Flying large jet aircraft is ENTIRELY different from tiny single engine props. No ammont of flight simms will prepare a pilot for slow response time and tendency to overcorrect.
To think that some guys with ZERO flight hours in a jet plane can fly and actually hit those towers, is the same as assuming that a 16 year old can play a video game and then outrun a police chase while driving an 18 wheeler at 80 miles per hour.
Other then that, NEVER in the ENTIRE HISTORY of flight, did an ENTIRE jet simply DISSAPERE after a crash over solid ground.
So was a SINGLE jet engine ever recovered from all of the crashes on 9/11?

I don’t understand. Is half the ATS readership going crazy?
Why aren’t more paying attention to what John Lear has said. He’s been repeatedly stating that while 500 mph at sea-level might be possible for a 767, at speeds above Vmo (357 knots) deafeningly loud alarm noises go off inside the cockpit making the plane un-flyable for amateur (highjacker) pilots. If people (foolishly) insist on arguing with him, they should at least address his very specific points, such as that one.
Soooo....the experts at Boeing have installed a "safety" system that, once the plane is outside it's recommended parameters, deafens the pilots and makes the plane un-flyable? Genius.
The only feature Boeing need to add to this is a 6000W halogen light that pops out of the dashboard and shines directly into the face of the pilot making sure he or she gets the message.

(etc, etc, diatribe)
Please explain to me, in five reasons, how flying (NOT operating), a large jet is so much diferant than flying a Cessna 172?
And for the record, they actually DID have time in a Level-D simulator which is highly realistic.
And this is what then?

EDIT: And please do not say they're to small for a 757. The N1 'Fan', would of been smashed off in the explosion as would many parts of the engines.
Let's not forget.
The Hologram Challenge:
Nice one IgnoranceIsntBlisss.
My only argument was that, using a standard physics model, I would posit that any 767 could likely sustain the speeds we saw on 9/11, at least for a short time, without compromising the structural integrity.
You would think step one in a theory about how a 767 did not hit the WTC, would be to figure out how to explain the wreckage of the 767 that actually hit the WTC.
Ok have you forgot that 9/11 was an inside job and that there were explosives in the building, completely capable of destroying the engines and everything else.
Law of Conservation of Matter
Matter can not be created or destroyed, energy can only be transferred.
Now this is all nice scientific fact but then where did the engines go? Well the explosives will have vaporized what was left of the engines.
Remember that even though something is vaporized that does not mean they suddenly disappeared. They are still there on the wreckage.
Check for residue of titanium on wreckage that is found to be around the same floor of the plane crash.

Back on topic, I've flown plenty of jets perfectly fine in Flight sims at whatever speed you're talking about. Hey, it's as close to actually flying one any of us will get.
