What are the odds that a plane would hit one of the Twin Towers?

You said they were told to intercept the plane. If the plane flew away from the coast, inland, then there would be no reason to fly over the Atlantic. Also, the speed laws don't apply over open ocean. So either: they flew over the Atlantic and dragged their feet or, they flew over land and dragged their feet.

As you said, they didn't know there was a target with Flight 11. They went to intercept Flight 11. With Flight 77, they had an idea of what was going on so they went to DC.
