So, basically what you're saying is that you can fabricate radar data as a military man. Thanks for sharing...
What else type of radar data can you fabricate? Perhaps phantom returns?
Care to put your name on any of this?
With that said...
Have you ever worked an ASR radar with 5, 6, 10 flights in trail on approach squeezed in between two other major hubs within a 10 mile radius, and perhaps numerous hubs of the most busiest Executive Airports within 3 to 10 miles of the above mentioned?
Do you feel NY TRACON and the NTSB could be in error of more than 100 knots in a terminal area covered by multiple ASR radar and Mode C returns?
Cause that is what is needed for the government story to be plausible.

I am a truther myself and don't believe the OS.
However, this report has a fundamental flaw.
That flaw being that it is assumed by the writer
that these aircraft cannot exceed certain limitations
in design when in actuality all kinds of vehicles
including submarines have safe operating limits.
But when under stress can exceed those numbers.
And if they can exceed those numbers then for proper
testing would require a test flight to fly said model
as fast as it could go until it actually broke up and
splintered in mid-air. To my knowledge, these tests
have never been done. So to prove this report to
have merit he would have to prove at what speed
these models actually broke apart.

Were you a combat controller? I was part of XXXXX, deployed in Sep '01 and wounded a couple of months after you. I certainly look forward to hearing your input.

You can calculate the speeds rather closely by the following method:
1. Measure the width of the Twin Tower.
2. Use that measurement to measure the distance from the tower for one of the planes.
3. Measure the time spend for the plane to hit the tower from that distance.
4. Divide the distance traveled by time spent.
VOILA! You have the speed.

I just posted this message to 911Blogger thread on this topic:
Levels of Improbability,
To keep it simple, let’s say there were just two components to the question -- could the official story be true, with respect to UA175? (1) Could the airplane fly at 510 knots at that low altitude? (2) Could an inexperienced pilot hit the target unaided?
Assume such things as, a vanilla 767-200 series aircraft did impact the tower, the radar data were correct, and NTSB did the math correctly.
One component in the probability is whether the aircraft flew at the airspeed reported, call that P(A).
The other component in the probability is whether an inexperienced pilot successfully flew it into the tower, call that P(B). [This also could be called, probability that A is true, given B is true, or P(A|B), but I’m not going to use that notation]
The joint probability would be the product of these two, or P(A,B) = P(A) * P(B)
I would assign a probability to P(A) of something like 30%, or 0.3. That would be an airspeed improbability.
I would assign a probability to P(B) of something like 10%, or 0.1.
Both these would have a descriptor “improbable,” even though one is quite a bit more improbable than the other.
The joint probability would be .3 * .1 = .03 (3%). I would call that an aeronautical improbability.
Even 3% has the descriptor “improbable,” even though it probably should be called “very improbable.” I'm reserving the "impossible" word for 0% probability.

However, if we're going to play the "expertise" game...
Only a handful of architects and engineers question the NIST Report, but they have never come up with an alternative. Although at first blush it may seem impressive that these people don't believe the NIST Report, remember that there are 123,000 members of ASCE(American Society of Civil Engineers) who do not question the NIST Report. There are also 80,000 members of AIA(American Institute of Architects) who do not question the NIST Report. Although their field of expertise is not related to the construction of buildings - they don't seem to have a problem with that over at AE911truth - there are also 120,000 members of ASME(American Society of Mechanical Engineers) who do not question the NIST report. There are also 370,000 members of IEEE(Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers) who do not question the NIST report. There are also 40,000 members of AIChE(American Institute of Chemical Engineers) who do not question the NIST Report. There are also 35,000 members of AIAA (American Institute of Aeronautics and Astronautics) who do not question the NIST report. So who would you rather believe?
Yeah, I brought up the same point TWICE, and was ignored both times. People can see through their games.
