You are shifting the argument.

Reheat and all of your war-crime-apologist buddies claimed that ANY north side approach is impossible.

We proved them completely wrong with math and physics.

However much the plane pulled-up is entirely irrelevant to this because if the plane was ANYWHERE on the north side as unanimously claimed by all the witnesses, and proven possible by math, it proves it did not hit the building.

So all other minor details such as exact bank angle, exact pull-up, exact radius etc. are irrelevant and have plenty of room for a significant margin of error and it is unreasonable to expect eyewitnesses to accurately report such things anyway.

The point is that you have NOTHING to prove the eyewitnesses all simultaneously hallucinated the plane on the north side.

You are resorting to micro-scrutinizing the witness statements to hide the absolute proven fact that it is entirely possible for a plane to fly north of the citgo.

You have no choice but to admit:

MATH AND PHYSICS PROVE A NORTH SIDE APPROACH IS ENTIRELY POSSIBLE FOR A CONVENTIONAL AIRCRAFT.

Period.

So unless you can point out the errors in the math presented, you have no choice but to concede.

Which is hypocritical.

If the alleged plane flew NOC, then it contradicts the official story. None of the official data about the plane can be relied upon, including speed.

Forcing math calculations that use the official speed is absurd, when there is no basis for the official speed being true or plausible. Did it fly at 500mph? 400mph? 300mph? No one can really know, if the alleged flight path was NOC, as all of the official data would be bunk.

It's perfectly valid to create legitimate NOC flight paths using lower speeds that contradict the official SOC flight path.

AND 11 of them state they saw the aircraft hit the building.

Regardless....this thread is about the MATH for the north side approach.

So stick with the thread then, and reconcile how your "math and physics" help a 90-ton airliner traveling 700 feet per second make that turn around the NEX service station to end up "50 to less than 100 feet" above the South Parking , unseen by anyone in the parking lot of a building that houses 25,000 people with thye lone exception of one (1) Pentagon policeman.

I know you don't like to and can't answer my questions, Craig, without anything but hand-waving, but I'd appreciate it if you could this time.

So what's it going to be? NoC and staged light poles then?



Pick a story and stick to it.

See above.

Who said it flew 700 fps on the North side? What's your source?

Please do tell...

Where do you get 700 fps from?

200 knots would be 370.4 kph (230.1 mph) (337.5 fps)
250 knots would be 463 kph (287.7 mph) (421.9 fps)
300 knots would be 555.6 kph (345.2 mph) (506.3 fps)

The official Flight 77 at 464.9 knots (861 kph) (535 mph) (784.6 fps) never happened. There is no need to use the speed of an aircraft which was not even in Virginia. Correct?



The fraudulent Flight 77 FDR never happened
The faked 84 RADES Data never happened
The C-130 coming up from the southwest shadowing Flight 77 never happened

pinch, if the alleged plane flew NOC, then there is no way to determine its true speed. You can't rely on official government speeds being correct, if the plane flew NOC, as it contradicts the official story.

unseen by anyone in the parking lot of a building that houses 25,000 people with thye lone exception of one (1) Pentagon policeman.

How many of those 25,000 people work outside the building, with an open, 360 degree view of the skyline?

Funny how these GL's forget that employees work INSIDE the Pentagon
building and are not playing with themselves outside all day.

Anyone who saw the incident was immediately silenced, or disrgarded
from MSM.

The government planted their own props and scripted witnesses
(IE: Lloyd England) and threw it all over TV land.

Reheat/Farmer: We're still waiting for the pull-up data to prove once again
a north approach is possible.

So what's it going to be? Your witnesses claim that the aircraft flew north of the NEX Service Station or your witnesses claim that the aircraft hit the building?

You cannot speak for them. You cannot bring out this ridiculous "they deduced the impact!" BS. You cannot say that what they say with regards to the aircraft hitting the building is untrue and maintain them as credible witnesses.

If your 11 "NOC + impact" witnesses had to recant one of those two seemingly irreconcilable events, which one do you think they'd dump? You really think they'd all of a sudden say "Ok...I guess the aircraft didn't really hit the building"?

I know you don't like to and can't answer my questions, Craig, without anything but hand-waving, but I'd appreciate it if you could this time.

Please answer mine without hand waving.

Are you Craig's surrogate now? Did he send you out to speak for him?

This whole discussion is precisely why no court case will ever come from the CIT sleuths. Their witnesses have *absolutely* no credibility - "deduced the impact" will get them laughed out of court every time.

Notice to all members!

Please discuss the topic in a respectful way and stop the name calling of even moderate names. This will only escalate and that leads to bad things like posts being removed and post bans, and we don't want that.

This is an interesting topic that I'm sure members are interested in, and nothing turns them off more than bickering. Of course that is the objective of some I'm sure, so be smart and don't fall into that trap. You will be more convincing if you can prove your side of the debate while maintaining civility.

Thank you.

This video is a prime example of Truther pseudo-science and the modern manufacturing process of snake oil.

Are the maths correct? Absolutely. Are the applications of theory correct? Absolutely.

However between the 6 and 7 minute mark it is mentioned that all variables are being pre-supposed because it is impossible to know the exact values involved. The values are pre-supposed based on "eye witness testimony".

If you look at the average plotting of the NoC path as posted ad naseum on these forums and in the video, you can see that the path that is mathematically analyzed in the video is actually to one extreme of the data. A more valid scientific approach to the problem would have been to use the mean (average) plot based on all of the accumulated testimony.

P4T/CIT have chosen a specific flight path that is on the extreme of the reports, not the average, in order to justify all other mathematical formula that follow in the film.

This is akin to disqualifying all testimony that places the plane any further north than the flight path presented in the film, or weighting some eye witness testimonies greater than others. This weighting or the reason as to why the extreme observed flight path were used were never offered, other than it was the flight path that most conveniently fit the mathematical "evidence" that P4T/CIT is attempting to convince us is valid and scientific.

Why? The application of the maths involved becomes more arguable and at some points contradictory to certain "credible" eye witnesses when applied to the mean flight path.

This video was constructed not as summation or recreation of the eye witness testimony, but rather as an attempt to find some form of mathematical "proof" as to support the as of yet unsupported eye witness testimony already presented.

This is exactly like trying to argue that a crime fits the evidence as opposed to the evidence dictating the nature of a crime.

The more I see from P4T/CIT, the more I can't tell if P4T/CIT are simply under-educated and ill-informed or simply outright disinformation to discredit 9/11 research in general by spamming enough information to bubble to the top of Google searches on the event.

EDIT: We'll also completely ignore that all altitude measurements are figments of P4T/CIT's imagination since no accurate altitude measurements were ever taken or presented in any graphical plot. This simply adds to the pile of questions as to the ignorance or disinformation of P4T/CIT.

Ouch. This one is gonna leave a mark.

Nice post.

This is a very large external quote. Please pardon this as I think (for those wondering why skeptics are focused on CIT's own witnesses) this post does a very good job explaining a core, central problem with CIT/PFTs latest You Tube video.

So whereas the math they present does seem to be accurate for the path they used, the path does not corresspond to the path described by their witnesses. Turcois states that the plane was no longer visible to him because it was below his line of sight beyond the embankment/roadway, many many others describe 'tree top' level or only a few dozen feet agl as it passed them.

This is absolutely RICH!

They agree the math is accurate so they completely switch the argument!

1. Turcios does NOT say that which is why the war-crime-apologist liar you cited did not bother to quote Turcios.

2. Now that the math has been presented the liars resort to micro-scrutinizing the same witnesses they believe all completely hallucinated the plane in a completely different place from reality!

The irony is sooooo thick you could cut it with a knife.

So now they believe all the little details from Lagasse, Brooks, and Turcios?

Ok great!

Then the plane was on the north side!

It's that simple.

We state that it is unreasonable to expect witnesses to mathematically accurate about any claims.

We state that it is the GENERAL claim that the plane was NoC that proves a deception. We don't rely on any single witness for any specific claim because we understand how witnesses are not computers and are quite fallible.

The war-crime-apologists reply by saying it is physically impossible for a plane to fly ANYWHERE NoC.

We prove them wrong and they go right back to the witnesses to micro-scrutinize specific little details (without even quoting them) while being forced to simultaneously suggest they all hallucinated the plane to begin with!

Think about the idiocy in this logic.

It's foolish and it simply demonstrates an absolute collapse of reason.

They've lost it and you are right behind them as you dutifully post their desperate illogical rants.
