Gov't: Hijacker Crashed Flight 93 on 9/11
By TED BRIDIS, Associated Press Writer
WASHINGTON (AP) — U.S. investigators now believe that a hijacker in the cockpit aboard United Airlines Flight 93 instructed terrorist-pilot Ziad Jarrah to crash the jetliner into a Pennsylvania field because of a passenger uprising in the cabin.
This theory, based on the government's analysis of cockpit recordings, discounts the popular perception of insurgent passengers grappling with terrorists to seize the plane's controls.

This was the lead story on ABC Evening News, which shocked me, since it was a small wire service story in this morning's NY Times. The ABC report closed with the comment that one family menebr wondered what else the government has not been upfront about. I wish there had been footage of that quote.
