Originally posted by beefeaterThis article by a British aeronautical engineer, explains how the planes were fitted with a device to allow them to be flown remotley, this is apparently a saftey system fitted to planes incase of hyjackings or other circumstances where a plane would need to be remotley flown to saftey. This system was hajacked and the planes were flown remotley into the towers is the theory.
He goes on to explain that this device when in use would leave a blank voice recording on the CVR, which is apparently the case for the recovered black boxes.
"We can only conclude that the hijack recovery capability could easily have been implemented as a secret project well prior to September 11; but also that if it had not been built as a standard capability, it could also have been uploaded as a simple software upgrade for specific mission requirements."
QRS-11 gyrochip
Between 2000 and 2003, Boeing exported commercial jets with a QRS-11 gyrochip in the instrument flight boxes, even though the chip was classified by the State Department as an export-restricted defense item because it can be used to stabilize and steer guided missiles.
Are Boeing fitting their aircraft with illegal devices that could enable terrorists to remotely hijack airliners and crash them into high profile targets? In light of what happened on 9/11, Boeing's blanket denial that this practice has taken place is both highly suspicious and a threat to national security . . .
According to the Seattle Times, "The QRS-11 chip, made by a unit of BEI Technologies in Concord, Calif., is just over 1-½ inches in diameter and weighs about 2 ounces. It sells for between $1,000 and $2,000. Described as "a gyro on a chip," it is used to help control the flight of missiles and aircraft." . . .
Recent newspaper reports discussing these devices and the policy to have them in all airliners within three years assure us that they would prevent another 9/11 style outrage - but because any such system is vulnerable to hacking allied with the fact that pilots have no way of overriding the autopilot, not even with secure access codes, this only increases the chances of another 9/11 style attack.
A comprehensive investigation on behalf of those who have the authority and resources to perform it needs to be mandated immediately into whether devices that completely remove control of a plane from the pilot and that have illegally been installed in many existing aircraft are a fundamental danger to national security.

Or no planes just explosives to knock out the core beams.

No such system have ever existed on any comercial airliner, does not exist at present, and will not exist in near future.

I've flown Boeings and Airbusses for nearly 39 years, if and when i need help from conspiracy theorists to do my job i'll let you know.
The pilot of a modified Tornado fighter plane assumed remote control of a BAC 1-11 airliner carrying members of the press, including New Scientist, and flying at an altitude of 4500 metres (15000 feet).

JUST TO PROVE THAT YOU MIGHT KNOW HOW TO FLY PLANES BUT KNOW NOTHING ABOUT THE REMOTE SYSTEMS IN DEVELOPMENT. TO PROVE YOU WRONG HERE IS THE INFORMATION ON THE BRITISH SYSTEM FOR TAKING OVER PLANES BY REMOTE CONTROL.

So what do you not believe about the British system that you need more evidence? What is it going to take to get your closed mind opened to facts and evidence ?
Originally posted by SickSoul
Prove that it was done on Boeings, not just a test but a full scale project that enables someone to take control of the aircraft and actually fly it
without the approval of the flightcrew.

Come on Ultima you can do better than that!
Originally posted by ULTIMA1Does the fighter take remote control of the airliner, YES or NO?
Originally posted by SickSoul
Yes, but i want you to prove that it has ever been done on a Boeing! Not just being in the neighbour aircraft but from several thousends of miles away as you guys claimes!
In addition to cutting the number of pilots risked in military operations, the remote control system could one day also be used to auto-land hijacked planes.

The thing is: You conspiracy nutters are claiming that there's some hidden microchip in the plane that i'm flying for a living that enables uncle sam (or usama for that matter) to fly it without my knowledge as the commander.
