Atta had his pilots license before they even began plotting the attack. As far as the others, I'm not a pilot, but I suspect that crashing the plane is not all that difficult. Hani Hanjour, the pilot of AA 77, had an FAA commercial pilot certificate with a satisfactory rating so he had to be somewhat proficient. In any case, it's a stretch to refer to them as untrained.

The government told us all however, that these guys could barely fly a small plane, let alone a 757.


They didn't have to take off, land, maintain level flight and airspeed, or a multitude of other things needed to fly a single engine Cessna. The plane was already in the air in cruise configuration, all they had to know how to do was enter the locations of the buildings into the flight management system, and the planes would have flown there. It was known rhey had previously gone to the twin towers with handheld GPS units probably to verify the coordinates..

Exactly. It makes perfect sense that they were poor students. They would have been only interested in specific portions of the course.

When you don't have to be concerned with the plane or passengers surviving, the needed skill level drops considerably.

Your post makes sense.

What is the explanation for the lack of a plane sized entry hole in the Pentagon?

Even the WTC buildings had gigantic wing size holes in the sides of the buildings.

Pentagon had a 10' x 15' hole and allegedly no plane parts were found among the wreckage.

(all according to this conspiracy video: LINK )

I have never been a 9/11 truther, just looking for a logical explanation like your post above about the alleged damage (or lack of) in this video.

Mostly glass walls vs reinforced concrete may have something to do with it.

Bin Laden WAS on the Most Wanted List. But NOT for 9/11. He was wanted for other crimes such as the USS Cole. He was never formally charged with 9/11.
Of course he admitted it. What a spectacular thing to take credit for!

Again. It doesn't matter what you believe. Even if it's true, the fact that you saying it has no bearing on anything but your own personal self-gratification. If I said I believe the Clintons killed Seth Rich, so what? My opinion means nothing.

He discredited himself in the first couple of sentences when he claimed that "No plane wreckage was found."

He probably made himself a few easy bucks doing speaking engagements before the fad died down.

Not so. I'm relying on the words of the people I suspect of being behind 9/11. If you had a document written by Hillary where she laid out her reasons for wanting Seth Rich dead, it would be reasonable to SUSPECT her of the crime.

Thats nice.
The context was in reference to the FBI's "Ten Most Wanted" list.

Ummm. The pentagon is made out of thick reinforced concrete with blast resistant windows.

The towers were much less secure on the exterior.

I mean just think logically for just a second.

et the only photos which CrowPie posted show them extinguishing the flames with no plane in the building?



500 MPH, a shell of an aircraft, and 10,000 gallons of jet fuel. You see, the difference when a plane is shot down/or hits the ground, there is little to nothing to absorb the impact (speaking in terms of debris), just dirt (usually) when it hits the ground (which quickly compacts and it's plane vs. the earth), causing massive deflection. When a plane hits a stationary building, the building absorbs almost all of the impact (and moves with the impact) and the plane continues a ways, all while the building holds most of the debris and the rest burns in a very hot fire from the jet fuel. I question if most of the "conspiracy theorists" have taken even basic physics.

From my understanding it was just sheathed in limestone. If it had been reinforced concrete, the building would not have looked like that after.

quote:

Certainly the threat of any kind of terrorist attack on the building was far from the thoughts of the original designers. As a result, the Pentagon was constructed with a thin limestone facade over a brick infill between reinforced concrete floors, structurally supported by a reinforced concrete beam and column frame. Enough to protect from the elements but not from the potential forces of significant blast events.


So basically, its framework looked like this:

It was an airliner.

I know someone personally that helped recover pieces of bodies and identify them through DNA testing among other things. Literally on their knees many times scouring through rubble and debris picking up pieces and parts. They were identified as passengers from the airliner as well as the pentagon.
