Re: "We were told that nobody ever listened to, transcribed or duplicated the tape," Mead said in the report sent to Sen. John McCain. The Arizona Republican asked the inspector general to look into how well the agency was cooperating with the independent panel investigating the attacks. Isn't it likely that Canadian air controllers (from Toronto, Montreal,...) eavesdropped all the conversations between US controllers and the hijacked airplanes? After all, those were CIVILIAN radio messages --hence not scrambled. It's also likely that CB/radio amateurs picked up the conversations... it happens worldwide... in the US alone, there're probably hundreds of retired radio amateurs who spend all the day listening to air traffic....
