Logan Airport

Logan Airport

Boston, MA

 

Flights 11 and 175 departed from this airport. The hijackers specifically chose Logan airport because of it's distance from the World Trade Center. It's thirty minute flight time to New York was a perfect time frame to hijack the planes and crash them before the military interfered.

 

All planes hijacked that day were headed for California. The choice of transcontinental flight was essential to the plot, because that meant maximum fuel capacity.

 

Yes, this is my picture, I took it from the plane.
