On that day, there were four aircraft involved in the terrorist attacks: American Airlines Flight 11, United Airlines Flight 175, American Airlines Flight 77, and United Airlines Flight 93. All four hijacked planes crashed at different locations: 1. **American Airlines Flight 11**: Crashed into the North Tower of the World Trade Center in New York City. 2. **United Airlines Flight 175**: Crashed into the South Tower of the World Trade Center in New York City. 3. **American Airlines Flight 77**: Crashed into the Pentagon in Arlington, Virginia. 4. **United Airlines Flight 93**: Crashed into a field in Shanksville, Pennsylvania.
