About this listen
"The story of the day, of 9/11 itself, is best told in the voices of 9/11," said Miles Kara, a retired Army colonel and an investigator for the September 11 Commission, in a recent New York Times report.
Included here is a selection of recordings of Federal Aviation Administration, Defense Department, and American Airlines communications from September 11, 2001. You will hear air traffic controllers, military aviation officers, airline and fighter jet pilots, as well as two of the hijackers, during two hours of that historic morning.
Transcripts and some of the recordings have been released previously, but not the complete "audio monograph", as it was described by the September 11 Commission. The recordings were originally intended to be part of the Commissions' 2004 report on the terrorist attacks, but were not ready in time for a legal review before the Commission finished its work. They have now been released in their entirety.

eye opening
This was a fascinating insight into the tragic events of 9-11. An eye-opening experience of what the ATC staff were doing to try and figure out what was happening.

Interesting listen
Well put together and interesting to hear the experience from the aviation support side. However I thought the ending was too abrupt. It missed eaving a epilogue to finish.

Very good compilation.
I liked the fact that the recordings were unblemished, given as they were at the time. It gave a real sense of the events as they were happening, and the rising bewilderment of the air traffic controllers. Much impressed by their professionalism. Good all round.

Good
Such a sad day. Interesting to hear about it first-hand and people's initial reactions. Some of the the sound isn't very clear but that's to be expected from radio comm chat. Good book 👍

Harrowing, yet excellent
Hearing the actual recordings from air traffic control and from the flights themselves, makes this a most interesting and harrowing audio book.
Sounds strange to say, yet this is an excellent insight to the events.
