where was the shanksville plane headed
SHANKSVILLE (KDKA) â This date 13 years ago is one Americans will never forget, when terrorists took aim at America. Hijacked planes hit the twin towers in New York City and the Pentagon. Another plane headed for Washington, D.C. was brought down here in southwestern Pennsylvania. A special memorial was held for the 13th anniversary of Sept. 11 at the Flight 93 Memorial in Shanksville. It was 9:28 a.m. Sept. 11, 2001, when 46 minutes after a routine flight from Newark, New Jersey, to San Francisco, California, terrorists overtook the cockpit of Flight 93. The field in Shanksville was never the intended target.
