"The second wave ... Those plans were aborted mainly because of the decisive U.S. response to the New York and Washington attacks"

We grounded all aircraft!

I'd be very curious what the 5 west coast targets were, or 4, because one of them was supposed to be the LA Library.

The L.A. Central Library is not a tower, by any stretch.

Even more of a question is where are the islamakazis who were "going" to hijack those flights planned for those targets ? They still in country ?

Stay safe !

I got the impression KSM was suggesting the second wave would be coming days or weeks after 9/11, not later that afternoon.

Shouldn't be too hard to make some guesses...
- The TransAmerica Pyramid in SF
- The Bank of America (formerly Columbia) Tower in Seattle

(I keep thinking of the Philip Burton Federal Building in SF which houses the FBI, the 9th Circus Court, and several other federal agencies... but I don't know...)

The Skyscraper Page might provide some ideas.
