At Around 8:45 a.m Making an appearance over the George Washington Bridge Witnesses along the west side of the Manhattan could Recall Hearing the loud Piercing sound of a Whining jet making its way Southbound at a High Rate of Speed and Much too Low.

In its Final seconds American Airlines Flight 11 Flashed past the Empire State Building and hurtled its way downtown Carrying Roughly more than 9 Thousand Gallons of Jet Fuel and Carrying 92 Souls Aboard it Slams into the North Tower of the World Trade Center Between the 94th and 98th Floors Instantaneously causing unbearable Damage as the North Tower Bursts Into Flames and Debris was spewed All over Downtown Manhattan.
