911 Truth - Somebody Please Give It To Me!

No...they are not. Just look at the AAL paint scheme! There's hardly any!

That paint scheme concept grew out of the fact that the paint contributes a lot of weight. Less paint, and depending on the airplane, you can save thousands of pounds. Plus, it is their iconic 'logo'.

The weight savings (and consequential fuel savings) are offset, though, by the man-hours needed to polish the aluminum skin, to keep it looking pretty. You will note, on the more modern jets, pieces that are composites (carbon fibre, epoxy honeycomb, etc.) are painted...because in their natural state they are usually black, or dark grey.

The metal structure of the airplane is what reflects RADAR to return a 'primary' target.

Somehow the 9/11 triggers terror action by other so-called-muslims in my country, before that there was none as far as i remember. Im a Muslim, 9/11 really doesnt effect our life so much (except that suddenly theyre Balinese and christian groups who hate us) here but many of my families abroad were sent back to my country because suddenly they were seen as the real terrorists (eventhough theyre just Normal muslims like me and have nothing to do with 9/11) :-/

I find your feigned innocence quite offensive. As others have stated, there are dozens of threads
here that might be helpful to you.

Is it possible to buld a skyscraper that size which could not withstand multiple airliner impacts? It was only supposed to sway 3 feet in a 150 mph wind. The design problem is making skyscrapers handle the wind from any direction. A plane only applies force in a small area whereas the wind spreads the force out.

Your question presumes an airliner could destroy it but after SEVEN YEARS we don't even have a table specifying the steel and concrete on every level. The south tower was only deflected 14 inches by the impact and then oscillated for four minutes. This BELIEF that the plane could bring the building down is a lot of emotional nonsense.
