I have an incredible story to tell about this.
My ex-wife, who was German, was a stewardess flying from the UK to Germany. About 6 weeks before Sept 11 she came home shaken up saying there had been a weird incident on board a plane flying from an English airport to Hamburg.
A man of middle eastern appearance had sat in the first row reciting from the Koran really loudly and half way through the flight lit up a cigarette which was then already illegal.
The guy was asked to stop chanting and smoking repeatedly but refused. On arrival at Hamburg he was arrested and led to a holding cell for questioning by German police. Eventually he was released and nothing more was heard about it.
Fast forward to the aftermath of 9/11 and it was revealed that several accomplices to the ringleader Mohamed Atta had used several European destinations to purposely test the resolve and protocol of aircraft security. One of these destinations was the one used by my wife.
It was also revealed that German security had known about a cell of 'potential terrorists' in the Hamburg area but had no reason to carry out a raid.
My wife was also interrogated at Hamburg airport by police and asked for a full statement about the incident.
Had police acted they could well have averted one of the world's worst ever acts of terrorism.

Where was i ?? we had just booked a holiday to Florida that morning and then the plane hitting the Tower came on the news. I will never forget that day. Foolishly i believed the events as they were shown to me on my TV screen.
Since then there have been so many unanswered questions about that day, its ridiculous. The more you look into it the more you realise things are not what they seem. Enough said already.
I remember Elvis and Micheal Jackson dying too, you never forget what you were doing on those days. Same with Bowie, just getting over that one

My sister, her son & I were on vacation at our family's summer cabin.
We decided to drive into town that morning & started to notice how eerily quiet everything & everyone was, unaware at the time what had happened.
I ran into a 'general store' to grab some lemonade & fishing worms for the day & everyone just had a blank expression.
When I came back out to the car I told my sister "Something weird is going on"
We decided to cancel our fishing trip to 'The Graveyard' & headed back to the cabin, & that's when we first heard of what happened.
My sister completely freaked & we packed up & left as soon as possible & drove hours to our parents house to watch the news footage just in shock & awe.
I still remember how wild it was not to see a airplane in the sky that day & how many semis were on the interstate.
