Here,from Wikipedia:
"According to the 9/11 commission, the Langley pilots were NEVER briefed by anyone at their base about why they were being scrambled, so, despite Langley officials' having been given the order from NEADS to fly to Washington, the unbriefed pilots ended up following their normal training flight plan, due east, out to sea."
So,whose job was it to brief the pilots? Wasn't that the job of SOF Capt Borgstrum? So,why didn't he brief the pilots? Because he was ordered up as a third pilot in an unarmed F16. Who ordered him up? "NEADS leadership"=Col. Marr. The same Col. Marr who ordered full arms on the ANG fighters though he KNEW it would keep them on the ground over an hour! The same Col. Marr who refused a Nasypany's request to scramble Langley at 9:09 though he HAD TO KNOWN AA11 might still be in the air & headed towards DC. The same Col. Marr who refused to relay the shoot down orders to the pilots. The same Col. Marr who delayed scrambling Otis by making an unneeded call to Gen Arnold. Obstruction after obstruction after obstruction ALL coming down to ONE man over & over again. A pattern.
There are no pilots on alert, no pilots ready, no planes ready. lol, you don't have a clue, and are using the SOF claim again.
How is the SOF suppose to know where 77 is, no one knew. Zip. Have you tried to do a timeline of what was known when?
The only people in a position to know what was going on, and able to take action are on Flight 93. Passengers on Flight 93 figured out 911 in minutes, and you can't do the same given 11 years and the safety of your home, apartment, mom's basement, or where-ever. Not very good effort on your part, as you blame others because you can't figure out 911. People under the threat of death took action, and 911 truth can't do anything worthwhile.
If the SOF knew where to go, he would go there. If he knew it was terrorists and what to do, he may of broke all rules and run right out and shoot down 77. But 77 was not identified until after the impact; no one knew. No one knows were 93 is. Darn, so much for you fantasy.
You want based to launch planes because you know after 911 what happened on 911. You don't know much about anything other than quote-mining history commons, essentially hearsay. Good job
Yes, the SOF, if he knew what to do, could talk to the other pilots easier in the air, since his radios on the ground are limited to LOS. In the air he can lead, on the ground he has to coordinate; usually his communications are limited to passing information to ATC, and they talk to the fighters, and that would be unusual, since there is no mission before 911 over the USA, no real mission, only training. Big fail on 911 truth, they fail to study.
You think the USAF stood down, a lie you spread out of willful ignorance. Calling the military liars. You are so nice, what did you do on veterans day? Parade around calling service members liars? How did that go?
How many intercepts did NORAD do before 911 over the USA? List them.
When is the last time you sat alert? Pulled SOF duties? Pulled, oops... forgot we had to get out the super-nano-thermite every-time we "pulled" SOF duties, or "pulled" alert. 911 truth has to be the dumbest movement; I have a more respect for Bigfoot believers. Do Bigfoot believers blame the Government for their delusions? 911 truth does.
Are you on drugs? Do you even read what you write? Scoggins reported a target headed for DC. NEADS had no way of knowing it was a false report, so they treated it as an actual 'target' being reported by the FAA. If you have EVIDENCE, please present it. Otherwise, your comments sound like the rants of someone who has hit the bong one too many times.
And the answer is...
