discounts the popular perception of insurgent passengers grappling with terrorists to seize the plane's controls.

I don't know that this was really the perception.

I never thought the heros of Flight 93 were capable of flying a commercial aircraft.

It was always my perception that their intention was to crash the plane sooner rather than later.

They knew what the outcome was going to be they just wanted to influence the outcome in the favor of less loss of life.

One of the passengers was indeed a pilot and could have flown the plane.
