08:46:15: New York told me to hold on, you heard that, right?

08:46:36: Come on New York. (Dooley again) You know what, you know what, let’s
get a tail number off of for American 11. (Roundtree) Call Boston, American 11 tail
number. (Dooley) Tell them we need the tail number of the aircraft, (male voice)
American one one. (Roundtree to New York) Yes it is, (right now he’s primary only.)
Do you have Mode 3 or anything? Or a location? (Fm not showing anything, no.) Lat
Ion? (Hold on, I’ll get a lat lon.) Good.

NORTH TOWER IS STRUCK AT 8:46:48.

08:47:05: (Dooley?) We’re going to get an updated lat Ion now. (to background
question) We called Boston his filed one [Mode 3] was 1443, but he’s not working that,
he’s primary only, we’re getting an updated lat Ion position. (I’m showing 40 39 North.)
40 39 North. (74 03 West) 74 03 West.

08:47:35: End of HUNTRESS call to NY AMIS

You get an airspace 2.5 South of the WTC, on the EXACT trajectory Flight 11 would have taken.

So, NEADS picked up Flight 11 2.5 miles south of the WTC by primary radar at 8:47, less than a minute after it allegedly hit the North Tower.

Does anyone else see a problem here?
