coug,

Re:
Was he practicing on simulators only?


The best place I'm aware of to research such questions is Paul Thompson's excellent "The Complete 9/11 Timeline":

A search on "Moussaoui" yields the following results:

Re: Could he learn enough from that to pull it off?

Simulators are highly realistic and have been used successfully to train pilots since the 1960s. But that misses the point entirely.

Recall that of the 19 purported hijackers on 9/11/01 that at least six of them announced their existence in the months subsequent to the event. The whole "hijacker" story seems to many of us to be simply a red herring, with the Arabs serving as patsies for the chief conspirators.
