FAA Alerted About Hijacker in 2001 Quote:
Long before the terrorism of Sept. 11, an Arizona flight school warned federal aviation officials that Hani Hanjour lacked the flying skills and command of English required for the commercial pilot's license he already held, officials say.
Reacting to the alert in January 2001, a Federal Aviation Administration inspector checked to ensure Hanjour's 1999 license was legitimate and even sat next him in one of the Arizona classes.
Hanjour is believed to have piloted the plane that crashed into the Pentagon on Sept. 11.
