'Staff members characterized Mr. Hanjour as polite, meek and very quiet. But most of all, the former employee said, they considered him a very bad pilot.

''I'm still to this day amazed that he could have flown into the Pentagon,'' the former employee said. ''He could not fly at all.''' -NYT 2002

"The US government has not been able to determine the origin of the money used for the 9/11 attacks. Ultimately the question is of little practical significance." -9/11 Commission Report

Sure. That would have been a lot more impressive if he had done a 7000-foot accelerating corkscrew dive, to then right the plane and fly parallel to the ground at 500+ mph to hit the opposite side of the target...for some reason.

I'm actually much more concerned about two of the largest and sturdiest steel and concrete structures ever built, redundantly engineered several times over, exploding spectacularly into dust and dismembered steel, cremating their occupants alive and spewing the fragments of their bones hundreds of yards in every direction. This from localized structural damage and a dying fire.

Then the government never doing any serious forensic investigation of the physical remains and not even trying to explain how the impacts and fire led to such total destruction.

Then, later that day, what would have been the tallest building in 25 states collapsed neatly and rapidly into its own footprint, allegedly from a single point of failure caused by a relatively minor fire. NIST was miraculously able to identify this unprecedented phenomenon without examining a single piece of the rubble.

You must be terrified to enter American buildings! I have more confidence in American engineering than you do, even though they've mostly failed to challenge this pseudoscience that makes them look so incompetent.

Huh? Are you trying to explain how rigid steel and concrete structures are so inherently unstable that they will crush themselves under their own weight, orders of magnitude more destructively than even controlled demolitions using explosives? Interesting. Maybe we can harness this phenomenon as an energy source.
