cars and planes take place in the same universe. in the cars movies, we see sentient cars boarding sentient planes.

so, was this still a hijacking? how do you hijack a sentient plane?

I think in cars 2 someone turns a MASSIVE boat around against its will, I imagine planes might also work the same way

Maybe Bin Laden recruited radicalised Boeings.

Maybe the Towers were whistleblowers

Maybe they never built WTC in this universe.

there are too many historical references in the films for this to be a simple oversight.

my favourite will always be that the car pope is in cars 2, in the glass cube of the popemobile. the popemobile only has the glass sides because of an assassination attempt in the 1970s, which means that there has textually been a car pope assassination attempt in this universe.

Boeings are built radicalized.

This checks out with the theory that the Cars universe is set far into the future where insects have evolved into looking like vehicles.
