The US Air Force Shot Down Flight 93

I don't get into conspiracy theories that much, but this guy has quite a story to tell.


Quote:
"I am an Air Force veteran. I was serving at Langley AFB, Virginia on Sept. 11. (not to be confused with CIA headquarters at Langley, VA). The "Alert Squadron" of 4 F-16 Falcons also stationed at Langley AFB was scrambled AFTER the "plane" crashed into the Pentagon. Because of my position as a ground equipment mechanic, I had access to the flightline operations that day. My friends were Crew Cheifs and Weapons Loaders, among other professions on the flightline that day. One of my [unusual] duties that day was to drive a Loader (personal friend) along with a rack of live missiles (AIM-9's and AIM-120's) across the active runway to the Alert Squadron and drop them off. I was towing equipment to the flightline, so when it was time to go back and pick up the Loader (and our missile trailer) I was unable to do so, but another member of my Flight (a good friend, and later roommate) did go. According to my roommate (and I later confirmed with the Loader) the Loader was completely silent most of the trip back to our side of the base, after they crossed the active, he spoke. "They shot one down." JJ replied "WHAT?" Loader:"One of those 16's came back with one less missile than it left with" That was all. As they pulled back in to the squadron area, The loader was whisked away by his commanders for debriefing. I didn't see him for a few days, but when I did, he said he couldn't talk about it, but he confirmed that what my roommate had told me was true.

The US Air Force shot down Flight 93. I haven't told this to many people. I told my parents and other family members shortly after I left the military. They didn't believe it. I figured no one else would either. I kept my mouth shut. Everyone was dedicated to the president and the country (not really) And anything that went against the Official, media delivered story was viewed as unpatriotic. I knew that I loved this country, so I kept my mouth shut. I just can't do that anymore. I know that I don't have any documents to prove it, and I have no way of knowing where the others involved are now days, so I can't prove anything. All I have is my word. and with God as my witness that is the truth."
Some of the comments calls this guys out as a liar claiming that Langley has never had any F-16's stationed there, only F-15's and later F-22's.

His reply to those who doubt his story.

Quote:
okay... several think I am lying.
At the time I was A1C, I worked at 1st EMS, AGE flight.
It is possible these planes were launched before the pentagon was hit, although my recollection is that they launched after. I wasn't watching TV at the time, I was rushing equipment around the flightline, as we were also trying to get some broken F-15's off the ground before our deadline to have EVERY flight capable F-15 airborne. I am anonymous, because I had a SECRET clearance at the time, and I could face legal action if this just happened to be classified information, though I have no knowledge that it is. In regards to total number of aircraft at the "alert" squadron I don't know. Four aircraft could normally be seen at the alert hangar. The squadron was a detachment of the 119th FW of the North Dakota Air National Guard. This detachment was stationed at langley in 2001 and flew F-16's. I do not know the pilot or his name, and as I said, a weapons loader conveyed the story to me, I am just passing it along. The story may or may not be what happened, but I am telling the truth about what I experienced, and what conversations I had. If you really need to know my name, post an e-mail addy and i can e-mail my info to you. I just don't want someone who would try to do harm to me to know anything about me if they find out I am saying something I am not supposed to be saying. There weren't that many people in my flight, maybe 100, probably less. I worked in Blue CAT (Combat AGE Team). And normally supported the 94th Fighter Squadron, in which there were 27-29 F-15C/D aircraft. I left the military before the F-22's came on line.
All I have is my word, so please if you don't think the story is true, say that instead of calling me a liar.
The whole story is very intriguing to say the least.

United Flight 93 Secondary Debris Field

No debris along the flight path? This source should make very clear that Flight 93 was beaking up in the air, consistent with a missile strike, BEFORE it came down.

Pennsylvania state police officials said on Thursday debris from the plane had been found up to 8 miles (13 km) away in a residential community where local media have quoted residents as speaking of a second plane in the area and burning debris falling from the sky.

Szupinka said searchers found one of the large engines from the aircraft "at a considerable distance from the crash site."

"It appears to be the whole engine," he added.

Szupinka said most of the remaining debris, scattered over a perimeter that stretches for several miles, are in pieces no bigger than a "briefcase."

Well...interesting but...one thing I have found is that "sources" like this guy don't go on record and no one knows who it is.

(1) If you think about it...anyone could make up this story and post it on a conspiracy website, then BOOM it's off running.

(2) What I do know about the debris field is that several experts thought it was consistent with a jet going into the ground in a dive at 500+miles per hour.

(3) it takes a lot of cooperation to hide the fact that "we" shot it down.

Money talks and since very little of it seemed to be going towards stopping events such as 9/11 ... what were they spending all those billions on?

Could be true, or could be part of the story.

All I know is whatever got shot down, it WAS NOT a Boeing in the vicinity of Shanksville.

I don't know if I believe that or not. But if flight 93 was headed for a populated area it would have been the responsible but sad thing to do.

True. I don't know if I believe it or not. I do know that TS-SCI cleared troops take their level of OPSEC and COMSEC pretty seriously. For this guy to keep a secret until he separated is not totally unbelievable. I only had a secret when I was active duty. Still I had to get debriefed every time I took trips to Moscow to load stuff on a C-5 for a flight to Nevada. It was part of the Russian INF treaty. I had to tell them what I did, who I talked to, what I had for dinner every day I was there, even if it was only for 24 hours.

Usually the flight crew and officers got a fucking tour of Red Square while us enlisted peons did all the work on the flight line.
