After the hijacking the tower told aircraft approaching to "circle the field." Aircraft are never told to do this. Instead they would be given specific holding pattern instructions. If the tower was telling them to do this, an airplane would likely be told to "hold (whichever direction) of the outer marker." Multiple aircraft could not do this and would have to be passed back to approach control for those instructions as to altitudes insuring a thousand feet in altitude clearance for each aircraft.
