Mohomed Atta, Hijacker
September 11, 2001

8:24 AM: Onboard AA 11 [1st impact, north tower], Atta keys the cockpit microphone in an attempt to communicate with the passengers. Instead, he transmits outside the aircraft and those transmissions are recorded on the ground. He says, "We have some planes. Just stay quiet and you'll be okay. We are returning to the airport." And then, “Nobody move. Everything will be okay. If you try to make any moves, you’ll endanger yourself and the airplane. Just stay quiet.”
