Some food for thought:

This comes from
web.mit.edu...

Which is well written and free of the usual hubris and outrageous claims we see with 911 stuff.

AA-11 was going at 429 mph and UA-175 was traveling at 503 mph. The aircraft were at about 1000 ft.

While the VNE (velocity not excede) is above those numbers (about 590 mph) there were lower and the best I can tell the VNE at FL10000 is int he 250-330 range based on several sources.

However, exceeding the VNE speed does not mean the aircraft will break up if you go over it. it does meant the aircraft can and will if it is subjected to those forces for a period of time. Also, the planes could have been well below that speed untill the they becan thier run at targets. The relativly short period flying basically straight and level is alot less strain on the airframe than turning and banking. They mauvered at the last second, but by then the fate was sealed

When are people going to "get over" the idea that thousands of New Yorker's saw planes hitting the towers? If you're going to make stuff up, why not just say little green men did 9/11?

Whatever you (and the few others who claim to have seen a plane) witnessed, was nothing more than a magic trick.

And there are people who saw missiles, and others who saw no plane, just an explosion. I suppose they're wrong, and you're right?

Every one of the videos violates laws of physics, therefore they're fake.

No planes hit the towers.

I was there, where the hell were you?!?!?! WE SAW the second plane hit the building!!!!!! If whoever did it pulled it off by using a hologram and speakers then I have to give them props.. because that def looked and sounded like a plane to me. And when my girlfriends dad died and called up before the building went down he said that he heard multiple explosions.. yes, there could have been bombs in the building, but just because there was bombs in the building doesn't mean that there were no planes.

I'd love to know who came up with this hologram theory, probably some idiot living on a farm with too much time on his hands.

Hmmmmmm never mind all the eyewitnesses, nevermind the plane wreckage, etc etc. The bottom line is this: The planes hit the towers, nothing the planes did violated the laws of physics. Those witnesses included my sister and brother in law

As far as Boeing not knowing what the breakup speed is of thier aircraft, I doubt that. The planes are tested to the point of destruction (Have you ever seen the wing failure test? They take a wing and bent the tip up untill the wing structure snaps. Its very impressive) and breakup speed is variable based on the age of the aircraft, weight etc. Neither plane was near a 767 MTOW so that would add some margin.

Dear hikix:

Please, pretty please tell us where you were standing when you saw UAL175 slam into the south tower. Better yet, why not start a new thread “I saw flight UAL175 with my own two eyes”, so that we finally have an easy-to-retrieve-record of a live 9-11 plane crash witness. This will help all of us further understand 9-11.

Greetings,
The Wizard In The Woods

I was not there, nor did I have to be to understand. I'm sorry about your girlfriend's tragedy, but aluminum airplanes don't glide into steel/concrete buildings. It violates basic, Newton's Laws of Motion. Since every video shows this, it means they're all fake.

Have you seen the Evan Fairbanks interview, btw?

Hmmmm you may want to pick up that physics book on your shelf and have a looksee at some point



Geeeee is this film bogus too? Seems like the F-4 went through that huge chunk of reniforced concrete.

That was with a much smaller aircraft with a whole lot less mass travaling at the same speed. Last I looked the walls of WTC were not make of 4+ feet or reinforced concrete

You might need a pair of eyeglasses. The F4 did not break through the wall.

But the wing tips made a signifigant progress through when it did. THe F-4 weights 30000 lbs empty and about 41000 typical load out. A Boeing 767 was in the neighborhood of 220000 pounds when it hit (180000 empty, 330000 max) If an F-4 can do that amount of damage what would an aircraft weighting over 5-6 times as much be capable of. Remember that this "wall" represented a hardened reactor containment wall. Not the exterior of WTC.
