One possible solution I came up with is to have a 50-100 mile radius
"no-fly zone" around all major cities. The main problem is that you'd
have to abandon many (most?) of the current airports and rebuild them
in rural areas, and connect the airports to the cities by high-speed
trains. The cost would be huge. Of course, not counting human lives, the
cost of rebuilding the WTC is huge, so maybe it is worth it.
