It's more likely that she knew more than she was letting on than she just figured out it was a plane.
After they said, "A plane hit the towers." I'm sure.
Bull. It was pure speculation and unconfirmed reports until the second collision. MOST reports said it was a bomb.

No, I was walking from the Penn Station to if you have every walked in Times Square there is no audio sometimes there is closed captioning, of which the closed caption did not state anything more than there was someting happening at WTC. When I walked into the building and turned up the volume on the TVs they were still wondering what had caused the damage to the building. I still thought that it was a plane that hit the building again I cite the ESB plane crash of 1945 which I sent to another coworker who didn't believe me when I suggested that it was a plane that crashed into the building, they stated,"Impossible!"
I know New York history quite well especially when it comes to terrorism and other histories about death and destruction, things that lots of people have forgotten like the Manhattan Mad Bomber who left bombs all over NYC from 1940 to 1956. Sixteen years that people lived in fear of him. New York City faced years of terror as bomb after bomb was discovered in public places all over the city. More than 30 bombs would be found in phone booths, public libraries, transit stations, and movie theaters.
The subway tests to see if lethal substances could be transferred via the subway systems in 1966.
These things have always intrigued me because of the density of the city. It takes time to get people out of the city, and takes time to get people out of buildings.
I do like the second video... how the plane is black and white and can't be the SAME plane at all.
Living on the Lower East Side of Manhattan right on the river, I live in light and shadows quite easlily since there are no buildings to obstruct my sunlight, especially in the morning and in the evenings when the sun. Because of me seeing that a building illuminated by the morning sun, it is easy to understand how someone standing in New Jersey looking EASTWARD to the Towers sees a DARK plane versus someone who looks from westward would see an illuminated plane.
a good example of the shadow cone from an object's point of reference
