I asked a question of this newsgroup a year or more ago about
the 9/11 hijackings' impact on ATC personnel. Somebody gave
a wise ass answer that this was classified.

It now has been "declassified" and the Discovery Channel
had a program about the very subject. The program answered
my question and showed that the impact on the controllers
was quite traumatic (as I suspected it was).

I purchased a DVD titled "Clearing the Skies" produced by the BBC. Is
the the program that aired on the Discovery Channel?

I didn't even know DoT has a security system that includes
classification of documents. If it were a DoD program, I would ask the
"classifying authority" is and have a chat with him/her. It could be
classified by a document (policy) and you can get a copy of that.

Unfortunately, I don't remember and I've erased it from the
DVR. It had something about Tom Brokaw in the title.

No. It's a good program and has been on the Discovery
Channel also, but it's not the program I cited.
