When MISURACA came to work on the morning of.September 11, he drove around to check security and make sure that the crews were working. He did not recall any problems. . The aircraft for AA flight 11 came in to Lpgan Airport on September 11,2001, at approximately 6:06Xm., as flight 198 from San Francisco. This was a "turn-around flight," meaning the aircraft was to be serviced and set off later 6n another flight. Flight 11 was a non-stop to Los Angeles, departing approximately 9-11-01

7:45 a.m. out of gate 32 with approximately eighty three people on board. A different flight crew, from Boston, would fly the plane to Los Angeles. JOHN ORANOWSKI was the pilot. DONNIE BENNETT was the crew chief for preparing flight 11, and his crew was: ANTHONY DURANTE, a line employee, working as a flight

service clerk, MANUAL SUVA, and RICK SORBELLO. BENNETTs crew's job is to load baggage. BENNETTs crew worked flight 198 as the first thing that shift, unloading that flight's baggage, and loading the baggage for flight 11. The next plane the crew worked after flight 11 was flight 156 for London. A seperate cabin service crew works on the passenger compartment, and checks for trash, objects, and people remaining on the plane. The makeup of a cabin service crew is kept to the same four or five guys, but crews might rotate so that one might not find the same crew servicing the same flight every day. Crews usually do not have much mixing or transfer of people. People bid by senority for which crew they want, usually to work for a favored supervisor. On September 11 there were no new faces, and no employees were missing. Catering does a seperate sweep to clean and prepare the plane. The catering service is SKY CHEF. SKY CHEF's morning shift is their premium or senior shift. Everyone on this shift has a year or more in service. They take out the old foodstuffs, and replace it. Baggage is handled by the baggage room, which for aircraft of flight 11's design, loads baggage onto hardbody LD8 containers. The containers are then placed on the plane. Last minute passenger's bags or oversize bags are put in the plane's baggage compartment last, without being put into an LD8 .,pontaine,r-->,l^aiLLs
9-11-01

luggage is treated differently. Flight 11 was cleaned and loaded without incident. There were no strangers, or absences of employees. Flight 11 was locked up and ready to go at 7:40 a.m. Prior to that, at 7:30 a.m., the baggage crew received a call from passenger service. Passenger service advised that a passenger was on board the plane, and that they were calling to make certain that his two bags had made it over. BENNETT said that he had the two bags, but tt!at),he.pJiixt y/as,JQpked up and the bags would not be put on. The bags were given to AA bag expiditer PHILIP A. DEPASQUALE, aka ZIP. Note that passenger service usually does not call about a bag, unless the passenger has asked to ensure that his bags are put on the flight. Later, MISURACA and others heard of the crash and called regarding the two bags. DEPASQUALE had put them on flight 181 for Los Angeles. The bags were retrieved. Flight 11 was a 767 aircraft. These have access from

September 5,2003 3:53 pm

Page 2

the passenger compartment to the baggage compartment via a trap door near the cockpit. The door is under the rug. MISURACA has never observed a crew member pass luggage to a passenger, and there is absolutely no access between the passengers and their checked baggage. It would be difficult for a stowaway to make it on board flight 11. Particularly because it was a "turn-around" flight, going directly on another trip after landing in Boston. A stowaway on this flight would really need assistance from a plane service crew member. It would be easier, but still difficult to stowaway on a plane that sits overnight. MISURACA notes that he is more familiar with the baggage elements of plane servicing, than with the passenger compartment details. MISURACA is also a ground security coordinator. As such, he has tested the security and found frequent failings. Security is not doing a good enough job. [PDF page 3]

GORE recalled on the morning of September 11, 2001, a Chinese man caused a scene because security would not allow him to pass through with a laser pointer. She stated she called for a Ground Security Coordinator GSC. The man was allowed to pass after removing the batteries.

DIANE GRANEY. date of birth \d as a Customer Service Agent CSA and Ground Security Coordinator GSC, U.S. AIRWAYS USAIR, Portland International Jetport, 1001 Westbrook Street, Portland, Maine, telephone number 207775-5210, was interviewed at her place of employment. After being advised of the identity of the interviewing agent and the nature of the interview, she provided the following information: GRANEY has been employed with USAIR for approximately twelve years. As a CSA for USAIR, GRANEVs duties include conducting passenger check-ins, checking baggage, making seat assignments, and issuing tickets. She performs her duties at either the USAIR Ticket Counter or at the individual airport gates. As a GSC, she deals with aircraft, airport, and general security issues. On September 11, 2001, from 5:00 AM to 1:00 PM, GRANEY was working at the USAIR Ticket Counter. At some point in her shift she heard of the attacks on the World Trade Center in New York, and that one of the flights was American Airlines Flight 11 out of Logan Airport in Boston. As a GSC, she went and pulled the passenger lists for the USAIR flights to Logan to see if any USAIR passengers had a connection on that flight. GRANEY saw that there were two passengers on USAIR Flight 5930 to Logan that had a connection to American Airlines Flight 11. The two names were MOHAMED ATTA and ABDULAZIZ ALOMARI. She also noticed the two were scheduled to sit in First Class on American Airlines Flight 11. GRANEY thought it was suspicious that these two passengers could have taken a better, more direct flight then what they had scheduled. GRANEY observed that ATTA and ALOMARI had checked two bags in at the USAIR Ticket Counter, and that MICHAEL TUOHEY was the CSA who checked them in. She spoke to TUOHEY about the two passengers, and he advised her of what he had observed. She then contacted CHUCK SEVERANCE, USAIR Station Manager, and informed him of what had happened and what she had discovered.

GRANEY advised that later when she saw ATTA's picture on the news, she believed she had seen him before. She thought he may have tried to jump seat once with USAIR, and he was in uniform using an American Airlines pilot identification. She believed that this happened within the last six months. She advised she searched the USAIR jump seat paperwork to see who had gone through for June 2001, July 2001, and August 2001, but was unable to find ATTA's name. She advised the jump seat forms are only kept for 90 days. She became more concerned about this when she heard on the news that some American Airlines uniforms were stolen in Italy. GRANEY was then requested to review a photograph array containing twelve pictures of twelve of the alleged hijackers. GRANEY identified the picture of MOHAMED ATTA as the person she remembered seeing prior to September 11, 2001 attempting to jump seat a USAIR flight. She also identified the picture of MARWAN ALSHEHHI as someone she had seen sometime at the airport ticket counter. She identified the picture of WALEED ALSHERI as someone who looks familiar. Both GRANEY and the interviewing agent dated and initialed the pictures she identified. [PDF page 2]

imperative that he had to be in Los Angeles by Sunday 09/23/2001 at 10:00 p.m. VOGEL thought it was also unusual that NARAYANAN asked for Flight 886 specifically. She said that it was unusual because if he was so familiar with that particular flight then he should have flown Southwest Airlines before and realized that they had open seating at boarding and that he could not be assigned a front row seat; further, Flight 886 always arrives in Los Angeles at 10:50 p.m., and he had made it clear that it was imperative that he arrive in Los Angeles before 10:00 p.m. When she indicated the late arrival tima to him, NARAYANAN indicated that was okay, and that he had to be on Flight 886. Immediately after NARAYANAN'S contact with VOGEL at the Southwest Airlines counter, she observed him go over to the United Airlines counter two times and make some sort of contact with United Airlines staff there. At about 3:30 to 4:00 p.m. on that same date (Saturday, 09/22/2001), VOGEL went to go to lunch at the Portland Airport food court at the Macheezmo Mouse on her break and she observed VINOD NARAYANAN and the white male adult who was with him seated. The white male adult was on a cell phone. NARAYANAN was writing in his notebook and he took VOGEL's name, and asked her about how many restrooms there were on the flight and if they were on front of the aircraft or on the back of the aircraft. She advised he also wanted to know how full the flight was and if it was going to depart on time. NARAYANAN also told VOGEL at that time that he had booked a flight on United Airlines; however, VOGEL went back to the Southwest Airlines counter, checked the booking reservations, and discovered that NARAYANAN had made a reservation at 2:14 p.m. with Southwest Airlines. Additipnally, on Sunday, 09/23/2001, about two hours before the 7:25 p.m. departure of Flight 886, NARAYANAN had canceled his reservation and transferred it to Monday, 09/24/2001. At the time of the interview on 09/24/2001, NARAYANAN had never actually purchased a ticket and had no-showed for that reservation. Besides the name VINOD NARAYANAN, the only additional information included in the reservation information was that the individual had provided his home telephone number as I I VOGEL described NARAYANAN as a very dark complected Middle-Eastern male; in his late 40s; approximately 57" to 5'8"; 140 to 150 pounds; clean-shaven; no glasses; dressed nice in a

Specifically, he advised that his bulk carrier, the "Gem of Tuticorin" finally got cleared to leave Portland and go to Anchorage, Alaska, from which it will be departing back to India.

He did not recall haying inquired with Southwest Airlines staffs about his mobility while on the flight and did not recall a contact with any of the staff over at the food court.

Jwas interviewed at his place of employment; American Airlines, 9257 Airport BoulevardT Orlando: Florida, 32827, telephone number / /After being advised of the identity of the interviewing agent and the nature of the interview, Frontiero provided the following information: Frontiero has worked for American Airlines for 14 years. He is currently employed as an acting Customer Service Manager GSM and Ground Security Coordinator GSC. His duties include coordination of ground searches, security checkpoints and security monitoring. He has had security training in the form of a two-day course in Dallas, Texas, which covered many airport security issues, including security searches of airplanes. On September 11, 2001, Frontiero searched three American Airlines airplanes grounded at the Orlando International Airport. Naheed "Robbie" Toulani and Reynaldo Galindez assisted in this search. Together, they searched a 767, a 757 and a Super 80, which was searched last. The Super 80 was parked at Gate 14. They were looking for anything out of the ordinary, or anything that looked like it did not belong on the airplane. They did not meet before any of the searches to discuss what particular items to look for.

LYNN ANN BODE, Customer Service Trainer and Ground Security Coordinator. United Airlines UAL, Newark International Airport NIA, Newark, NJ, was interviewed at her place of employment and provided the following information: BODE has been employed by United Airlines for 23 years. She was in the UAL Training Room in Terminal A at NIA during the morning of 09/11/2001. As a result, she had no contact with, nor any chance to observe, the passengers or crew of UAL Flight 93. After the UAL employees in the terminal heard about the crash, BODE spoke with several of the customer service personnel who processed the flight. One gate agent, MARVIN WESTNEY, told BODE he remembered four Arabic males who "stood out" from the other passengers because of their Arabic-sounding names and because one of the men asked WESTNEY if the flight would be leaving on time. WESTNEY told BODE the men were traveling in First Class; two were seated together and the other two were seated individually. BODE advised there might be information about the four males in the "selectee cards" for the flight. BODE explained that some passengers are selected on every flight for enhanced security scrutiny. This selection can be automatic, based on criteria set out by the Federal Aviation Administration FAA. In addition, customer service agents can designate passengers for selection under certain circumstances, such as not having an identification at check-in, mismatch between names on a passenger identification and the passenger ticket, etc. BODE advised that her supervisor, ANTHONY REID, had taken the cards after the crash. The following identifying data is provided for BODE: Name: LYNN ANN BODE Sex: Female Birthdate: I SSAN:| Home i
