He handed me a joystick and said we were going to play some kind of flight simulator game. My memory gets fuzzy after that. The man knows how to party.

It was the pilot (haha) episode of its spinoff show called the Lone Gunmen, but yeah. The Defense Department had been brainstorming airline terrorism false flag scenarios since at least Operation Northwoods in the early 1960s.

It's too bad the show was canceled on a cliff-hanger after the the first season. The guys stopped 9/11 and didn't even get any respect! The X-Files writers were so pissed that they killed off all three characters in a later episode.
