9/11 COMMISSION STAFF REPORT ON FEDERAL AVIATION FAILINGS

A 120 page report made by the staff of a sub-committee of the National Commission on Terrorist Attacks Upon the United States, also known as the 9-11 Commission. This report was created a month after the famous and well publicized and distributed 9-11 Commission report. A declassified copy of this staff report was not release to the National Archives and Records Administration until the following year. This staff report goes further in detail about the scope and depth of intelligence that was provided to federal aviation officials about the threat of a terrorist attack than the July 2004 report of the 9/11 Commission. "The fact that the civil aviation system seems to have been lulled into a false sense of security is striking not only because of what happened on 9/11 but also in light of the intelligence assessments, including those conducted by the F.A.A.'s own security branch, that raised alarms about the growing terrorist threat to civil aviation throughout the 1990's and into the new century," the report said.

Subjects covered in the report include: Chronology of American Airlines Flight 11, United Air Lines Flight 175, American Airlines Flight 77, and United Air Lines Flight 93. The hijacker's Tactics. Civil Aviation security procedures at the time of the hijackings

The report shows that federal aviation officials were provided with intelligence reports warning about the potential threat of Osama bin Laden and Al Qaeda. Some of these reports mention hijackings and suicide attacks not connected to aviation. The report finds that the FAA. Received 52 intelligence reports from their security branch that mentioned bin Laden or Al Qaeda from April to September 10, 2001. The staff report finds no evidence that the government had specific warning of a domestic attack. The emphasis of threat concerns dealt with overseas threats.

Despite this, the staff discloses that the Federal Aviation Administration sent a warning to U.S. airports in the spring of 2001 stating that if "the intent of the hijacker is not to exchange hostages for prisoners, but to commit suicide in a spectacular explosion, a domestic hijacking would probably be preferable." The staff report finds that federal aviation officials were "lulled into a false sense of security," and "intelligence that indicated a real and growing threat leading up to 9/11 did not stimulate significant increases in security procedures."
