If you are not claiming that the 9/11 Boeing 757's and 767's were modified or substituted then the inescapable conclusion is that they did what they did.

I have never said I had any aviation qualifications
but that doesn't preclude me from pointing out that if you claim a particular 9/11 aircraft could not have performed in a particular way,
while at the same time saying you have never claimed there was any modification or substitution, then there is obviously a logical hole.

It appears the same source thinks a 747SP is a turboprop.
The tail fell off a turboprop airliner because the elevator control rods were made out of aluminum instead of steel.

The tail fell off a turboprop airliner because the elevator control rods were made out of aluminum instead of steel. When one of the rods failed, the elevator was loose and began to flutter, causing excessive loads on the horizontal stabilizer, which then broke off.
I also mention the takeoff crash of the UAL DC-8 freighter, due to full nose up stab trim, in my Editorial on CRM/CLR.

You have cut the ground from beneath your own feet by admitting " I'm not claiming they were modified or substituted ".
What else is left then but that the 9/11 flights were undertaken by the original Boeing 757's and 767's ?
You are trying to inject life into a dead horse by reference to a plane exceeding manufacturers guidelines but the hi-jackers were obviously not concerned with what it said on the tin.

No, he is talking about two different Incidents in that paragraph then linking over to a new page:

Please show us the link to the "tail fell off a turboprop airliner because the elevator control rods were made out of aluminum"
Is he saying a DC-8 is a "turboprop airliner"?
He would be wrong there as well.
Thanks for providing the link though, even mods make mistakes from time to time.
Pleasure is mine.
Now can you please reference in the NTSB report where it says China 006 "exceeded the speed of sound" as your source claimed?

...and here we sit as you toot your 911 truther horn and no one cares to listen...sorry.

The 747SP above exceeded it's limits by roughly 30 knots in the above event which caused "tearing parts off and causing major structural damage/"
Let us know when you find one aircraft which has been positively identified to exceed it's limits by 150 knots, held together, and was stable/controllable. So far, the obfuscation brigade who blindly support the govt story have been failing for over 57 pages.

You just were shown an aircraft that held together after massively exceeding its limits.

I am completely baffled by your thought process. You say that you " cannot prove the aircraft were modified " but you then go on to speculate about performance.

I got 28 years of avation experience in the military and fly and teach UAVs today, but I don't count unless I'm on your side...ok I can live with that.
At this point the plane was inside clouds, preventing visual cues for orientation. The plane entered a steep dive at a high bank angle. Altitude decreased 10,000 ft (3,000 m) within only twenty seconds. The crew and passengers experienced g-forces reaching as much as 5g.
Only after breaking through the bottom of the clouds at 11,000 feet (3,400 m) could the captain orient himself and bring the plane under control, leveling out at 9,600 feet (2,900 m). They had descended 30,000 ft (9,100 m) in under two and a half minutes.
After repairs were made to correct the significant damage to the plane, it returned to service on April 25, 1985. It continued in service for nearly 12 years until it was leased to China Airlines' sister company, Mandarin Airlines, on January 1, 1997.

We'll get to the rest of your post when you find "exceeding the speed of sound" in the above NTSB report.
Although Concorde and the Tu-144 were the first aircraft to carry commercial passengers at supersonic speeds, they were not the first or only commercial airliners to break the sound barrier. On 21 August 1961, a Douglas DC-8 broke the sound barrier at Mach 1.012 or 1,240 km/h (776.2 mph) while in a controlled dive through 41,088 feet (12,510 m). The purpose of the flight was to collect data on a new leading-edge design for the wing.[15] A China Airlines 747 almost certainly broke the sound barrier in an unplanned descent from 41,000 ft (12,500 m) to 9,500 ft (2,900 m) after an in-flight upset on 19 February 1985. It also reached over 5g.[16]
