I'm actually reading that right now. It's extremely interesting how disorganized the communication was between all the various government departments (FAA, NORAD, ATCs in Boston and New York), and how truly unprepared aviation bodies were for having hijackers use planes as weapons. There were protocols in place to deal with hijackings in general, but nothing for when planes themselves get turned into weapons.

Does anyone here remember 9/11? What was it like? I wasn't born yet, but all the videos online I've seen look really crazy.

I thought Franzen's the corrections and freedom are the best books on the early aughts culture, defined almost entirely by the 9/11 attacks and their cultural fallout. Otherwise, delillos essay. Falling man I think.
But what do I know, my sole knowledge of literature is hanging around this board nigh a decade or thereabouts.

i was at work. in the uk it was mid afternoon when it happened. every news website was overloaded. we had to watch the news on australian websites. i remember laughing, not because it was funny, but because it was so utterly surreal, like they had announced that godzilla had stomped tokyo or something.
my company had people flying to the US that day. their plane was turned back mid atlantic. i was due to fly the week after. i didn't go.
