Who was the male in Flight 93's co-pilot seat?

[Woody Box]

Anthony Mazza was working at Newark Airport on 9/11. His job was to fuel United 93 before departure. Doing his job, he had a strange encounter:

Mazza entered the cockpit where he handed the fueling sheet to a young Caucasian male, well groomed, brown hair and a white shirt, who was sitting in the co-pilot's seat.
...
On Friday, October 12, 2001 Mazza saw a memorial for the crew of flight 93 and saw pictures of the co-pilot of flight 93. The picture was the actual co-pilot of flight 93, who was Leroy Homer. Mazza stated that he was certain that the co-pilot he spoke with was not Mr. Homer.

The fact that Mazza met neither Captain Jason Dahl nor first officer Leroy Homer is even more disturbing than the presence of the "male". Did Mazza maybe fuel the wrong United 93?

1. very interesting. wasn't one pilot a last minute fill-in?

and the pilots never flown together before also? i remember reading about how a football player noticed people boarding 93 from the ground instead of those walkway ramps.

[Woody Box]

2. yeah, i remember this story from the tarmac, too

if this football player is as authentic as Mazza would be great. But we still need more jigsaw puzzle pieces.

The last minute fill-in was John Ogonowski from Flight 11. But with Jason Dahl it could be similar.

3. whether 93 ever took off?

[Woody Box]

4. I'm convinced that Flight 93 took off

N591UA (Flight 93) sent an automatic message to the airline that it took off from the runway at 8:28. At least this one is for real.

10. Oh well if the airline says so..

the airlines received billions of dollars in post 9-11 compensation. Sure that's just a coincidence

11. The Airlines lost billions, went bankrupt and saw their industry.

.. enter a major downturn.

Sure, that's just what an already shaky industry needs :eyes:

6. BURLINGAME piloted flight #93 and .....

coincidentally ....

In October 2000 - Pentagon ran the first of two training exercises which
simulated a B-757 crashing into the Pentagon . . .

Charles Burlingame -- an ex-Navy F4 pilot worked in the Pentagon and
participated in this exercise ....

Burlingham retired and joined American Airlines where less than a year later his
B-757 allegedly crashed into the Pentagon . . .

:evilgrin:

[Bolo Boffin]

7. Are you saying that Burlingame was in on this? n/t

[eomer]

8. What are you trying to say? Flight 93 or flight 77? Burlingame or Burlingham?

Of course it is flight 77 at the Pentagon, flight 93 in PA. How could the same person pilot flight 93 and also crash a 757 into the Pentagon?

And why are there two different spellings for his name?

[KDLarsen]

9. Fail

Burlingame joined American Airlines in 1979.

Burlingame left the US Navy reserves and his post as liaison in the Pentagon in 1996.

Fail.
