Airport security repercussions due to the September 11, 2001 attacks - Airport security repercussions due to the September 11, 2001 attacks Box-cutter knives were apparently used in the September 11, 2001 attacks, though such knives are not usually considered weapons. The hijackers could have very easily gotten these type of knives past airport security since up until the attacks, they fit the qualifications to be permitted on U.S domestic flights: any knife with a blade up to 4 inches long was permitted. FAA rules placed into effect on September 13, 2001 prohibit any type of knife in secured airport areas and planes. Airport security for the two flights out of Newark and Washington Dulles had been provided by Argenbright Holdings Ltd, a company which had plead guilty to federal fraud charges in May 2000 because they had hired 1,300 untrained security.

Todd Beamer - Beamer Todd Morgan Beamer (1969-September 11, 2001), of Cranbury, New Jersey, was an account manager for the Oracle Corporation. He died at age 32 in the September 11, 2001 Terrorist Attack on board United Airlines flight 93. He is survived by his wife, Lisa Beamer, two sons, David and Drew, and a daughter, Morgan Kay, who was born on January 9, 2002-- nearly four months after her father's death. Todd and other passengers had been in communication with people via cell phones and learned that the World Trade Center had been destroyed using hijacked airplanes. Todd was among the passengers that evidently decided to fight the hijackers hand-to-hand. Todd's last words among the living were "Let's roll", which became a catchphrase symbolizing American patriotism; notably, Neil Young wrote a tribute song.
Korean Air Flight 7 - the flight number of a civilian airliner shot down by Soviet fighters on September 1, 1983, after flying over Sakhalin Island. The USSR called the flyover a violation of its airspace and declared that such a violation justified shooting down the plane and killing its 269 passengers and crew. The policy of the United States (prior to September 11, 2001 Terrorist Attacks) and most other countries is not to shoot down errant civilian airliners, even if they fly directly over a military base. Accordingly, the shoot-down attracted a storm of protest in the United States and from many people in Europe. Table of contents showTocToggle("show","hide") 1 Chronology 2 Theories 3 See Also 4.
