Pilots for 9/11 Truth Forum has posted an examination of the Flight Data Recorder (FDR) supposedly from the Pentagon wreckage of American Airlines Flight 77 that suggests that the cockpit door was never opened during the flight. This discovery appears to be yet another piece of evidence disproving the official story about what happened at the Pentagon on 9-11. The data from the FDR comes from Warren Stutt’s website at: http://www.warrenstutt.com/AAL77FDRDecoder/index.html
Here is the key paragraph of the posting from the Pilots for 9/11 Truth Forum by Rob Balsamo:
On the morning of September 11, 2001, American Airlines Flight 77 departed Dulles International Airport bound for Los Angeles at 8:20 am Eastern Time. According to reports and data, a hijacking took place between 08:50:54 and 08:54:11 in which the hijackers allegedly crashed the aircraft into the Pentagon at 09:37:45. Reported by CNN, according to Ted Olson, wife Barbara Olson had called him from the reported flight stating, "...all passengers and flight personnel, including the pilots, were herded to the back of the plane by armed hijackers...". However, according to Flight Data provided by the NTSB, the Flight Deck Door was never opened in flight. How were the hijackers able to gain access to the cockpit, remove the pilots, and navigate the aircraft to the Pentagon if the Flight Deck Door remained closed?

Sheila Casey of the Rock Creek Free Press (Washington, D.C.) wrote an article entitled “Flight 77 Cockpit Door Never Opened During 9/11 ‘Hijack’” dated December 15, 2009, that lays out the FDR data problem very clearly:
Pilots for 9/11 Truth has reported that the data stream from the flight data recorder (FDR) for American Airlines flight 77, which allegedly struck the Pentagon on 9/11, shows that the cockpit door never opened during the entire 90 minute flight. The data was provided by the National Transportation Safety Board (NTSB), which has refused to comment…
The official story about flight 77 is that five Muslim terrorists brandishing box cutters forced their way into the cockpit and herded two pilots, four flight attendants and all the passengers to the back of the plane. This story came into being via Ted Olson, US Solicitor General, who told CNN — that he received two phone calls from his wife Barbara Olson, a passenger on the doomed flight. Ted Olson’s story changed several times. Sometimes he claimed that the calls from his wife were made from seat back phones, other times that she used her cell phone….
It was the FBI that revealed the evidence that decisively disproves Ted Olson’s story. In the Zacarias Moussaoui trial in 2006, the FBI presented a report on the cell phone calls from all four 9/11 flights. Their report on AA77 shows that there was only one phone call from Barbara Olson, but that it was an unconnected call lasting zero seconds. So Ted Olson either lied about receiving calls from his wife or was deceived into believing he received calls from her….

This new evidence, showing that the cockpit door never opened during flight, is another nail in the coffin of the official story about flight 77. Clearly, if the cockpit door never opened, then hijackers did not storm the cockpit and herd the pilots to the back of the plane. The data, which originated from the government, does not support the government’s story.

In addition to the door not being opened, there is the fact that the government will not even try and explain how small men with only, supposedly, small blades as weapons could possible take all 4 cockpits instantly. Not ONE pilot among 8 involved had enough time to trip a switch on the yoke and radio a message. it only takes a split second for a pilot to flip the radio switch; we are expected to believe that in all 4 cases, the cockpit doors were somehow breached...both pilots, times 4, had to be either attacked and killed or disabled, and their bodies removed from the cockpits so the highjackers could assume the controls..OR convince the pilots through intimidation to give up command and control and hand the plane over meekly.
Barbara Olson supposedly told Ted that both pilots were herded to the back..impossible. Those pilots would have tried to resist, or make radical flight maneuvers meant to throw off the highjackers, all pilots interviewed stated they would never give up the plane to men with only a threat or small blade. Chuck Burlingame was a strapping former soldier and fighter type who never would have allowed anyone to take him out short of death. To believe that he would meekly walk to the rear of the plane is an insult to his memory.
First, how did the ' highjackers' even get into the cockpits? In all cases,in flight rules mandate that the door remain locked. Unless a pilot for some reason goes aft or opens the door for a crew member, it stays locked. To believe that in all 4 cases, the doors were either opened by sheer coincidence just minutes after takeoff to allow an attack ( and remember that this scenario also demands that the highjackers would have to be in first class to notice when s stew would open the door, and or take advantage of same ), is beyond reason.
So all 4 jets had to be breached...then, the highjackers would have to confront the pilots. Somehow, we are asked to swallow, the small men with boxcutters mamanged to convince all 8 pilots to give up, or they would have to kill and remove them...in either case, the fact is:
There were NO deviations of the planes during any of the ' takeovers!! Flight levels remained constant, there were no radical movements by any plane...not so much as a shudder. Imagine that!!
Imagine the odds...not ONE pilot among 8 could send a call or trigger the highjack alert...not one pilot among 8 moved the yoke enough to be noticed...no attempt to turn the plane and try and repel the attackers, as they surely would have in at least most of the cases..everything stays perfect and level until the planes turn and perfectly fly unimpeded to their targets, supposedly piloted by men who failed to rent a Cessna just prior to the ' attacks'.
We are never told by the official story a likley and plausible story about HOW the takeovers could happen...in a way that does not insult us. But NO! This subject CANNOT be answered with any rational answer OTHER than remote control. it is an insult to the intelligence of any rational and unbiased observer to be told that we can disregard all the evidence and accept odds that defy mathematical comprehension. We are asked to accept the following as enough of an explanation: " Somehow the cocpits were invaded and the crews overwhelmed ". Thats it.
The subject is like Bldg. 7, a glitch in the matrix that only is noticed by those seeking the truth. the others are content to go about their lives satisfied that if anything were drastically wrong surely SOMEBODY would do something about it....this subject is a weak point that the perpetra(i)tors knew in advance would be difficult.
Their hands were tied; they had to place highjackers in the cockpits flying the planes to fit the rest of the story, so they make sure that the highjackers had SOME KIND of weapon...even as feeble as a boxcutter, so if pressured they could say that the doors were slashed or people stabbed or slashed to force entry, even though no evidence of that was ever presented. They knew that if looked at closely no one could believe the story, and all manner of influence, no doubt, was brought to bear to make this a taboo subject at all, and only mentioned in the most general manner and then forgotten.
The government acts as if HOW the attack and takeover happened was of no import and that it must have been as easy as knocking on the door and asking the pilots to please go away...unreal.
ONLY remote taking answer all the questions. Anything else relies on a foundation that cannot bear the weight of even a casual glance.
