9/11 rumor repeat steer not land jetliner

Steve Doocy on Fox 'n Friends, is at it again, this morning, during his weather report, he repeated the unsubstantiated rumor that 9/11 hijackers didn't want to learn how to land the plane, they only wanted to learn how to steer and take-off.

Doocy, listen up, that is not factual. Even one of the 9/11 Commission members said that had not been established.

The owner of the Minnesota flying school had reported to their local branch that one of his students had made a bizarre request. He only wanted to be taught how to steer a jetliner, and did not want to learn how to take off or land it. And when the owner had reminded the student that he would nevertheless have to pay for the full course, 8000 dollars, the student had not only agreed, but paid the money in cash.
