ONG said that the First Class passengers were moved to Coach, and that the Business Class cabin was sprayed with possibly mace. ONG said that it was difficult to breathe, and it was difficult to see what was going on in the Business and First Class. ONG told GONZALEZ that she was informed by other FA's that a passenger by the name of DANIEL LEWIN may have been fatally wounded. GONZALEZ said that LEWIN may have been on sit 96, but that information is not confirmed. ONG kept GONZALEZ appraised of the flying condition of the airplane, and that from time to time the airplane was taking rapid descents and flying sideways, erratically. Throughout the call, GONZALEZ did not hear much commotion on the background. There were moments in the conversations where ONG asked for their prayers. GONZALEZ tried to keep the line open and kept ONG talking. At one point, ONG started to cry and said "Oh God Oh God, what is going on!" and the call ended.

Hoa normally works in the "silverware" department, but on 09/10/2001 and 09/11/2001, she packaged box meals for American Airlines flights 975, 77,1309, 1319, and 573. The usual box packers, two 2 females named 'Van" and "Rumi", were on vacation. Hoa only works on American Airlines meal preparation. Hoa receives a menu and fljght number from her supervisor and packs the meals accordingly. Hoa is the only one who packed the box meals for the previously mentioned flights, but someone else provided her with the supplies needed to pack the boxes. The boxes included an apple, cheese, and a brownie or cookie and were placed in a red meal box. The box did not contain utensils. Hoa took the boxes, and placed them in a cart or cooler for delivery to the airplanes. Hoa doesn't leave the Gate Gourmet facility during her working hours and she does not make deliveries to the airplanes. Hoa's regular hours are from 2:30 P.M. until IJhOO P.M.; Hoa worked these same hours on 09/10/2001 and 09/11/2001. Hoa did not recall seeing anything unusual or suspicious during her shifts on 09/10/2001 and 09/11/2001. She really only knows people in her area. Many foreigners work in the dish washing area at Gate Gourmet and wear vales. Because of the language barrier, Hoa doesn't talk to them. Hoa was asked if someone could easily slip a knife into one of the meal boxes that she prepared. Hoa stated that the boxes are small but they are not sealed. Hoa uses a check list to make sure that she makes the correct number and type of meals for the flights. Someone else checks Hoa's work to make sure that the correct number and type of boxes have been made, but, Hoa doesn't think that this person actually opens the box to check what is inside. Hoa has not heard any rumors at work about the terrorist attacks. Hoa does not have any other relatives living with her beside her son and daughter. Hoa does not have any association with any known terrorist or terrorist organizations. Hoa has not heard of any one at work making derogatory remarks about the United States of America.

AYLWARD is aware that knives longer than 4" are not allowed to be carried aboard aircraft. Conversely, knives with a blade length shorter that 4" are allowed to be carried on aircraft. If a knife longer than 4" is detected at the security check point the passenger is instructed to return to the ticket counter and have the knife checked with the rest of their baggage which will go in the belly of the aircraft. Passengers also have the option of leaving the unauthorized knife at the security check point where it will be thrown away. AYLWARD said the CSS is the person who determines the blade length of a knife and whether the passenger is allowed to board the aircraft with the knife. He said the PBS is just the screener. AYLWARD is aware of box cutter knives. He worked at STOP AND SHOP Supermarkets for 17 years and knows what a box cutter knife is capable of. AYLWARD was not aware of his company's policy on box cutter knives but indicated if the box cutter knife was 4" or shorter it would be allowed on board the aircraft. Box cutter knives are not good for stabbing persons but rather for slashing them. [PDF page 2]

Personal . Privacy

On September H, 2001, at approximately 7:25 a.m. Central Standard Time, MARQUIS received a telephone call from the number 3 flight attendant on board Flight 11. identified by the crew manifest as B.A. ONG ONG, AA employee number 131804. This telephone call was initially received by NIDIA GONZALES, 919460-4187, an AA supervisor at the Raleigh Reservations Center in North Carolina. The call was transferred to central dispatch in Fort Worth, Texas, because there was a disturbance on board and the flight crew was not able to contact the cockpit. ONG wanted central dispatch to contact the cockpit. MARQUIS first confirmed that ONG was an AA flight attendant. During this telephone call, ONG reported that there was a passenger on board who was armed with a knife. This passenger was seated in 10B and was identified as TOM ELSUQANI phonetic. When MARQUIS first hsard this, he thought that the knife might have been a Swiss army knife of some sort because it was not that uncommon for passengers to have these. ONG then informed MARQUIS that the passenger in seat 9B, DAVID LEWIN, had been fatally stabbed and that the number 1 flight attendant, K.A. MARTIN MARTIN, AA employee number 307280, had been stabbed as well. MARTIN was in bad shape and was currently on oxygen. Besides these two individuals, the number 5 flight attendant, B. ARESTEGUI, AA employee number 167762, had been superficially wounded by the passenger with the knife. In addition to these injuries, there were two men trying to gain access to the cockpit, and by this time, all passengers had been removed from first class. After the men gained access to the cockpit, ONG could hear loud arguing from the cockpit area. ONG

also mentioned that there was something in the air that made it hard to breath. This telephone conversation lasted from approximately 7:25 a.m. until approximately 7:49 a.m. There was no doctor on board Flight 11 to help the injured; as a result, MARQUIS wanted the aircraft to land at the next available airport. Because of the medical emergencies and the violence, MARQUIS intended for medical personnel and law enforcement to meet the aircraft as soon as it landed. MARQUIS had the flight tagged as a confirmed hijacking and contacted air traffic control ATC regarding the situation. MARQUIS informed the dispatcher, PEGGY HOUCK, of what was happening with Flight 11. and instructed her to contact the crew immediately and to perform a range analysis given the amount of fuel on the aircraft. ATC reportedly heard arguing over the microphone, hearing a statement to the effect of "either turn back or we'll kill you." The pilot apparently keyed the microphone at some point during these events thereby allowing ATC to hear part of what was happening, It was thought that these transmissions were recorded by ATC, in this case Boston ATC. During the time in which the telephone conversation occurred, the aircraft flew erratically and was descending in altitude. The transponder was turned off, but ATC was handling this flight as a confirmed hijacking and was attempting to track it. Soon after ONG hung up the telephone, MARQUIS received a call from ED DOOLEY DOOLEY, an AA Ramp Manager at John F. Kennedy International Airport in New York, New York. DOOLEY reported smoke coming from the World Trade Center and asked what was happening. Based upon his conversation with DOOLEY, MARQUIS figured the impact of Flight 11 was close to 7:49 a.m., corresponding to the end of the telephone call from ONG. DOOLEY called again at approximately 8:10 a.m. and stated that the NEW YORK PORT AUTHORITY confirmed that both towers of the World Trade Center were on fire and that an AA aircraft was involved. Although unsure, MARQUIS thought that his telephone conversation with ONG was recorded. He would ascertain whether the conversation was recorded and would notify the FEDERAL BUREAU OF INVESTIGATION regarding this. The number 9 flight attendant, M. SWEENEY, AA employee number 129043, telephoned the AA Flight Services Department in Boston, Massachusetts. Regarding the hijacking of Flight 77. the aircraft had crashed before AA really knew that anything was happening on board. [PDF page 2] FD-302a(Rev. 10-6-95)

When DIFIORE went to place the suitcase on the security conveyor belt, the black bag flopped over. DIFIORE grabbed the black bag and went to set it so it would go through the computer flat, and that is when he felt in the bottom of the computer bag a bunch of lose items that may have been a disposable plastic knife with blades that break off or what felt like square carpenter pencils. At this point, POPULO came over, grabbed the computer suitcase and placed it next to the flight attendant's bag straight up so it did not go through the computer flat. DIFIORE stated that he had a problem getting through the security checkpoint because of tinfoil on a stick of gum he had in his pocket. Once he got through the security checkpoint, POPULO had grabbed her bag off the conveyor belt and was moving quickly toward the gate. DIFIORE stated that POPULO had tipped him $50 for helping her.

These knives are not very sharp. The silverware is usually already prepared by the prior shift. First Class passenger receive their silverware wrapped in a napkin. One day a week there is a change of operations when information is received that a flight is cancelled and the food has to be moved or someone calls to say there are not enough meals for the number of passengers on that flight. BROUSSARD does not deliver the food to the airplane, only prepares it for transport to the airplane.

BROUSSARD stated that she did not enter American Airlines Flight 77. If a flight is delayed, BROUSSARD may be requested to check the temperature of the food, but she never knows what food .prepared by her staff goes to which airplane.

The food packer for Flight 77 for First Class breakfast and lunch was JATINDER KAUR BAINS and lunch for the rest of the passengers was prepared by THANG NGUYEN. NGUYEN has only been employed with Gategourmet for about one month. The swing shift breakfast preparation was done by VAN LNU, a female. VAN LNU was filling in for RUMINA LNU who was currently on vacation with her children who were visiting from Romania. None of these employee go on the airplane. For Flight 77, the Quality Assurance QA personnel were PERVIS RAMOS on the midnight shift, and TAMMY LNU and TAMOLE LNU on the day shift running from 4:00am or 5:00am to 1:00pm. There would be one QA during the afternoon. Final packing for Flight 77 was probably finished by 1:00am on [PDF page 2] FD-302a (Rev. 10-6-95)

MILLER reported that on 9/11/01, knives 4" or longer were not allowed to be carried aboard an aircraft. Knives shorter than 4" were allowed on aircraft. MILLER thought this was an FAA rule but he was not positive. MILLER reported he checks the length of a knife with his MASSPORT identification badge. If the knife is longer than the MASSPORT badge, the passenger is instructed to check the knife with their luggage which will be placed in the belly of the airplane. Or, the passenger can leave the knife at the security check point station. MILLER advised if the passenger elects to have the knife checked with their luggage, he would escort the passenger to the ticket counter line where the knife would be checked. MILLER said that prior to 9/11/01, knives were a problem on flights. He estimates 15-20 knives a day would be removed from traveling passengers as they passed through the security check point. MILLER advised about 3-4 months ago GLOBE AVIATION employees were told that people at the airport have a right to take pictures of the security check point. MILLER disagrees with this decision but since the decision was enacted he has seen individuals taking pictures of the security check point. He couldn't recall an exact instance or occasion when someone took a picture, just generally that it had happened. He said he does not recall the ethnic origin of any person who might have taken a picture of the security check point as he is "focused" on his job and ahead of the check point area. [PDF page 2]

They understood me, but would not answer me. One of them standing back to the photo booth became upset, he seemed anxious to get out the door. Another man behind me uttered —Ben, then the other men sharply spoke to him before he could finish what he was saying. - The man who was standing back to the photo booth looked at me with a threatening stare that indicated to me that if I tried to stop him, he would kill me.

DESIMONE was employed by GLOBE AVIATION SERVICES at Boston/Logan International Airport, Terminals B&E from 8/5/00 to just before Thanksgiving, 2000. DESIMONE was a PBS, Pre-Board Screener. She originally worked the 5:00 a.m. to 1:00 p.m. shift. She later changed to a 8:30 a.m. to 3:30 p.m. shift. DESIMONE recalled her CSS at terminal E was "ISAAC LNU" and JAMES MILLER was her Supervisor at Terminal B. DESIMONE resigned from GLOBE AVIATION because of poor pay, atmosphere within the company and length of drive to work. She recalled there were occasions when her paycheck was late. She also thought GLOBE AVIATION, as a whole, was a rude company. As a Pre-Board Screener, DESIMONE operated the x-ray machine, magnetometer, hand wand and worked security at the security check point at Terminals B&E. Terminal B is where AMERICAN AIRLINE flights arrive and depart from and Terminal E is where NORTHWEST and ATA Airlines depart and arrive from. Terminal E is also where International flights arrive and depart. In addition to her PBS duties at Terminal E, DESIMONE x-rayed passengers luggage and, on occasions, cleaned the airplanes for NORTHWEST and ATA Airlines. She recalled she also monitored International Flights which had landed in Boston while transiting to another country. DESIMONE advised she was responsible for guarding the passengers who were escorted off the plane to a holding area while the plane was being refueled, serviced or adding on passengers. She reported passengers who were U.S. citizens were allowed to leave the holding area but had to pass through Customs before leaving Terminal E. Non-resident passengers had to remain in the holding area. DESIMONE recalled she preformed the above function for KOREAN AIRLINES. DESIMONE reported knives with serrated edges were not allowed on aircraft. Generally, if a knife was found, or a large
