If the 'CGI' nose appeared as a result of the footage shifting to the right, why was this not noticed when the comping was done? And why would the rest of the fuselage not appear 'over' the flames?

The fact that many are willing to speculate that what was witnessed on September 11, 2001 by millions all over the world, and thousands in person in New York City was any kind of fabricated illusion is utterly absurd, and insults the intelligence of everyone involved, especially those who may be diverted from seeking real truths surrounding the attacks of that day, to waste time debating and discussing such trivial and obviously contrived crap.
However, you all have the right to pursue anything you wish, no matter what others may think, myself included.
But seriously?

I could do it with Maya and Adobe Premiere/After Effects in just a matter of a few minutes

Absolutely. Let's face it - the circle of complicity in the conspiracy would have to be impossibly wide to accommodate what's being discussed.

..... (in the 17 second live-feed delay allegedly used to complete the comp job) why did they a) not mask the nose as well and more importantly b) not see it and scrub it out in the first place?

"Better yet, and a much simpler explanation, how about the holes, fireballs and subsequent damage being the result 200,000+ pound commercial aircraft flying at or near top speed? laden with fuel and having more than sufficient kinetic energy and mass to accomplish said task."

The above materials, are no match for the building materials in question, despite the velocity involved, because projectile impact energy is based upon velocity ... weight ... 'and' ... density taken together.
The media showed IMPOSSIBLE video footage of the nosecone exiting the other side, several news commentators even said, "and it flew right through the building!",
If you really want to know, the truth about this, then watch the video again.

Aircraft aluminum (2024 T3) has a tensile strength that is similar, or greater to sheet steel, and not much lower than annealed bars of steel.

Even so, there is NO steel made that could POSSIBLY resist the impact of a 200,000lb object, moving at 500+mph.

The idea that it would just bounce off, or somehow not go through it is ludicrous.

You're doing exactly what other people that make this claim do, and you're talking about the skin, and completely ignoring the structure that's inside.

Main spars, and ribs are extremely strong very dense beams that run through the structure of the wings, tail, and fuselage.

But, in my opinion, the claims put forth in September Clues is about as far removed from the realm of possible as could be fathomed.
Abolhassan Astaneh-Asl, a civil engineering professor at the University of California, Berkeley, has constructed a realistic computer simulation of the World Trade Center North Tower being hit by a jet airplane. Astaneh's model has simulated the first few seconds of the plane's impact and entry into the building, and he is refining the model to include damage to the plane, the building floors and the internal core columns. The next step will be to include the effect of fire heating the damaged structure and initiating its final collapse.

BTW, that "banner" is called the "lower third" and there's nothing conspiratorial about it happening to 'hide' something that may be important to some fringe conspiracy theorists 5 years later.

Velocity, weight and density. Yes, but I feel you are being far too dismissive of the cumulative potential or destructive effect held by the sum total.

Straw is a lightweight [low mass density] material, yet when propelled by the winds of a tornado it has often demonstrated the ability to penetrate telephone poles ... amongst other more hardened materials. STRAW. You know that stuff you can literally turn to dust by simply rubbing it between your hands

I've yet to see Any evidence that what is shown exiting the opposing side is in Fact the Actual nose of said aircraft. While it May appear as such, I've yet to see that it is in Fact that, the nose cone.

As for "it flew right through the building", there were Many individual comments made by various newscasters that day which were later recanted or retracted altogether. It was a a series of events, that left Many grasping for Appropriate descriptive terms and or means to convey what they were seeing unfold before their very eyes.

I'm sorry, but it was effort enough to endure the first pass. I'm open to most Any potential theory or evidence thereof, for what Actually took place that fateful day. But, in my opinion, the claims put forth in September Clues is about as far removed from the realm of possible as could be fathomed.
