Your not the only one. After brief word that it may have been shot down by an F16, the scenario of the passenger saying he saw white smoke and then was abrubtly cut off (and this was the last recorded call apparently from the a/c - possibly negating the commandeering by the other passengers, why has this not been correlated and reported by the press??) and then the FBI refusing to deny that it had been downed followed by an almost complete news blackout..
Around 9.45am the President gave the order that any a/c may be downed if neccesary... I think its fairly safe to assume the a/c was intercepted by the airforce... given that at least an hour had passed since the attempted WTC F16 interception... come on.... *at least an hour* since the attempted WTC... it's blatant to me that interception had occured...
I'm not saying the downing was wrong (if indeed that was the case), although I think its best we were told the truth. Whats to bet the CVR/FDR come up a blank.
