Best Answer

19 terrorists boarded 3 different passenger planes and hijacked them. All 3 planes crashed in about a 20-30min interval.

The last plane missed, we will never know why, but we have a guess: The passengers steered the plane off course to save lives or the terrorists just missed their mark.

The attacks of September 11 were reportedly set up to include 5 terrorists per plane. In the case of the towers, there were 5 on each, so your answer is 10. However, while 5 were reported to be on Flight 77 which hit the Pentagon, Flight 93 (Pennsylvania) only had 4 on board as 1 reportedly chose not to board at the last moment.

There were 5 terrorists on every plane except Flight 93 which had 4. So, 5 per tower meaning 10 total were involved in the demolishing of the towers.
