Pennsylvania Air Traffic Control told Flight 93 would crash

[Micpsi]

Another smoking gun proving foreknowledge? Air traffic controllers at Johnstown Airport got the word that Flight 93 was going to crash and were told to evacuate the control tower. Hear about 2m07s into the video clip.

Now, I wonder who could have known with certainty that the plane was about to crash even though it was still 15 miles away from the tower and out of sight of the people working there?

Was the real reason for the order to evacuate the tower so that the controllers would not notice on their radar screens another plane approaching Flight 93 to shoot it down?

hmmmm...... a domestic flight gets hijacked on the same morning when 3 other domestic flights were also hijacked and crashed into things.... and people think this one might also crash.... such a great leap of thought?

FLIGHT CONTROLLERS TOLD THAT FLIGHT 93 WOULD CRASH

Air traffic controllers at Johnstown Airport got the word that Flight 93 was going to crash (note: NOT 'might') and were told to evacuate the control tower. Hear about 2m07s into the video clip.

An afterthought: why would the perps expose their foreknowledge of what was going to happen to Flight 93 by warning a bunch of air traffic controllers? They had to have some reason to do this in spite of the risk it posed if someone spotted the anomaly of a warning being issued long before anyone could have known the plane was going to crash. It might be argued that the authorities were concerned that the hijackers might crash Flight 93 into the control tower. That does not sound plausible to me - especially in view of the significant evidence indicating that there was no hijacked plane. It also ignores the fact that the flight controllers were not told to evacuate because of a worry that the plane might crash into the control tower but because the plane WAS going to crash. But no one could have known that except those who either had planned this or wanted people to think that Flight 93 did, indeed, crash. In either scenario, it indicates prior knowledge.

It seems to me to be yet another smoking gun that the events of 9/11 were orchestrated according to a script.

This is already covered in the Complete 9/11 Timeline. I wonder if this report of a plane was a false one--part of one of the military training exercises--yet mirroring the supposed path of Flight 93.

(Between 9:40 and 10:00 a.m.) September 11, 2001: Johnstown Airport Control Tower is Evacuated Following Reports of Approaching Plane
At some time shortly before 10 a.m.—as early as 9:40 a.m. according to one report—air traffic manager Dennis Fritz, in the control tower at Johnstown-Cambria County Airport, 70 miles east of Pittsburgh, receives a call from Cleveland Air Traffic Control reporting a large, suspicious aircraft about 20 miles south of them, descending below six thousand feet. Despite the clear day, Fritz and his colleagues can see no plane approaching through binoculars. Soon afterwards, in response to another call from Cleveland, Fritz orders trainees and custodial staff to evacuate the tower, yet he is still unable to see any plane approaching. Less than a minute later, though, Cleveland calls a third time, saying to disregard the evacuation: The plane has turned south and they have lost radar contact with it. [Pittsburgh Post-Gazette, 9/12/2001; Knight Ridder, 9/13/2001; Pittsburgh Post-Gazette, 10/28/2001; Longman, 2002, pp. 197] Wells Morrison is the agent in charge of the FBI’s Mon Valley Resident Agency, a satellite of its Pittsburgh field office. He too receives a phone call informing him of this flight, though he doesn’t say whom it is from. He contacts the Johnstown FBI office and instructs its agents to head to the Johnstown Airport. [Kashurba, 2002, pp. 109-110] Flight 93 crashes around 10:03 a.m. or soon thereafter (see (10:03-10:10 a.m.) September 11, 2001), going down in a field just 14 miles south of Johnstown.
