Burnett made a second call, by which time Deena was watching the World Trade Centre collapse on television. Burnett fired a fusillade of questions: 'Are they commercial places?'
Jeremy Glick learnt the same news from his wife, Lyz, in upstate New York. 'Is that where we're going too?' he asked her. 'Unlikely,' said Lyz, 'there's nothing left to crash into.'

From 9.57, the cockpit recorder picks up the sounds of fighting in an aircraft losing control at 30,000 feet - the crash of trolleys, dishes being hurled and smashed. The terrorists scream at each other to hold the door against what is obviously a siege from the cabin. A passenger cries: 'Let's get them!' and there is more screaming, then an apparent breach. 'Give it to me!' shouts a passenger, apparently about to seize the controls.

During this time, there apparently are no calls from Flight 93. Several cell phones that are left on record only silence. For instance, although Todd Beamer does not hang up, nothing more is heard after he puts down the phone, suggesting things are quiet in the back of the plane. [Longman, 2002] The only exception is Richard Makely, who listens to Jeremy Glick’s open phone line after Glick goes to attack the hijackers. A reporter summarizes Makely explaining that, “The silence last[s] two minutes, then there [is] screaming. More silence, followed by more screams. Finally, there [is] a mechanical sound, followed by nothing.” [San Francisco Chronicle, 10/17/2001] The second silence lasts between 60 and 90 seconds. [Longman, 2002]

Since the south tower was the first tower to collapse and it happened a few minutes AFTER they started rushing the cockpit it makes no sense at all what the wives said in the calls.
No one will ever know how the plan to attack the terrorists was hatched,, except for an indication to The Observer from an analyst of the recorder that the scuffle began not at the back of the plane but at the front

So the only explanations are.....
1) The clocks on the FDR and CVR were wrong.
2) The paper misquoted the wives or they were completely mistaken about what they said and saw the last moment they talked with their husbands.
Got it.
