so back to my point...why is the landing gear embedded into the external steel mesh it such a fashion.... does it make sense to others?.

In physics, elasticity is the physical property of a material that returns to its original shape after the stress (e.g. external forces) that made it deform is removed. The relative amount of deformation is called the strain.

those buildings were imploded by shear charges set in exposed columns and were most likely implanted during building inspections or possibly even implanted during construction. there was no way in hell that a single hit from a passenger jet would have had the capability to strike at an upper level in those buildings to bring them down to ground level. the upper part of the building if failed?. would have just slid off in one massive piece.
90% of the fuel was expended on impact, so what little fire was involved, and what little fragments of aluminum were left, had no bearing on the overall support column superstructure. the planes weren't made out of magnesium, so the low melting point of aluminum would have quickly melted and cease burning within minutes. and would have not started any secondary fires.....steel wont liquefy from diesel fuel burning near it , on it, under it, around it. especially when it is 1" thick.. it has absolutely no effect on it other than scorching the paint...lol
i say since the government enjoys wasting our money on stupid #. they should completely reconstruct under supervision by trusted private contractors, one replica trade center. exactly to specification. then fly the same type aircraft into it. then lets see if the results are the same?
it shouldn't matter where the plane hits. i assure you the results wont be the same and that replica wont do anything but make a few noises and smolder for a while.
Anything further about metal being plastic at temperature?
How about 3000 years of iron working .......
Heat metal until real hot then shape it to desired form while hot - its how blacksmiths make horseshoes and
many other metal items for thousands of years
As metal is heated becomes more and more malleable - aka plastic

So in other words as you were saying about the WTC [which is the topic of course] that would be a no.
BTW metal techniques used years ago have little to no significance to the steel that has Molybdenum added, making the process of forging extremely difficult.
Hence the reason why the add the stuff to steel to make skyscrapers, its tough under the heat and the pressure.
Have a good day
But if the metal was so perfect the way it was, it would not have needed fireproofing. The fact of the matter is that the plane MUST have sheared off the fire-proofing on a lot of the steel upon impact. It created a huge hole for crying out loud, so I think it's not far-fetched to imagine it scraped some stuff off the metal.

I don't understand your positioning, are you for or against the OS? You seems to fight for both sides and that is well difficult to digest.

The point I make is that the majority of truther arguments are unfounded.

The more you speak the funnier it gets,
The fact is , is that nothing you say has had a shred of even possible truth in it,, other than planes hit the building, after that point none of it even resonates with the other debunkers,
I am so fascinated by your apparent belief that damage and heat of such nature can entirely smash and vaporize an amazingly intense-grid structure...
Personally a jet like those smashing into ANY building will not cause this to happen, and yet you think it can happen here...
Continue posting, it keeps the thread going i guess.

You know, calling something government dis-info doesn't make it suddenly false. You have to prove that the points they are presenting are not true. So far, every argument by the "dis-info agents" has made complete sense and followed not just partial observations of the event, but the complete observation. Most truther arguments select a single point out of the entire day and try to say that their one idea caused everything, when there is no supporting evidence from the rest of any of the footage to corroborate that idea.
