The pilots were probably killed at early stage, then the planes were flied by terrorists.

There is a reason why all planes were Boeing 757-767... these terroists were probably trained to flight this model.

Why not Airbus?

The pilots were heros, they could and probably did resist.

I don't believe only knives were used, I think something more lethal was involved so the crews were killed/controlled in such short time. Eg, that flight taking off Washington.
