"He suggested at the time that they send mujadhidin to study in the flight institutes and use large planes, such as a Boeing 747-400 or larger, not small planes. Sheikh Mohammed did not like to depend on the military training that was given in Afghanistan because he considered it impractical."

Briefly:
The Sears tower was on the shortlist.
Nawaf Al Hazmi was paired with Hanjour.
Given that Hani already had a visa when he met KSM, why did he get instruction on how to apply for a visa?
KSM through Hani would be the best pilot, so he sent him to the Pentagon.
Only 10 of the 13 muscle hijackers attended the hijacker training camp at the start of 2001. What (and who) were the other three and what were they doing then?
Al Hawsawi is a key player in the operation, but according to the 9/11 CR he only helped a couple of hijackers transit Dubai.
KSM "stated that Mustafa al-Hawsawi was his point of contact in the UAE while Sheikh Mohammed was planning the 9/11 attacks," but according to the 9/11 CR, Al-Hawsawi arrived in the UAE in late spring 2001 and was then unfamiliar with its banking procedures.
He says Al Hawsawi is in Dubai doing the coordinating the whole time. Well, I guess we can rip that page out of the 9/11 CR.
The Al Shehri brothers were well-travelled?!!!
Read the statement at the end.
