- Ahmed Alghamdi is mentioned living in the US before the 9/11 Commission said he arrived (I believe this is because it's a different man)
- It mentions Atta liquidating a stock account he's had from 1998 (but is this THE Atta, or someone else?)
- Specific details about Amy Sweeney's phone call I don't think I've seen mentioned before
- American Airlines suggesting that hijackers family members may have tracked Flight 11/ 77 by computer
- Details on the contents of Atta's rental car and details on a Hollywood parking ticket
- Someone in FBI custody telling a guard that there were eight hijacker pilots
- Hani Hanjour at the same flying school as Nawaf al-Hazmi. Did we know that? I'm not sure that we did
- And assorted other bits and pieces on the hijackers, other suspects and possible incidents
