Chapter 409: 911 Incident
United Airlines Flight 175.
on the plane.
The situation is obvious, the situation is crisis.
There was chaos in the cabin, and the flight attendants were trying hard to maintain order: "Please trust us! Please believe that we can handle all this! Please trust us!"
Another black flight attendant, holding a megaphone, shouted hoarsely, "Please be quiet, stay calm!" We have contacted the control tower and the operations center has responded. Rest assured, we have this to solve!"
This is common sense when taking an airplane, if you have an accident, you must not mess around, and you must trust the professionals.
Once there is chaos, everyone will definitely die!
If you leave the problem to a professional to solve, you may still have a chance to live.
Although it did not cause serious unrest, the cries of women and children were heard throughout the cabin.
Many have taken out their phones and contacted family members in an attempt to make a final call.
Unfortunately, the number of lines is limited, and many people are unable to complete the call.
A lucky young man named Pete contacted his father......
"Dad, I love you, I love Mommy, I love this home!"
"I don't know, I don't know...... They said the hijackers assassinated two captains and wounded a flight attendant. They controlled the piloting of the plane!"
"No, no mess! They should have learned how to fly an airplane, but ...... The direction in which the plane flew, very quirky......"
"Statue of Liberty...... God, it's New York, and they're flying toward New York......"
It was a flight to Los Angeles, and New York was clearly not the right direction.
The mobile phone signal suddenly cut off, and Pete tried to connect again, but he didn't expect to be connected again.
This time, his voice has completely changed, driven by the frantic emotions of the passengers in the cabin, he burst into tears: "Dad, I'm finished, I'm finished!"
"The situation on the plane is very bad!"
"God, the plane is shaking, it's unstable......"
"It's descending, it's not the direction of the airport!"
"God, I love you, Daddy, I love you!"
……
At 9:03, United Airlines Flight 175 crashed into the South Tower of the World Trade Center.
……
American Airlines Flight 77.
The hijackers, armed with knives and tear gas, had taken control of the plane. They emptied the first-class cabin and drove all the passengers to the back of the plane.
At this time, the unarmed passengers had no room to resist at all.
Mobile phones have become the only way for them to connect with the world.
Because of the limited number of routes, passengers must leave their best hopes for the most useful communication calls.
"I'm coming! My name is Barbara Olson, and my husband is Ted Olson, Deputy Attorney General of the U.S. Federal Prosecution Service! I can ask him for help if I can. ”
A middle-aged woman in her fifties stood up decisively.
At such a critical moment, she can be in danger, talk moderately, and express herself clearly, and she can basically infer that she is not lying.
Soon, Barbara Olson dialed her husband's phone, "Honey, I'll cut it short, the plane was hijacked! There are 6 people in total, brown skin, covered with red gauze, and they have weapons!"
"There are no guns, at least I didn't see them, but they have control knives and box knives!"
"The captain has been killed, and the flight attendant is contacting the tower via an emergency call, but with great difficulty. ”
"It's certainly not in the direction of Los Angeles, maybe ...... We are returning to Washington/Fullen. Yes, there are people who know enough about this, you can confirm that we are returning!"
"What do we do now?"
What to do?
At an altitude of 10,000 feet above the ground, not to mention the deputy prosecutor general, even the prosecutor general and the president have nothing to do.
The plane, within 20 minutes, had completely lost contact with the ground.
At 9:29, the autopilot was canceled and the directional flight was changed to a target - the Pentagon!
At 9:34, the plane made a forced landing and began to dive.
At 9:37, there was a loud bang, and the 77th flight of American Airlines hit the Pentagon!
……
United Airlines Flight 93.
Thankfully, the flight to San Francisco was delayed by 25 minutes.
When the plane took off, the captain had already gotten the news that the World Trade Center had been hit by two hijacked planes.
When the hijackers began to attack, the captain and the co-pilot fought to the death.
The flight attendant was also mentally prepared and told all the passengers the most urgent complaint.
"The captain has been killed! The World Trade Center has been hit, we can't wait to die!"
Although the flight attendants did not explain these news, some passengers with great powers have learned about the latest development situation through their mobile phones.
The brave people began to call for it immediately, came to the emergency phone, and shouted to all the passengers: "Everyone, rush to the first class! Fight with them, the cowardice at this moment is waiting for death!"
The hijackers were apparently aware of the chaos behind the plane, and through the in-flight channel, they issued threats: "We have hijacked the plane, we have bombs, and we are returning to the airport! Everyone, go back and sit down, or everyone will die together!"
For a moment, there was a loud bang, crash, shouting, and the breaking of glass and plates in the cabin.
Mess.
But in this critical moment, there will be warriors who will stand up and "get into the cockpit and fight with them!"
"No matter, I'll go first!"
"Rush!"
A female passenger also stood up and shouted, "Let's get on it together!"
At this time, the latest news came again, "The Pentagon has been slammed! They are going to attack the White House! Fight, fight with those mongrels!"
For a time, the atmosphere of declaring war on the entire aircraft was mobilized.
Almost all the men stood up bravely, holding all the weapons at their disposal, plates, belts, backpacks, leather shoes, and iron chopsticks...... Rushed in the direction of the cockpit.
Five minutes later, chaos ensued in the cockpit.
The plane lost control.
In the brave counterattack of the passengers, the plane failed to fly to Washington/Fullon as originally planned, quickly broke its wings and crashed into a rural clearing.
……
In one day, four planes were hijacked.
The whole of the United States, in a mess.
Don sat quietly in his office, his eyes deep.
Not to mention New York, even Hollywood's Donn Pictures felt the atmosphere inside and became panicked and frightened.
"Don, NASDAQ and NYSE are all closed urgently! including the futures market, the bond market and the foreign exchange market!"
Scott Swift was a little glad that he returned to Los Angeles to talk to Apple about business.
Otherwise, in New York, maybe he would have been there.
The World Trade Center is the center of financial institutions around the world, and it is estimated that hundreds of elites at the level of presidents and vice presidents in the financial field will be killed when the twin towers are hit.
Of course, as a perennial financial worker working on Wall Street, Scott Swift has a hard heart!
In this time of national crisis, he still pays attention to finance!
Don received the call and pouted repeatedly.
When the incident really happened, he was a little at a loss and had a complicated heart.
But listen to Scott Swift...... How do you feel faintly mixed with a little excitement?
Belch...... Make money!
Oh, yes!
The stock market is stopped, and the government is introducing policies.
But so what?
When the market reopens, who can turn the tide?
The NYSE has only closed twice in its history.
It stopped once in 1914 when World War I broke out, and once in 1933 during the Great Depression.
In such a major situation, even if the government comes to the rescue of the market, even if the Federal Reserve starts the money printing machine, it is doomed to be useless.
"Well, keep a low profile, grief is the keynote. ”
Don took a deep breath, his tone calm.
On the other end of the phone, the high-spirited Scott Swift couldn't help but laugh. ()
