Originally posted by VicRH After seeing that one clip I am not so sure any more if those things were flown manually, the way it looks the pilot would have to be pretty damn good and very confident diving like that then leveling out for a direct hit with the building, and this is the wtc approach! I expect the pentagon approach was way more 'impressive'.

That sort of thing could overstress the aircraft and put it into an irreversible stall, could even snap in mid air. Its like a very extreme stunt with stunning precision. Its going to be a really close call when your putting a plane into a dive like that, it was rapidly losing height yet levels out so perfectly and straight on course for the building - its banking too to line up with the building. In that sort of a maneuver i think your only concern would be trying to get the nose back up! [edit on 10-6-2007 by VicRH]

But landing and just flying is completely different, landing is very difficult (I'm assuming) and honestly what the hijackers did to the wtc buildings (I don't know about the pentagon) seems I don't want to sound cocky or nothing but kinda easy. All you have to do is push the stick where you want to go.
Please correct me if I am rong
