BTW, prove to me the planes were going over 500mph.
Oh i know the basics, i have a background in aviation. I was a crew chief in the Air Force.
Well lets look at Flight 77.
en.wikipedia.org...
As the aircraft hurtled towards the Pentagon at 530 miles per hour,[3] it clipped several street lampposts .
And some follow up information.
(1) Now what kind of a hijacker would bother to reset his altimeter EXACTLY at FL180? What for? He's going to crash!
(2) Where did that hijacker get the field barometric pressure for Reagan International that he set on his altimeter? He didn't get it from ATC. And how did he get the CURRENT field barometric pressure (30.24) which would have been only several minutes old?
(3) Why did the hijacker reset the copilots altimeter within one second of setting his and WHY? And HOW? That’s a pretty long reach!
(4) How did the hijacker get so proficient in the use of the autopilot? From a book?
(5) And about that final line up with the Pentagon. After the 270 degree turn descending turn. Within 1 degree? That’s absolutely amazing!

Hitting the Pentagon with a 757 is easy compared to that, believe me. Assuming murderous and suicidal intent, and enough planning and preparation. So don't insult my intelligence, as an experienced pilot, by saying it 'can't be done'. I KNOW it can be done. I could do it, were I so inclined, so could most pilots - if so inclined.

John, I hate to disappoint you and your new found hologram theory but I have a good friend who lives in NY and worked for the port authority that day and was one block from the buildings when they collapsed. They were real planes and some of the engines parts were found on the ground in bad shape. My friend lost many very good friends that day, He still today is traumatized from the crap he seen that day so you and others do this nation a dis-service by making these ridiculous claims about the planes hitting the trade center. That we do know did happen. We know that the whole trade center complex sat on the same foundation. When the two towers collapsed it blew out most of the supports for building 7 and thats why it came down.
I believe the op made this post right after some clown made a post about hydrogen bombs taking down the towers. That by far is the most ridiculous post I have seen yet and yes I'm also tired of crap like that discrediting ATS. Hey thats sounds just like your trees on the moon theory!!!!!
Why do you assume, or how do you know that Hani Hanjour re-set the altimeter, and used the autopilot? Where is your evidence for any of this?
The only known communications from the aircraft following the hijack were from Renee May, the flight attendant who called her mother, and from Nancy Olsen who called her husband, US Solicitor General Theodore Olson, twice. None of these conversations to my knowledge made any reference to re-setting altimeters or to the hijacking pilot being concerned with barometric pressures.
I am JAA-PPL qualified by the way, with >100 hours in the logbook, so obviously don't buy into any uninformed cr*p about 'a plane can't do that' or 'you can't pilot a plane into a building under cockpit control'. Of course you can.

I heard that planes had crashed into the Twin Towers. I thought it was very bad that so many civilians had been killed. But afterwards I was told it was America's own government that had arranged the attack." How could that have happened? "Money can make wonders." But why would America have wanted to do such a thing? "There is a strong lobby in the USA that opposes President Bush. He wanted to attack Afghanistan and Iraq. He had to justify that to his own people.
Shakeel Ahmad Bhat is the product of poverty, lack of opportunity and state brutality. Islam is to him a way of life. He is illiterate and his only source of news is the street. Surrounded by other people who lack knowledge of the outside world, is it any surprise that he believes barmy conspiracy theories about the attacks of 9/11?

I know that somethings are a bit fishy about 911 and events surrounding it but come on! some of the claims that people make a just so stupid, the worst was the no planes theory, how could you have a hologram in broad daylight!
Thanks for the post open mind. Although I know it seems far fetched but the fact is that there were no planes crashed on 911 either into the WTC or the Pentagon or the field in Shanksville.
It was a PsyOp. An illusion. Like something you would see in Las Vegas but on a much larger scale.
Holographs, while seeming not possible to the average guy, are in fact, possible, real, and used to make people believe that 2 Boeing 767's crashed into the WTC.
That people don't believe holographs exist and in fact believe that 2 airliners crashed into the World Trade Center is a measure of their absolute and unqualified success.
Your question of how holographs could be projected in broad daylight is a good one. I don't know how it is accomplished but then I am not qualified in that field and all I know is that the results have been spectacular.
Last Thursday night I had dinner with a scientist friend of mine who told me that holographs can not only project an image, but heat and sound as well.
So while you propose the idea that holographs and the no planes theory is 'stupid' there are those that not only know it was real but know exactly how it was technically possible.
Many thanks for your thread.

Thanks for the post bovrcher. You can download the Flight Data Recorder tabular data from American Airlines Flight #77 anywhere on the web
The Flight Data Recorder records 156 channels of information at the rate of 8 times per second. It is from this data that we know when and how Hani reset his altimeter and how and when and to what mode the aujtopilot was set.
But the questions is not whether he reset it our not. The question is where did he get the information? ...and how would he know the tower frequency anyway?
Any why did he set the copilots altimeter first?
You can download the FDR tabular data yourself but then, of course, you will have to learn how to read it.
Let me respectfully suggest that 100 hours in your logbook and a JAA-PPL qualification wouldn't allow you to speculate on the price of bubble-gum in China
Let me respectfully insult your experience then. 100 hours is not 'experienced'. 500 hours is not 'experienced'. 1000 hours is not 'experienced'. 5000 hours is 'mildly experienced'. 10,000 is 'experienced'.
Thanks for the post.

You could help me out with one more thing: the speed of the aircraft in question. How, and by what precise criteria, is this known with such certainty?
You'll have a hard time debating folks here if you can't back up what you state.
These phone calls have been debunked. None were made. You need to download the Flight Data Recorder tabular data to find out how and when Hani allegedly made the altimeter changes. The information was not obtained by telephone. It was obtained by the Flight Data Recorder.
