I disagree. What did the terrorists do that was so sophisticated? Go to flight school? They had a great idea, use a fully fueled jet as the weapon, but this doesn't seem to be the work of immense genius.

The work that they did that was incredible is avoiding detection for so long. Its clear that the FBI had tabs on atleast a couple of the involved hijackers; that they never got a clue that such a thing was being planned is what's so incredible. These guys must have had to communicate somehow during the planning phase, and realize these guys don't really have access to things like cryptographic talent etc., so how in the world did they manage to plan this?
