Wow. You must understand that 9/11 was UNEXPECTED, and nobody even KNEW that it would happen. Airplanes fly around all the time!!! Especially over New York, a massive world business center.
Don't be dense. Most people (even the FAA) didn't even realize that the first WTC impact was an airliner. A few ATC guys might have had some idea that a few planes weren't communicating, but that's something that happens several times per year. It wasn't until just a minute or two before the second plane hit that anyone realized it and by then, almost every fighter on the east coast was in the air. The volume of airspace to cover is huge and we're talking a dozen fighers. Absurd!
