posted by Zaphod58 reply to post by SylviaPlathHow can you possibly know that? Evidence please. How often do Boeing 757 sized commercial aircraft fly within 35-50 feet over cars and pedestrians at 535 mph with both turbofan engines allegedly at full throttle? Where would this evidence have occurred, besides at the Pentagon where the actual aircraft flew Over the Naval Annex and Over the cars and pedestrians and light poles at a much slower speed and 50 to 80 feet above ground level??
Really? I must have missed the vehicles I was in flipping over when we drove behind those planes running engines on the ground. Or all those people dying when they walked behind the same plane. A large parked plane running engines at power, under the right conditions CAN flip a vehicle. That same large airplane in flight won't do anything but rock a vehicle back and forth. It CERTAINLY won't kill someone on foot or anyone else.
posted by Zaphod58 reply to post by SPrestonThose people in your 1st video are about 300 feet behind the engines (much further than the truck was) and in the 2nd video about 400 feet behind the engines. It didn't sound like the engines went to full throttle until after the 747s were rolling down the runway. The pilots knew full well those people were back there. Regardless, there was no 535 mph 90 ton 757 over the superturf Pentagon lawn and staged light poles to bowl people and cars over, because the aircraft was actually flying Over the Naval Annex at a much slower speed. Your 9-11 Pentagon OFFICIAL STORY is collapsing faster than you guys can prop it back up.
Here are videos of heavy planes taking off at St Maarten. The runway is across a road from the beach, and people stand right behind the planes watching them take off, and cars drive right behind them on take off and landing. The people get blasted, but they don't (always) get thrown, and they don't get hurt.
Wake turbulence is turbulence that forms behind an aircraft as it passes through the air. This turbulence includes various components, the most important of which are wingtip vortices and jetwash. Jetwash refers simply to the rapidly moving gases expelled from a jet engine; it is extremely turbulent, but of short duration. Wingtip vortices, on the other hand, are much more stable and can remain in the air for up to three minutes after the passage of an aircraft. Wingtip vortices make up the primary and most dangerous component of wake turbulence. Wake turbulence is especially hazardous during the landing and take off phases of flight, for three reasons. The first is that during take-off and landing, aircraft operate at low speeds and high angle of attack. This flight attitude maximizes the formation of dangerous wingtip vortices. Secondly, takeoff and landing are the times when a plane is operating closest to its stall speed and to the ground - meaning there is little margin for recovery in the event of encountering another aircraft's wake turbulence. Thirdly, these phases of flight put aircraft closest together and along the same flightpath, maximizing the chance of encountering the phenomenon.en.wikipedia.org... The exhaust from the engines wouldn't react against the cars long enough to flip them over. Not even at close range, because the plane is moving away from them at high speeds. The strongest point of the exhaust is directly behind the engine, at close range. [edit on 4/14/2009 by Zaphod58]

And of course, people still thinking gobermint' agents are behind it.
New and interesting stuff posted, will be helpful when arguing later that a Boeing did hit the Pentagon.
The no Boeing theory always stank of deliberate disinformation to cloud and confuse the legit questions about 9/11 and the oddities of the whole
offical story.
