If you don't think they were in the crash - What do you think happened to those passengers?
WCPO's Liz Foreman posted the original news report stating that United 93 had landed in Cleveland, but says the whole thing was just a simple mistake on a very confusing day. The story stated that flight 93 landed in Cleveland," admits Foreman on her station's blog. "This was not true." She claims it was an error in the Associated Press wire report that was corrected in later updates. After she discovered the mistake, she removed the link to the story, but not the story itself; Google searches still found it on WCPO's site until 2003, when someone alerted her to the number of conspiracy blogs that had picked it up. Foreman deleted it, but the damage was done.
Vernon "Bill" Wessel is the director of safety and mission assurance at NASA Glenn. "A KC-135 had to come back to the hangar," says Wessel, as if realizing for the first time that this aircraft may have caused some undue confusion. A team of scientists from the Johnson Space Center in Houston had flown to Cleveland on this KC-135 to conduct micro-gravity experiments. (Also known as "the vomit comet," KC-135's are used to simulate weightlessness. The plane soars to high altitudes, then falls back toward the ground, giving passengers a few seconds of zero-G experience.
Hmm - so how was a black military jet confused with a commercial airliner? The KC-135 also has 3 engines and a probe sticking out the back, and no-one noticed this????
United identified the plane as Flight 93.
On behalf of the airline CEO James Goodwin said: "The thoughts of everyone at United are with the passengers and crew of these flights. Our prayers are also with everyone on the ground who may have been involved.
"United is working with all the relevant authorities, including the FBI, to obtain further information on these flights,"

Mark Bingham, 31, of San Francisco owned a public relations firm, the Bingham Group. He called his mother, Alice Hoglan, 15 minutes before the plane crashed and told her that the plane had been taken over by three men who claimed to have a bomb. Hoglan said her son told her that some passengers planned to try to regain control of the plane. "He said, 'I love you very, very much, ' " Hoglan said.

Yes, there were corrections offered on numerous occasions. They made a mistake and confused the landing of Delta FL 1989 with FL 93. They later corrected this error.
By the way, rather than Googling this and finding dozens of conspiracy sites repeating the same ill-informed nonsense, why not just call up the paper and ask to speak the the reporter directly?

I also spoke in depth with a woman who lives a few hundred yards behind the crash site and who was sequestered in her home for two weeks. She tells of finding debris in her yard, including pieces of credit cards, pieces of metal, and shreds of clothing. The FBI made her close her blinds when the gather the debris from her yard, but she snuck a couple of photos of them picking up stuff anyway.

How did all this debris bounce out of the hole to land in her yard? Nice mention of the FBI making her not look when they "cleaned" up.

Apparently the debris did not bounce out of the hole. That's an intentional mis-characterization on your part.
And what do you mean by nice mention of the FBI making her close her blinds?
Anyway, the explosion broke a window in her house. That was her only damage. The explosion sent debris flying up in the air and towards her yard.
What is your explanation for the debris in her yard?
The FBI came between 10:02 and 10:30 an littered her yard with debris? C'mon Griff, at some point you have to face the reality of all the detailed accounts.
A plane crashed in Shanksville. Talk to the first responders. Talk to the people who were there, and who are STILL there going about their daily lives.

I usually don't respond to sarcastic diatribe...but nice try. Can we be a little more adult and actually discuss things instead of going the sarcastic route?

It seems a rather difficult and unnecessary place to plant debris deliberately so I assume some sort of random element, such as an explosion.
