They were definitely not intended yo be the planes pilots, but they did take flying lessons to prep for it.

vrek@programming.dev 10 months agoThey weren’t pilots… Killing people is wrong regardless of religion or profession but you should know the people who did 9/11 were passengers who basically broke into the cockpit and took it over.

They were taking pilot lessons to learn how to maximize the damage. The flight instructors raised concerns but nothing was done and the FAA gave them a commercial pilot certificate.

Sure, in the prime timeline. But in the pocket universe alternate timeline where time travelers went and executed the perpetrators, I’d say the instructors’ concerns were addressed
