    Reality check here…
    1. American Airlines at Boston didn’t get a security for 1 hijacker it got 3.
    2. The mini-series shows them following the security proceedures required as per the 9/11 commision report which the same staff testified to.
    3. Rather than showing staff not visibly reacting to a security warning (the reaction involves putting a bag to one side instead of the other) the actors were given dialogue to explain the security warning and required proceedure to the viewer.
    4. This was portrayed in a mini-series where it was explained that events shown were compressed. They accurately showed what happened. The only variation was that they used the name of the only hijacker anyone can name.
