Focus on the Cleveland, Ohio company. Why did it file for bankruptcy on September 13, two days after 9/11?

Who is Robert Weitzel?

The article says this company was not involved with any of the hijacked flights. Yet, there is an article that a Flight X, originally identified as Flight 93, landed at Cleveland Hopkins on 9/11, carrying 200 passengers. This story changed as the day wore on.
There were two flights that arrived within 15 minutes of each other that day at Cleveland Hopkins. The article is named "The Cleveland Airport Mystery" and is mirrored on many websites.

The article is quoted by Mike Ruppert in his "Crossing the Rubicon". Its basic claim (two emergency landings in Cleveland) is still unchallenged.

Two emergency landings in Cleveland. But only one was reported.
