The events of September 11th 2001 are etched on the minds of people
all over the globe. This book examines the fate of Flight 93.
Believed to be heading for Washington DC, the plane crashed in a
field in Pennsylvania miles away from its target. Jere Longman, a
New York Times journalist, reconstructs the story of the flight on
a technical level, as well as on a personal level, profiling the
passengers, the captain, the co-pilots and the hijackers. It pays
special tribute to four men in particular: Mark Bingham, Thomas
Burnett, Jeremy Glick and Todd Beamer. From calls made to their
loved ones, we know that these men had learned of the attacks on
the World Trade Centre and the Pentagon and had formed a plan to
overcome the terrorists to prevent another such disaster. Bringing
together all available material, including interviews with eye
witnesses, phone calls, the captain's tape and the plane's black
box, Longman reveals what went on aboard the fated plane.
