From 9/11 Encyclopedia:
At least 6 FAA-warnings during 2001 had been confirmed:
January 2001:
As confirmed in an AP-report (John Solomon) from May
2002, the FAA received a personal warning by the manager of the JetTech flight school in
Phoenix on Hani Hanjour.
Peggy Chevrette, the JetTech
manager, called the FAA
inspector John Anthony, who oversaw her school three times in January
and February 2001 to express her concerns about Hani Hanjour.
"I
couldn't believe he had a commercial license of any kind with the
skills that he had," she said.
Jet Tech was closed in September 2001.
It was owned by the Pan Am International Flight Academy.
John Anthony "did observe Hani's limited knowledge of flying" and "did check his flight credentials. He did tell Marilyn Ladner, a vice president for the Pan Am International Flight Academy , they were valid, so he did follow up on our concern," she said. Chevrette, the flight school manager, said she told Anthony she believed Hanjour could not write or speak English fluently as required to get a U.S. commercial pilot's license. Chevrette said she was surprised when FAA official Anthony suggested the school might consider getting a translator to help Hanjour.
In May 2002 John Anthony refused to be interviewed on that detail. Hanjour did not finish his studies at JetTech and left the school. His last flight license was already expired in 1996. Later the FBI claimed, that it was algerian pilot Lotfi Raissi (->), who helped Hani Hanjour flying Jets. But this was debunked as false. Raissi was plead unguilty in March 2002.
June 22nd 2001 The FAA issued a bulletin that had concerns
about terrorism.
July 2nd 2001 The FAA told the airlines the man
involved in the millennium plot had intention of using explosives in
terminal buildings.
July 18th 2001 The FAA issued a bulletin that said
there are terrorist threats and we urge you to use caution.
July 31
2001 The FAA issued a bulletin that there are going to be terror groups
planning and training for hijacking and used caution.

Unexplained, the FAA security took no action against another alert at a flight school in August 2001. It was yet another Pan Am school in Minnesota, who contacted the FBI about a different Arab student who raised concerns by seeking jetliner training. That student, Zacarias Moussaoui (->), was immediately arrested in August 2001. He trained at a flight school in Norman Oklahoma. One employee, a whistleblower of the FAA, James Hopkins, was fired after he told his supervisors that an airport security trainee might be linked to a Sept. 11 hijacker. He was reassigned at the end of May 2002. Source: nandotimes.com/nation/story/416665p-3322173c.html
