The DOD transcript has not been posted yet. The CNN transcriber could have misunderstood, however I got a FR post from a new freeper on the day of Rumsfeld speech who posted that Rumsfeld stated shot down. But when I checked on that freeper yesterday, I found that evidently she/he had signed up just to make that one post.

I recall watching the talk that day and I recall Runny was talking off the cuff and he nearly forgot about the crashed plane and added it in before he finished his thought.

I thought he said "brought down".

If he did not,I did not catch it and it would certainly have been a simple flub.
