Links to the home page of Pilots for 9/11 Truth and to a site through which a used copy of a novel can be purchased (the book is in the collections of lots of public libraries as well). I haven’t visited the pilots’ site in years, but newcomers to it may find it worth their time.

Pilots for 9/11 Truth. A website. (Not much more need be said about the website, except that it blasts to smithereens the parts of the official story of the Sept. 11, 2001, mass murders that have to do with flying and commercial airliners, and that the the news media in general including “alternative” news media seem to have been uninterested in what it offers.) Click HERE for the website, which is a “reconstruction” of a former one.)

   

‘Rule of Nine, by Steve Martini. (Many will find the 2010 suspense novel a quick, fun read. It is mentioned here for the parts having to do with airliners and how they are located, or not, when in flight, and also where airliners no longer in service are parked. It is set in Washington, D.C., and out west possibly sometimes in the 1990s.) Click HERE for a promotion of the book, HERE for the author’s site, and HERE for Wikipedia’s entry on him.
