlines Flight 11. 7:40: The rest of the Flight 11 hijackers board the airplane. 7:59: American Airlines Flight 11, a Boeing 767 carrying 81 passengers and 11 crew members, departs 14 minutes late from Logan International Airport in Boston, its destination being Los Angeles International Airport (LAX) in Los Angeles, California. 8:00 a.m. 8:13: Flight 11 has its last routine communication with the FAA's Boston Center. 8:14: Flight 11 is hijacked when hijackers Waleed and Wail al-Shehri rise from seats 2A and 2B and stab two flight attendants.

  • Four Days in September 11-09-2001
    TP 13978 11-09-2001 Four Days in September 11-09-2001 Transport Canada wishes to thank several people who were instrumental in the production of this booklet: Alvin Cader for writing the text, Caleb Lauer for his tireless efforts in coordinating the project, and Tish Smith and Lyne Chartrand for their rapid work in transcribing interview tapes. 11-09-2001 Four Days in September Cat: T22-115/2002 ISBN: 0-662-66832-4 © Her Majesty the Queen in Right of Canada, (Transport Canada) 2002 Table of contents Prologue . 3 Foreword . 5 Four Days in September . 9 Anecdotes . 25 Final Reflections . 31 Prologue This booklet has been published to reflect the experiences of the dedicated men and women of Transport Canada during the four days when Canadian airspace was either completely or partially closed following the tragic events of September 11, 2001, in the United States. Many Transport Canada employees worked night and day during those four days, and long hours throughout the following weeks and months, to respond to the crisis. This booklet records some of their reflections about those four days. It is not intended to provide a comprehensive account of the crisis, but simply to remind us of their professionalism and dedication during a difficult and momentous time. Foreword Foreword I will never forget that day in September and, I’m sure, neither will you. It began routinely enough, just like it did for most of us. I was at the Montreal Convention Centre, speaking to the opening of a huge inter- national conference of airport CEOs and managers from around the world.
