Not one AC was intercepted therefore none were successful.

There is an upper limit on the speed of an F-15 or F-16.
Otis ANGB - NYC or Langley AFB - Washington DC is a fixed distance.

You do the math.

Pete

Actually provide it for everyone. Supply the specifics and incorporate it
into your statement. I am very interested in what you will put forth.

Naaa...you go ahead. You're the one making the claim that they should have
been successful.

The timelines for that morning are detailed and numerous. Feel free to use
any of the more reputable versions, along with USAF basing and force levels
on that morning, and pray tell us what 'armed AC' were available and able to
intercept, but did not.

Pete
please note the word 'reputable'


Yes, and don't forget to factor in all the different time
zones...hell, you might even be able to prove that the
interceptors should have been orbiting over NYC waiting for the
airliners to arrive...
