		Sweeney's phone call, however, with details that coincide with the hijackers' takeover of the cockpit, could provide investigators with one of their most valuable pieces of evidence in reconstructing the hijackings.
		Sweeney, a 35-year-old mother of two young children, had worked for American Airlines for 12 years, usually taking weekend duty so she could spend more time during the week with her family in Acton, Mass.
		But even as she was relating details about the hijackers, the men were storming the front of the plane and "had just gained access to the cockpit." Then, she told Woodward, the plane suddenly changed direction and began to descend rapidly.

		A crew member on that flight, Madeline Amy Sweeney, (purportedly) was able to place a cell phone call to her ground manager during the hijacking.
		Sweeney claims that the hijackers had stabbed two flight attendants and slit the throat of a business-class passenger, killing him.
		It was impressive that she could do that.² Add to this, the troubling fact, that none of the names of the hijackers originally appeared on any of the publicly released passenger manifests, and consider that to this day, there have been no forthcoming explanations for any of these disturbing discrepancies.

		Shortly after this time, we are told, Madeline Sweeney and Betty Ong, flight attendants on this plane, made calls on their cell phones, alerting officials on the ground that a hijacking had just taken place.
		None of the pilots of the 4 hijacked planes sent the standard 4-digit alert code that morning, to notify ground controllers about their dilemma (the Flight 11 pilot had plenty of time to do this, since Sweeney said that passengers in First Class were being attacked first).
		It’s not that the pilots needed to send this code in order for ground control to have known what was going on--there were plenty of other warning signals going off.
