no further Worrriation provided was interviewed
regarding the matter under investigation. After she was provided
the identity of the interviewing Agent, she advised the
following:

She was a former flight attendant for US Airlines. On


September 11, 2001, she was to fly from New York, La Guardia
Airport on US Airlines flight 147, to Charlotte, North Carolina
at 9:00 a.m. She boarded the plane, sitting in 8-F, and noticed
two middle eastern males sit on the row in front of her, seats 7-
D and 7-F. The UNSUBS were dressed in shirt and slacks, no
further description available. At the time these two unknown
males drew her attention because they kept looking toward the
back of the plane and appeared nervous. One UNSUB was carrying a
camera no further description was available. As the plane
taxied out to runway, the UNSUBS got up and moved to the empty
exit row behind her, row 9, seats 0, E, F. At that time the
plane was stopped from taking off and it returned to the terminal
due to the World Trade Center being bombed.

She did not pay any further attention to the two males,
but since finding out about the circumstances surrounding the
hijackings on September 11, she wanted to report the suspicious
behavior of the UNSUBS.

Jonas, DOBi I

cellular telephone! J was contacted by Special Agent


SAl ^ ] FBI/NY. Jonas was advised of the identity of
the interviewing SA, and as such provided the following
information:

Jonas reported that on September 11, 2001, in accordance


with her duties as Senior Vice President of Publicity, Marimax
Films, 11 Beach Street, 4th floor, New York, New York., she was
traveling to Toronto, Canada, to attend the annual Canadian film
festival. Jonas's flight was scheduled to depart from La Guardia
Airport LGA, Queens, New York, at 9:10 a.m., on Air Canada flight
number 3305.

Jonas arrived in the departure terminal area at


approximately 8:40 a.m. While waiting she noticed a very
attractive man UNSUB1, who by his body language appeared to be
very agitated. His agitation was later verbally expressed when
said out loud VA FONGULA PHONETIC. Jonas recalls hearing such an
expression before, but could not immediately remember the
circumstances under which she heard it. After reflecting for
9/11 Law several minutes, she recalled having a Moroccan friend who often
use a similar expression. Jonas advised that her friend told her
Enforcement it meant "FUCK YOU" in Arabic.
Privacy
Jonas related that at approximately 9:05 a.m., an airline
representative announced the boarding of the flight. As passengers
started making their way toward the gate attendant, she noticed
that UNSUB1 picked his leather like duffle bag up and departed from
the gate area. Jonas thought this was odd, because it appeared
that UNSUB1 was anxious to get on the airplane.

After boarding the airplane and finding her seat, Jonas


and the rest of the passengers were informed, through the airplanes
intercom system, about the World Trade Center explosions. All the
passengers immediately became concerned, but she noticed one
passenger UNSUB2 in particular, because he was very loud with his
