I never said at any time that I had experience with flying large transport aircraft in low level high speed flight. Do you know anyone who has?

Yes the article mentioned "lift" a few times..
But nothing in relation to the lift which would have been created under those conditions..
I actually got the feeling they deliberately avoided the issue..
85 times the word lift is mention and that's counting only half way through the article. Quite obviously you didn't even read it as I said earlier..... I'm not surprised at all.
I see you want information delivered to your doorstep on a silver platter. The refusal to read quality material that addresses most of the issues under discussion and the ability to use critical thinking skills are traits not found in most truthers. That's why they are truthers.
Well, you admit there is no one you know with experience of flying a large transport aircraft at high speed and low level, so therefore it can't be done. Is that your argument?

I have flown large aircraft at low altitude and high speed, what is the question?

Please point out where in the article that it mentions lift associated with plane under the known conditions..
I didn't say it can't be done..
I just question those that say it's easy although they have no experience in that situation..
You really need to stop this twisting of words...
BTW, you have a poster who has large aircraft, high speed, low level experience. Ask his opinion?

[Like this? Okay , I flew in the US Air Force as a rated pilot, grade 03 Regular Air Force, for receiving HQ check out in B-52 at Carswell AFB. Total 2000 + hours over 600 combat missions DFC 1 OLC, and AM 12 OLC.
Mission profile in B-52 included high speed low level , about 300 feet off the deck was required for qualification, we were free to go as low as conditions and skill level would torlerate. Radar altimeter mounted on the bottm side of fuselage indicated exact distance to the ground directly under the aircraft. At just under 200 feet cattle would run off to the side as we passed by. At 100 feet cattle would run in the direction we were flying before we past over them.
I am saying this to indicate high speed flight at low level in a large airplane produces a noticeable increase in air pressure on the ground beneath the aircraft. The pressure is noticable but in no way interferes with controlling the aircraft, slight forward pressure is all that is required to push lower and in the case under consideration make contact with the ground.
I hope this helps all interested understand that the awful events of 9-11 would be well within the capablity of a novice operator.
My knowledge of the folks who are the dedicated members of the FAA and the NTSB leads me to conclude we can rely on the crash results recovered from the on board recorder.]
Go ahead whatwasthat...... You do need to put quote within brackets like this [/XXXX] after the first set of comments, so as to separate them from you. Else, just include the last [/xxxx] quote inside the brackets prior to your comments and that will accomplish the same thing to separate the previous comments from yours..edit on 16-3-2011 by Reheat because: (no reason given)

[High speed doesn't say much..
Can you give an actual speed please.??]
[Your correct the word speed with regard to airplanes does not mean anything by itself.
For all the ATS reader who may not be aircraft pilots why don't you review for them the differences among the terms, indicated air speed , true air speed, limiting mach number and limiting indicated air speed. Most useful convesational number would be speed accoss the ground to use a begining bases.
I would also be helpful to all the ATS readers for you to review to the specs of the B-52 and the airline lost that day, pay attention to the apect ratio of the wing so you can take into consideration the forces envolved are not linearly
comparable as you seem to want to infer
Among all the terms uses in aviation I have never used your term " actual speed " , I admit I have not kept current.
I am begining to see that " actual speed " is a polemics term used to inject some convoluted argument into and otherwise technical conversation.
To be sure there are many areas to look for conspiracies in the events of that awful day, I suggest you focus your energy on those who could have stopped the events if the had taken action to interupt the hijackers on the ground. ]

Who? P4911T??

yet again you twist my meaning and words... I didn't point to a specific website, or say it couldn't be done, I said it's a moot point because there's no evidence of an airplane.
Concerning your Texas Sharpshooter LABEL - the explosion went off precisely and only where it went off... so it's an a posteriori argument (of an explosion, not an airplane mind you) so yet again a moot point.
(Yes, I recognize I brought it up, based on the idea that we were arguing alleged flight aspects, not because it;s a valid argument)

That has a name which begins with a B and ends with a T. It indeed makes the argument moot unless you also accuse those folks of lying, as well. That's just the beginning of all of the people who you have to accuse of lying, there's several hundred more.......
