Page "Communication during the September 11 attacks" Paragraph 2

According to 9 / 11 Commission staff statement No. 17 there were several communications failures at the federal government level during and after the 9 / 11 attacks.

Perhaps the most serious occurred in an " Air Threat Conference Call " initiated by the National Military Command Center ( NMCC ) after two planes had crashed into the World Trade Center, but shortly before The Pentagon was hit.

The participants were unable to include the Federal Aviation Administration ( FAA ) air traffic control command center, which had the most information about the hijackings, in the call.
