Are you trying to be funny or sarcastic? i am not sure, but I wont take it personally.
Yeah of course planes can fly close to the ground, that I dont doubt.....I do doubt the skill and maneuvering of the terrorists. How many times are we going to have to point out this:
] Staff members characterized Mr. Hanjour as polite, meek and very quiet. But most of all, the former employee said, they considered him a very bad pilot. "I'm still to this day amazed that he could have flown into the Pentagon," the former employee said. "He could not fly at all." [New York Times]

It must be incredibly easy to hijack a plane, navigate it a few hundred miles and crash it into a building with precision, and the aeronautical engineer that wrote the article must be out of his mind.....is that what we are coming to?

If the twin towers fell according to the "logic" your side maintains, they would have fallen on the order of the structures in the photos at the following site. In at least a couple, those look as it would look if controlled demolitions only blew at the base:
As for commercial jetliners flying at high speed at sea level, apparently your side has not a clue that atmospheric conditions play havoc on weight and mass at sea level. The heavier the mass the more havoc at high speeds. I already knew the aerodyamics of flight, but I confirmed what I already knew with actual professional commercial jetliner pilots before I started posting to these forums.

Wow! I don't know all those structures were built with exactly the same support engineering that went into the towers. They were not? Well I guess you need to follow your own advice..

You have told us once again you know nothing concerning building construction, physics and quantum mechanics. You fall back on some of the lamest excuses I have had the misfortune to read in this forum. You can stay in self-denial all you wish. That is your entitled right to do so.
Any alleged planes, passengers, and other contents of planes would definitely have been found, IF the buildings had actually "swallowed" entire planes as touted by the "official" reports. No doubt about that whatsoever.
On that, I am certain beyond a reasonable doubt.

No you are wrong my friend for mine is based on 43 volumes of facts and yours is only a opinion that it was all faked.
Some difference there...

Well since you are going to say that, then I challenge you to show me ANY proof that supports the official story is correct. GO ahead we are all waiting.
If you can sit there and say that there is no proof supporing the Truthers side of the story, then you are the one that is ignoring the evidence. If you want us to begin to start compiling the evidence then lets start a thread....In fact I am going to do that right now...lets have at it

We seemed to spend a while here trying to drift off into a world where language skills impaired a pilot's ability to control an aircraft which is an exceeedingly weak point to push from the 'dark' side of this debate and hang your hopes on. I haven't seen any real evidence other than anecdotal that goes against the 'official' version of what happened.
Is there a 'possibility of flying heavy aircraft with training'?
I hope so.

Actually, it is a very strong point as anyone trying to communicate with someone speaking another language well knows. There will be no effective communication, but there will be the metaphorical meeting at the Tower of Babel. At least, until one or both begin to take foreign language instructions from a dual language speaking and writing instructor.
Where there is no effective communication, there is no effective training. That is reality not illusion.

Surely you can't claim they had no command of english at all. It's documented that they could read, write and speak english unless that's a coverup too. They weren't perfect at it but did they need to be?
They had the training and took from it only what they needed perhaps as they weren't planning on making a career of it - well maybe just a short, spectacular career.
Boston Center knew of a problem on the flight in part because just before
8:25 the hijackers had attempted to communicate with the passengers. The
microphone was keyed, and immediately one of the hijackers said, “Nobody
move. Everything will be okay. If you try to make any moves, you’ll endanger
yourself and the airplane. Just stay quiet.
At 8:38, Ong told Gonzalez that the plane was flying erratically again.
Around this time Sweeney toldWoodward that the hijackers were Middle Easterners,
naming three of their seat numbers. One spoke very little English and
one spoke excellent English.The hijackers had gained entry to the cockpit, and
she did not know how.The aircraft was in a rapid descent.35
At the same time, Boston Center realized that a message transmitted just before 8:25 by the
hijacker pilot of American 11 included the phrase,“We have some planes.”65
At 9:32, a hijacker, probably Jarrah, made or attempted to make the following
announcement to the passengers of Flight 93:“Ladies and Gentlemen:Here
the captain, please sit down keep remaining sitting.We have a bomb on board.
So, sit.” The flight data recorder (also recovered) indicates that Jarrah then
instructed the plane’s autopilot to turn the aircraft around and head east.75
