How Did the Hijackers Do It?

According to the official 9/11 story, on 9/11/01, four teams of hijackers, armed with nothing more than box cutters and knives, over-powered the flight crews on four different commerical aircraft and took over piloting of the aircraft. How they did this is not known at all. This is one of the most unexplored areas of 9/11 research, and also one of the most important.

The hijackers mission was all the more incredible in that none of the pilots of the four planes reported hijackings to air traffic control-- as far as we know. And frankly, if there were recordings of the pilots (or even one pilot) saying we have hijackers on-board, wouldn't the press and the 9/11 commission flog it endlessly as proof of the hijackings?

The closest thing we have to a pilot saying there is a hijacking (according to the Report from the 9/11 independent commission) is a transmission supposedly from the cockpit of flight 93 saying "mayday!" and then 35 seconds later someone yelling "get out of here! get out of here!" (This itself is a little odd, since you might think they would say "get out of here!" before "mayday!").

Something we don't hear about much is that pilots have a special emergency transmitter that can be turned on in case of a hijacking. However, not one pilot on the hijacked planes turned this transmitter on. Why didn't even the flight 93 pilots turn this on, since apparently they knew enough to say "mayday" and apparently were in a struggle?

In fact, it is EXTREMELY suspicious that none of the four planes officially reported hijackings to air traffic control (ATC). In particular, on flight 93-- where supposedly there was a struggle before the hijackers took control-- why didn't the pilot turn on the emergency transmitter?

Thus we are supposed to believe the hijackers on all four planes were able to force themselves into the cockpit and take over both pilots' seats without the pilots alerting ATC or turning on the emergency transmitter. The only way the official story could be true is if the cockpit door was not locked at all, and the hijackers were able to suddenly rush in and kill or subdue the pilots within seconds-- four out of four times! This feat, which strikes me and others as almost impossible, makes it very unlikely that the hijackings took place according to the official story.

So what did happen?

The only plausible alternative, barring some extremely strange scenario, is that the planes were taken over by remote control and electronic transmissions from the planes were jammed. Thus, in this scenario, the pilots were powerless to control the plane and they could not alert ATC. This theory might also explain how the transponders went off. This scenario would then account for several oddities about the hijackers, including their lack of flying abilities. The major problem with this theory is the apparent existence of phone calls from the flight attendants and the passengers. But, as I have already gone over in an earlier post, many of these calls are implausible anyway, and so they may well have been faked.

I will grant that the simplest hypothesis is the official story with fanatical hijackers taking control over the planes and flying them into infamy. The major problem with this idea is the fact that the pilots DID NOT ALERT ATC OF HIJACKINGS. Since this seems so unlikely, we must come up with another hypothesis.
