I've seen this doc more than once but it's good to revisit on the anniversary of 9/11. It really gives a sense of the import of what happened, how much worse things could have been, and first hand accounts of that day, from the President's staff to the reporters on the plane to President Bush himself. (For those who say our country was so unprepared, I say that's an unfair analogy - they did the best they could with the intel they had at the time. How does one prepare for an attack so evil it was beyond the imagination of rational people? Who would have dreamt such things? Only those who are truly consumed and controlled by evil themselves.) 9/11 was a tragedy that, even after 21 years, is still shocking and horrific and painful to hear about and remember. But remember we must, and learn from our the past, so it will not be repeated. Great documentary.
Plot summary
"9/11: Inside Air Force One" features interviews with President George W. Bush, Vice President Dick Cheney, Chief of Staff Andy Card, the pilot of Air Force One, Secret Service agents, as well as intelligence and military aides on board. Viewers will see the tragic day through the eyes of the nation's leaders and members of the civilian and military chain of command as well as recent footage captured aboard Air Force One. The documentary also reveals an astonishing and untapped resource - the formerly top-secret and recently declassified transcript of the conversation among the nation's military and civilian high command that took place that day, known as the Air Threat Conference Call. As no other record possibly could, this document shows the real-time struggles of our country's leaders to make sense of the scale of the attack, to formulate a coherent response, and to keep the President safe from harm.

Amazing how unprepared our government was. This documentary inadvertently exposes how inept some of the top officials in the US are. Scary.
