It appears that the versions of the NORAD tapes at Governmentattic.org have been slightly shortened. If you download the full WAV versions, you should get the correct times. These are available here:<br /><a href="http://www.erpn.org/NORAD-911.htm" rel="nofollow">http://www.erpn.org/NORAD-911.htm</a><br />and here:<br /><a href="http://www.911myths.com/index.php/Stand_Down" rel="nofollow">http://www.911myths.com/index.php/Stand_Down</a><br />(and probably elsewhere on the Net.)<br /><br />On Channel 2, someone says "Let’s get rid of this goddamn sim. Turn your sim switches off. Let’s get rid of that crap" at 9:30 a.m. Then, on Channel 15, at 9:34 a.m., you hear an announcement to all the NEADS personnel, saying, "All surveillance, turn off your sim switches."<br /><br />The time at the start of the tape would be in Zulu time, which as one of the controllers in this transcript--<br /><a href="http://www.scribd.com/doc/13484898/911-Air-Traffic-Control-Transcript" rel="nofollow">http://www.scribd.com/doc/13484898/911-Air-Traffic-Control-Transcript</a><br />--points out, "Zulu time is four hours difference from Eastern Standard Time."<br /><br />I hope this helps you.Shoestringhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01534319150672667644noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2990970741097819876.post-74992541157119574702010-11-22T02:51:32.714-08:002010-11-22T02:51:32.714-08:00Hello,

After listening to the tape, I calculated 9.24 as a time for "turn the sim switches off", as it appears at 53:30 from the start of the tape, which is supposed to be 8.30:33.<br /><br />One further question: why is the time mark at the start of the tape, something like "12.30", meaning 4 hours plus New York Time. If it for example was to be UTC (Universal Time Code), it had to be 5 hours plus. Any suggestion?<br /><br />Thank you again.<br /><br />PaulPaul Schreyerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15756131361831504670noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2990970741097819876.post-11583382531727097192010-11-19T04:45:35.476-08:002010-11-19T04:45:35.476-08:00Hi Paul,
Thanks for your interest in this. I woul...Hi Paul,<br /><br />Thanks for your interest in this. I would likely have got times from two possible sources. (I forget exactly which I used, as I wrote this posting quite a while back.)<br /><br />Firstly, the transcript of the NEADS tapes here:<br /><a href="http://www.scribd.com/doc/14142009/NYC-Box-2-NEADS-Transcript-Rome-NY-Fdr-Transcript-Pgs-182-12371417" rel="nofollow">http://www.scribd.com/doc/14142009/NYC-Box-2-NEADS-Transcript-Rome-NY-Fdr-Transcript-Pgs-182-12371417</a><br />does include some times.<br /><br />But for accuracy, I would have listened to the original audio recordings of the NEADS tapes. These have been posted online at several websites. They are all available here:<br /><a href="http://www.governmentattic.org/docs/NORAD-USNORTHCOM_9-11_Tapes.pdf" rel="nofollow">http://www.governmentattic.org/docs/NORAD-USNORTHCOM_9-11_Tapes.pdf</a><br />(The links to the files are on page 2 of the PDF.)<br /><br />There is the voice at the beginning of each audio tape, saying the start time for that tape. So you can use this to calculate the time of a particular conversation on the tape.<br /><br />I hope this helps you.Shoestringhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01534319150672667644noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2990970741097819876.post-39583526147047864572010-11-19T04:02:33.855-08:002010-11-19T04:02:33.855-08:00Hello,

I read the original tape transcripts also. My question: How do you extracted the exact times (perhaps 9:30 a.m.) from the transcripts, where no times are ever mentioned?<br /><br />Thank you for your help,<br /><br />PaulPaul Schreyerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15756131361831504670noreply@blogger.com
