I Didn’t Know There Was a FIFTH Plane on 9/11…

For 25 years, we have understood the basic outline of what occurred on September 11, 2001. Four commercial airliners were hijacked: American Airlines Flight 11 and United Airlines Flight 175 were flown into the World Trade Center, American Airlines Flight 77 was directed into the Pentagon and United Airlines Flight 93 crashed into a field near Shanksville, Pennsylvania, after its passengers attempted to retake control. Almost 3,000 people lost their lives that day. However, amid the chaos of that morning, there were reports of many more aircraft being treated as potential hijackings...

However, ultimately only four were confirmed as hijacked. But what if there had been a fifth aircraft meant to join the others? What if this fifth plane was on the ground at the exact wrong moment and what if it never became part of the attack simply because it couldn't take off? In this video, we will explore the mystery surrounding United Airlines Flight 23. Unlike many theories related to 9/11, this case has a documented history. The FBI did investigate whether Flight 23 could have been the target of an aborted hijacking attempt. However, it remains unresolved whether it actually was.
