84. You state -
"He delineates a lot of easily verifiable details in the book. Particularly, he meticulously describes how he and his captain Ron Maxwell were waiting for the departure of United 175 next in line. Quoting the book"

When in actuallity he does not meticulously describe anything. Lynn Spencer did not quote Steve Miller, she describes what happened to him, based upon information that was most likely provided by him. We are dealing with heresay because it is not a quote from Steve Miller. If she has a tape of Steve Miller saying what was quoted above then we would have what I consider testimony from Steve Miller. All we have is Lynn Spencer's interpretation of what he said and what he meant.

"After their short stint on the ground, Miller was ready to fly the plane back to New York and looking forward to his opportunity to the more favored and relaxing job of flying the airplane. On the taxi out in Boston, they waited at the runways hold short line, where Miller looked up to watch a Boeing 767 take off, United Flight 175." Quote from book.

Can a runway have multiple hold short lines?
If Miller is at the hold short line while watching flight 175 take off, does that mean his flight is next in line?
