Even though the whole thing is too sad to even chuckle when tickled, there's one crude fact bound to make everybody laugh:
Some magazines and webpages stated that the terrorists were able to practise the approach on the wtc in ms flight simulator 2001.
Hey!Close elementary schools!They teach you how to write there!! With that knowlege, you could write threatening letters!
Abolish chemistry lessons!Pupils learn how to make bombs there!
Physical edication is to be forbidden! They train you in order for you to be able to punch people in the face!
I know everyone's trying to put blame on anyone in order to feel better, but this is ridiculous.

All I've seen thus far is a statement of the possibility, not a condemnation. It's difficult to deny that they could have done exactly that form of "training", isn't it? I don't think, however, that anyone is taking that as a cause of the tragedy or suggesting that the game should be changed for it.

FACT: One (maybe more) of the terrorists have been taking flight school in Canada for several years..
Fact: The plane that hit the pentagon was heading for AirForce1 or the Whitehouse.. The plane ran out of fuel.. (Thats what I've heard.)
BTW: What is this that I heard 2 hiJacked planes are still flying around?? WTF they would have run outta fuel wouldn't they have??
FACT: I couldn't even get the flight simulator to work on my computer!!

Many of the pilots in the terrorist group learned to fly at a school in Florida. That was one of the first big breaks the FBI got. I haven't heard anything about a Canadian connection. I think it's highly unlikely as all 19 of the hijackers have been confirmed to have been living in the States for the last several months.
The plane that hit the Pentagon was a transcontinental flight so I highly doubt it ran out of fuel. What do you think has been burning the last couple days?
There were 4 planes hijacked and all have been accounted for. To answer your question, yes, if there were 2 other planes flying around they would have run out of fuel by now. But US airspace had been closed from Tuesday to (I think) Thursday and any rogue planes would have been found by the various Close Air Patrol flights the military was conducting over the US and directed to land. If they would not, the military had authorization to shoot them down. This has been confirmed today by Vice President Dick Cheney.
