http://arabesque911.blogspot.com/2007/07/pentagon-flight-path-map-perfect.html“The plane is a modified Boeing 747-200. Notice the white color, the US flag painted on the vertical stabilizer (i.e, the tail), and the blue stripe and insignia on the fuselage. The clincher, however, is the "bump" directly behind the bulging 747 cockpit. It is clearly discernible in both photos. No other plane has this piggy-backed appendage. It is unique to the E-4B, and is integral to the plane's military role as an airborne command center.”[57]
He further observes of the plane, “Several close-ups of an E-4B clearly show that this blue spot is simply the place where the blue stripes painted on the fuselage come together at the rear of the aircraft.”[58]
There appears to be enough evidence to suggest that this E-4B was a separate plane from the one approaching the Pentagon. The eyewitness statements at the Pentagon crash for example, claimed it had two—not four engines, was silver (backed up by silver pieces of debris at the crash site)[59] and the radar data appears to indicate that there were two separate planes.
Noteworthy is that the transponder of the E-4B by the White House was turned off—just like the one alleged to have approached the Pentagon. According to Mark Gafney this could be explained by the fact that the E-4B has a military transponder that is unreadable to the FAA.[60]
The War Games
What was this plane doing by the White House near the time of the Pentagon attack? Gaffney provides a compelling possibility:
"According to one report, on September 11, 2001 three of the E-4Bs were participating in a live command-level exercise known as Global Guardian. The exercise is an annual event, and is staged to test the readiness of the US military's command and control procedures involved in waging thermonuclear war. The 2001 exercise started the week before September 11 under the directorship of Admiral Richard Mies, commander-in-chief of STRATCOM. According to various reports, the drill was in "full swing" at the time of the 9/11 attack."[61]
According to the report mentioned, “These E-4B National Airborne Operations Center planes—nicknamed “Doomsday” planes during the Cold War—are intended to control nuclear forces from the air in times of crisis. They are capable of acting as alternative command posts for top government officials from where they can direct US forces, execute war orders and coordinate the actions of civil authorities in times of national emergency.”[62]
It is likely that this plane flying near the White House was involved in Global Guardian, one of the many 9/11 war game exercises widely documented to have taken place on 9/11. This was not a new exercise. In the 1980’s, the E-4B’s were used in similar drills in “top-secret exercises… testing a program called continuity of government (COG) that would keep the federal government functioning during and after a nuclear war.”[63] Noteworthy is that “Dick Cheney and Donald Rumsfeld participate in the COG exercises,”[64] and they were “regular participants in top-secret exercises, designed to test a program called continuity of government (COG).”[65]
Other similar exercises related to the events of 9/11 included:
“Counterterrorism “tsar” Richard Clarke chairs a tabletop exercise at the White House, involving a scenario where anti-American militants fill a Learjet with explosives, and then fly it on a suicide mission toward a target in Washington, DC.”[66]
“In the two years before the Sept. 11 attacks, the North American Aerospace Defense Command conduct[s ] exercises simulating what the White House [later] says was unimaginable at the time: Hijacked airliners used as weapons to crash into targets and cause mass casualties.” One of these imagined targets is the World Trade Center.”[67]
“A plane crash is simulated inside the cardboard courtyard of a model Pentagon. Pentagon and Arlington County emergency responders assemble in the office of the Secretary of Defense’s conference room in the Pentagon for a mass casualty exercise (“MASCAL”). The exercise involves three mock-scenarios. One is of a commercial airliner crashing into the Pentagon and killing 342 people.”[68]
“…one of the scenarios that was considered for this exercise involved “a terrorist group hijack[ing] a commercial airliner and fly[ing] it into the Pentagon.” But the proposed scenario, thought up by a group of Special Operations personnel trained to think like terrorists, was rejected.”[69]
“Real events similar to the Unified Vision scenario unfolded in the attacks of Sept. 11. Ozolek will later remark, “Nostradamus couldn’t have nailed the first battle of the next war any closer than we did.… [T]his time we got it right.” He will say, however, that UV 01 did not foresee the severity of terrorist attacks that occurred on 9/11, and involved terrorists attacking US military targets, rather than civilian ones.”[70]
“The next Amalgam Virgo exercise… will involve two simultaneous commercial aircraft hijackings. Planning for the exercises begins before 9/11.”[71]
“NORAD is… planning for the Amalgam Virgo 02 exercise. This exercise, scheduled for June 2002, will involve the simulation of two simultaneous commercial aircraft hijackings. One plane, a Delta 757, flown by Delta pilots, will fly from Salt Lake City, Utah to Elmendorf Air Force Base in Anchorage, Alaska. It will be “hijacked” by FBI agents posing as terrorists. The other plane will be a Navy C-9 bound from Oak Harbor, Washington to Vancouver, British Columbia, and will be “hijacked” by Royal Canadian Mounted Police.”[72]
“A mass casualty exercise, involving a practice evacuation, is held at the Pentagon. General Lance Lord of US Air Force Space Command, one of the participants in the exercises, later recalls: ‘[It was] purely a coincidence, the scenario for that exercise included a plane hitting the building.’”[73]
“A tabletop exercise is held at the Department of Transportation (DOT) in Washington, DC, as part of its preparations for the 2002 Winter Olympics in Salt Lake City… ‘During that exercise, part of the scenario, interestingly enough, involved a potentially hijacked plane and someone calling on a cell phone, among other aspects of the scenario that were very strange when twelve days later, as you know, we had the actual event [of 9/11].’”[74]
There were previous drills in which a plane was simulated to fly into a “famous” US building.[75]
“Agency Planned Exercise on September 11 built around a plane crashing into a building,”[76]
Officials claimed a “failure of imagination” to even consider these types of attacks, but these drills clearly contradict that idea.[77] Furthermore, Exercises that simulated terrorist attacks such as these[78] have been speculated to be used as a cover for these attacks to take place.[79] Simply put, a plan is made to “simulate” an attack, and then the “simulated” attack suddenly becomes real. As Webster Tarpley notes in 9/11 Synthetic Terror: Made in USA: “the most palpably subversive actions could be made to appear in the harmless and even beneficial guise of a drill.”[80] Tarpley also argues that drills taking place during the London 7/7 bombing conspicuously became real-life; implying that they were actually state-sponsored attacks.[81]
On 9/11, this phenomenon of “drills” turning into real-life appears to have occurred.
“The first thing that went through my mind [after receiving the hijacking alert for Flight 11 on 9/11] was, is this part of the exercise? Is this some kind of a screw-up?”[82] General Arnold of NORAD
“Tech. Sgt. Jeremy W. Powell of … Northeast Air Defense Sector (NEADS) in Rome, N.Y., took the first call from Boston Center. He notified NEADS Commander Col. Robert K. Marr Jr. of a possible hijacked airliner, American Airlines Flight 11. “‘Part of the exercise?’ the Colonel wondered. No, this is a real world event, he was told.”[83]
“At 8:40, Deskins noticed senior technician Jeremy Powell waving his hand. Boston Center was on the line, he said. It had a hijacked airliner. ‘It must be part of the exercise,’ Deskins thought. At first, everyone did.”[84]
As noted by Michael Kane, “War games & terror drills included live-fly exercises with military aircraft posing as hijacked aircraft over the United States, as well as simulated exercises that placed "false blips" (radar injects indicating virtual planes) on FAA radar screens. One exercise titled NORTHERN VIGILANCE pulled Air Force fighters up into Canada simulating a Russian air attack, so there were very few fighters remaining on the east coast to respond. All of this paralyzed Air Force response ensuring that fighter jocks couldn't stop 9/11.”[85]
Who had the authority to organize all of the war games on 9/11? Dick Cheney.[86]
There were also simulated hijack drills with "live fly" aircraft taking place on 9/11. Some reports suggested as many as 21 possibly "hijacked" planes during the attacks.[87] This E-4B spotted by the White House could have been interpreted as one of those “hijacked” aircraft.
There were as many as 15 military war games and exercises taking place on 9/11.[88]
Amalgam Virgo Air defense against rogue state/terror cruise missiles, hijackings
Vigilant Guardian Air defense against hijacking: “Part of this exercise is pure simulation, but part is real world… “[89] It involved “fake blips” or “injects” added to radar screens.

TRIPOD II, Manhattan Response to biochemical attack
Timely Alert II Emergency response to bomb attack[90]
Why these exercises were significant:
Aircraft were diverted away from the Washington and New York on 9/11 in several exercises as far away as Alaska and Canada (Operation Northern Vigilance).
This left only a handful of aircraft to defend the skies affected during 9/11: “NORAD confirmed it had only eight fighters on the East Coast for emergency scrambles on September 11. Throughout Canada and the United States, including Alaska, NORAD had 20 fighters on alert — armed, fueled up, and ready to fly in minutes.”[91]
Live (“Live-Fly”), remote controlled aircraft are used in multiple hijacking exercises
Aircraft “false blips” are added to radar screens including FAA radar; this results in FAA confusion and possibly ‘phantom flight 11’: “We may have to do a lot more than that, Dick. I already put a hold on all take-offs and landings in New York and Washington, but we have reports of eleven aircraft off course or out of communications, maybe hijacked.”[92]
CIA runs a NRO exercise which involves:”…a bizarre coincidence… one US intelligence agency was planning an exercise last September 11 [2001] in which an errant aircraft would crash into one of its buildings.”[93]
Aircraft “false blips” were possibly not removed until after the pentagon was struck[94]
Firefighters near the pentagon participate in an “aircraft crash refresher course” [MASCAL] which is conveniently interrupted by a plane crash: “Soon after the Pentagon is hit, medical workers initiate their mass casualty plan (MASCAL) for dealing with disasters. Sergeant Matthew Rosenberg, a medic at the Pentagon’s DiLorenzo Tricare Health Clinic, arrives at the center courtyard. Seeing smoke rising from the side of the building and patients staggering out, he radios the clinic: ‘You need to initiate MASCAL right now! We have mass casualties! I need medical assets to the courtyard! … ‘The saving grace to our efforts was the two MASCAL exercises we previously had conducted... Our scenario for both MASCALS was a plane flying into the Pentagon courtyard.’”[95]
Tripod II Placed FEMA near the Trade Center Towers the day before 9/11.[96]
FEMA was then used to participate in the WTC cleanup effort.[97]
The Third Plane
As if two planes were not enough, there was also a third plane by the Pentagon at the time of the crash. Amazingly, none of these planes were fighters sent in defense of the Pentagon—supposedly one of the most secure buildings in the world. Despite an airbase less than one minute away from the Pentagon, no fighters reach the Pentagon until after the strike.
At 9:36 a.m., a military cargo plane was asked to identify the plane approaching the Pentagon:
“Reagan Airport flight control instructs a military C-130 (Golfer 06) that has just departed Andrews Air Force Base to intercept Flight 77 and identify it.”[98]
Why was only a cargo plane sent to intercept the plane approaching the Pentagon? The pilot, Lt. Col. Steve O’Brien describes what happened:
“When air traffic control asked me if we had him [Flight 77] in sight, I told him that was an understatement—by then, he had pretty much filled our windscreen. Then he made a pretty aggressive turn so he was moving right in front of us, a mile and a half, two miles away. I said we had him in sight, then the controller asked me what kind of plane it was. That caught us up, because normally they have all that information. The controller didn’t seem to know anything.” O’Brien reports that the plane is either a 757 or 767 and its silver fuselage means it is probably an American Airlines plane.”[99]
It is noteworthy that witnesses observed two distinct planes at the Pentagon, and many described the C-130 in some detail.[100] The Pilot continues his story:
“They told us to turn and follow that aircraft—in 20 plus years of flying, I’ve never been asked to do something like that.” The 9/11 Commission Reports that it is a C-130H and the pilot specifically identifies the hijacked plane as a 757. Seconds after impact, he reports, “Looks like that aircraft crashed into the Pentagon, sir.”[101]
For unknown and inexplicable reasons, fighter aircraft only arrive after the Pentagon attack: “the Langley fighters will arrive over Washington some time around 10 a.m. "[102]
Conclusions
While the Pentagon Strike remains a controversy there is enough credible and damning evidence to suggest insider complicity. There is strong evidence for a NORAD stand down, which allowed aircraft to hit their targets, and war games that helped to facilitate a successful stand-down by creating confusion and removing air defenses. Questions about the flight path however, while important, divert attention from more critical issues, such as the NORAD stand down, and why the Pentagon was ever attacked at all. However, Koeppel's map is wrong, and any implied conclusions that reference this map as legitimate evidence are also wrong.
Why a cargo plane would be sent to intercept alleged flight 77 instead of a military aircraft is one of the most damning mysteries about the Pentagon attack. Why would this plane be sent to intercept when it would have no chance to stop the plane from attacking the Pentagon or the White house—targets that anyone would reasonably assume would be worthwhile for the "terrorists". Speculation is not required to question why a C-130 asked to intercept an alleged incoming aircraft instead of a fighter plane. The E-4B plane by the White House is very suspicious. It is a fact that the plane was caught on tape, radar, and seen by witnesses, and yet is not mentioned in the 9/11 report, and could have been participating in Global Guardian—a military exercise. What was this plane doing by the Pentagon near restricted airspace at the time of the Pentagon Attack? The plane alleged to have hit the Pentagon was also captured on radar and seen by witnesses, but no videos have ever been released by the government to clearly show this plane. There is widespread doubt that Hanni Hanjour could have flown the plane into the Pentagon since even professional pilots have difficulty hitting buildings with pin-point accuracy. The fact that there were live-fly—remote controlled planes in “hijack” exercises strongly suggests that remote control could have been used to pilot the planes into buildings.
