I did see the film Saturday evening. The film does a very commendable
job showing the inner workings of ATC. Nothing "made up" their. The film
also illustrates quite graphical just how unprepared out military was
(and perhaps still is) for an attack right on our front door. I felt
that the producers were very sympathetic to the survivors of the
victims; little time was given over to establishing the ususal sort of
Hollywoodian romances and relationships. I was quite emotional drained
after seeing the film; it is, after all, showing the sequence of events
that led up to many deaths and the closure of American airspace. It also
portrays quite accurately just how effective the ATC and the FAA were at
bringing all aircraft to the ground in a very short period of time.
