SPreston, I see that you are using CIT's FANTASY C-130 LOOPv3. Would you care to point out at which point along the flight path the "Decoy-Jet" flew from left to right on a northbound heading, as described by the pilot, in front of the C-130?
Well we do not know the exact flight paths of the C-130 or the decoy aircraft. We know the decoy aircraft approached from the west, flew across O'Brien's flight path left to right,
"We were flying westbound" - RADES C-130 is northeast bound
"First spotted at our 10 o'clock" - about 2 o'clock
"About 4 miles out" - about 15 miles out
"On a northernly heading" - correct
"From our left to the right" - from our right to our nose
"45° of bank" - correct
If we go back to the points where the OFFICIAL Flight 77 does cross the RADES C-130 flight path left to right, then the OFFICIAL Flight 77 aircraft would be behind O'Brien and not in front of him as he stated.
"We were flying westbound" - RADES C-130 is northeast bound
"First spotted at our 10 o'clock" - about 2 o'clock
"About 4 miles out" - about 15 miles out
"On a northernly heading" - correct
"From our left to the right" - from our right to our nose
"45° of bank" - correct
So in YOUR 9-11 Pentagon OFFICIAL STORY, YOUR suspicious RADES data has Flight 77 crossing twice in front of the RADES C-130; once right to left and once left to right and both times within five miles distance apart?

You claimed: "Nah. Common sense and ordinary physics leads directly to the conclusion that five 237 pound heavy gauge aluminum light poles struck at 535 mph would have ripped the wings off the aircraft, spilling fuel all over the grass and crashing the aircraft on the lawn, because it would still have been descending at the light poles. That did not happen did it?"
Your sense may think that would happen, but ordinary physics says differently. Similar aircraft cut through the steel columns of the WTC and would easily have knocked over breakaway aluminum light poles at 500+ mph without slowing down.

The white smoke is very reminiscent of detcord.
Look at this video, then watch it frame by frame.

Detcord stretched tight then detonated will form the characteristic swirly cloud. The smoke disappears almost instantly. No evidence.

Recently we all read about and watched the Pentagon deception.
Two things are missing, the method of the explosion, and the whereabouts of the real flight 77.
While the concept of a photoshopped image is appealing in it's simplicity, it really does not add to the explanation, and is difficult to substantiate. I've been working with photoshop for over 17 years, photstyler before that, and I'm afraid I don't see anything in the images that "proves" they were altered.
However, detcord stretched over great lengths ALWAYS makes an instantaneous curly white smoke trace and leaves no residue. I'm going to do an analysis of the distances and shutter speed of the security cameras and see if it would be possible to capture just some of the detcord explosion rather than all.

I mean, why would you do such a bad photoshop as the "actual security video" when it is entirely possible to make a really convincing one like the one you posted showing a full size jet?
The Pentagon Video Frames
In early 2002, five frames from a Pentagon parking lot security camera overlooking the impacted west wall were released. The first frame shows what appears to be a small aircraft obscured by a post in the foreground, and a vapor trail behind it. The second frame shows the vapor trail and a bright white explosion.
The video frames fueled theories that the Pentagon was hit by a small attack drone rather than a large jetliner. Curiously, few asked what end the people who released the images were seeking to advance, and whether the images were edited. The perpetrators of this fraud appear to have exploited several subconscious mechanisms to gain uncritical acceptance of the images' authenticity.
The video frames can easily be seen as evidence that a 757 did not hit the Pentagon, since the apparent plane is too small, there is a vapor trail suggesting a missile, and the explosion sees to white to be a jet-fuel fireball. People embracing the no-Boeing theory for other reasons, such as the lack of obvious debris in post-crash photographs, are inclined to uncritically embrace the video frames as corroborating evidence.
The hiding of the apparent attack plane in the video makes it seem genuine. People who suspect the motives of the video's source will nonetheless easily overlook this ploy.
Even if the video frames looked real they would be of almost no value as evidence, given their source. But they show signs of forgery.

title: Evidence the Images Were Edited
authors: 911research.wtc7.net
There are many peculiar features of the video images. Some have possible explanations, such as the red glow in front of the helicopter control tower being the result of ionized air from the explosion. We note three features that appear to have no explanation other than that the images were fabricated. In the following we refer to the individual frames using the captions in the cropped set: plane, impact, #2 impact, #3 impact, and #4 impact.
impact has an elevated brightness throughout the image, not just in areas that would be illuminated by the explosion.
impact has peculiar patches of color on the pavement.
#2 explosion shows a roughly conical explosion whose vertical axis lies deep within the building.
#3-#5 explosion show sunlight-illuminated lawn that should be darkened by shadows from the explosion.

Just so we're clear about that, I want you to show everyone here any post I have made on any forum in which I have said that the security camera video shows anything hitting the Pentagon.

Hey, SPreston... it looks like we've got another member for the truth movement...
In this thread, jthomas refuses to endorse the security camera images.
I wonder how many other confused government story believers will jump on board with jthomas and doubt the authenticity of the security camera images???
He's really opened up a can of worms with this latest statement of his.

If you can't do that, then you will issue a public retraction right here, correct? What's that, you can't? C'mon, be a sport, just try.
In fact, as we rational people have said for years, one cannot conclude by looking at the security camera video that anything hit the Pentagon.
