I have circled the object that may be the infamous "mystery plane" possibly a command and control E-4.

I would hardly call it a stealth jet like in that video. It's an E-4B NAOC that was flying out of Andrews all that week for the exercises going on. There was also a C-130 that identified the 757 before impact.

^Well of course that's the official story, but seeing as most of us believe this was an inside job, and they lied to us, then why should we believe that story...
The exercises that day were to provide a distraction and confuse those that should have protected the country. The pieces of the puzzle are fitting together nicely...

There was another white plane spotted at the WTC also, was it the same kind of plane?

UMMM, must have been really great timming to have an E-4 and a C-130 in the area and to have the excercises going on at the same time.
Since when do they need an E-4 for just a simple excercise ? They are for in case of a national emergency. We have other aircraft that can keep track of and control an excercise.
Also good timming and fast C-130 to be at the Pentagon and the Flight 93 crash sites.

The flight path of the C-130 carried it near Flight 93s impact area. And NAOC DOES occasionally participate in exercises. It's not like they just sit and wait to launch, they DO have to train sometimes too.

So you guys are still hanging on to the illusion that fire bought the towers down? You got to be smarter than that, especialy being ATS members?

I have my own thoughts on it, and I'm sticking to them, and I'm done debating or discussing anything about it.

"Thier were unconventional high explosives (commercial jet fuel), unconventional delivery (aluminum aircraft, associated metals and oxides) to create high explosive blasts, extreme temperatures from thermite reactions that caused the collapse of the towers."

Yeah OK, ignore all the evidence and stick to the official story.
I got ya...
Not discussing anymore? Cause there's nothing to discus, it's over. You know as well as I do, don't ya? (that's a rhetorical question BTW, I know what your answer will be)...

You're right. There is nothing to discuss. Not when you have people telling you that you have no clue what you're talking about, despite having first hand experience of it

Or are you still clinging to the illusion of 'natural thermite reactions'?
You're really hard to read sometimes Ultima1, you're confusing me with contradictions...
There could have been thermite reactions between molten aluminum and the conrete dust and gypsum dust. Molten aluminum is certainly a possibility since the fires were hot enough to melt aluminum. Molten aluminum appeared to be pouring out one of the towers. There was plenty of aluminum in the aircraft and also the facade of the buildings.
There are thermite reactions that can take place between the molten aluminum and the concrete and gypsum dust. Aluminum gives off a lot of heat when it oxidizes or forms hydroxides. There was plenty of oxygen and water in the gypsum and concrete dust particles. Molten aluminum is known to sometimes react violently with concrete when spilled on it. There would have been a very high interfacial area between fine dust particles and any molten aluminum puddles in the pit after the collapse to help the chemical reaction go. That could explain why there were local hot spots that remained for many weeks.
Conventional thermite reactions require very high temperatures for initiation. These cannot be reached with conventional black-powder fuses, nitrocellulose rods, detonators, or other common igniting substances. Even when the thermite is hot enough to glow bright red, it will not ignite as it must be at or near white-hot to initiate the reaction. It is possible to start the reaction using a propane torch if done correctly, but this should never be attempted for safety reasons. The torch can preheat the entire pile of thermite which will make it explode instead of burning slowly when it finally reaches ignition temperature.
