This was very enlightening, and informative. I had no idea how long it took for these officials to make decisions and how out of the loop people were. Information seemed to travel slow to the people that need the information immediately. Overall, I was absolutely amazed at how Cheney ordered to shoot down the plane, which made me think about how Cheney probably wishes he never said that since the plane was already down before he ordered the take down. Haha, but the fact that information moved so slow and poorly, he ended up looking like a fool that made a real questionable decision. Then the fact that the Government couldn't pick up on the mistakes made by the terrorists and how many of the hijackers could still get on a plane today was shocking to me.
The audio of the terrorists after they hijacked the planes brought a level of realism to this story than just a narrator stating what they said ever could have. Audio clips in general make this story so interesting and hearing the emotion in each person's voice builds the visuals that are not seen since it is a radio program, especially the fireman at the end speaking about the footage that he is looking at. The only down part of this story was that every few minutes or so it would skip and go blank for about 3 seconds then come back, which was pretty irritating, but otherwise it was put together great.
