THE Flight That Fought Back features personal accounts of witnesses and first-time interviews with families and friends of the heroes of Flight 93, which crashed into a field in Pennsylvania on September 11, 2001.
The 90-minute special, a combination of documentary and dramatisation, chronicles the heroism of the 33 passengers and seven crew members on United Airlines Flight 93, which was hijacked and flown toward Washington, DC, before it crashed.
The Flight That Fought Back is a minute-by-minute retelling of the plane's final moments as those on board fought to regain control of the aircraft. It was developed with unprecedented cooperation from United Airlines and unparalleled access to the families and friends of those on board.
Since no one can know what actually happened on Flight 93, The Flight That Fought Back is based on research, comprehensive evidence including the September 11 Commission Report and voice recordings left by passengers and crew members, along with extensive interviews with family and friends and their personal conjectures on how their loved ones would have reacted to the situation. *
