Page 57, note 94: perhaps it is in this note that we should recognize the
1974
attempted suicidehijacking

Chris) about which
I was
asked
on a
local
NPR
interview last week; also note that
there are
several redundant

second paragraph:
"As a
consequence":
I
don't believe that
theinadequate
notices
to
NORAD
were
a
consequence
of
improvisation,
in
fact, they might have been worse
if
protocol
had
prevailed.
A
better lead-
in
would
be
"
In the
event".Chapter 2, pages1-8,require significant changes if Chapter
11
is modified to
include
the materials I
read
on Wednesday. At the least, the dismissive adjectives I criticized must go and you should consider thegeneral tone
of
these pages.Page 3, line
