Opposing Digits

THE following is the full transcript of the cockpit voice recorder aboard United Airlines Flight 93, which was hijacked on September 11, 2001 and crashed in Pennsylvania after passengers stormed the cockpit.
On its regular leg from Newark International in New Jersey to San Francisco (en route to Japan), Flight 93 was hijacked on September 11, 2001 and crashed in a field in Shanksville, Pennsylvania, about 240km northwest of Washington after passengers, who found out they were being hijacked through mobile phone calls, stormed the cockpit.

The audio recording was played overnight at the sentencing trial of confessed al-Qaeda conspirator Zacarias Moussaoui. The tape itself is not being released, at the request of victims' families.

The voices heard on the tape were not identified on the transcript released by the court, only whether they were speaking in Arabic or English.
