All the worse for refueling versions of 767s. I guess you are one of those who believes everything he sees as well as everything he reads, even including animated simulations!
Still pushing the "it was a 767 tanker which hit the WTC" crap
One the 767 did not exist in 2001, except for paper design. first was not sold until 2002 (Italy) with delivery in
2005 , Japan bought some too
Boeing had no end of problems with design and was late delivering them

Here's another in the apparently endless stream of mindless drivel coming from members of a group that has NOT EVEN BOTHERED TO READ WHAT I HAVE WRITTEN. Do I have to explain that I am not one of those whom you may think you and your chums have debunked before? I am the new guy on the block. You have to actually READ MY STUFF and then, if you can, explain my arguments (so we know you actually understand them) and then, if you can, explain what I have wrong. You can't do any of that if you don't even read what I've written. OK?

He's referring to the concrete in the floors.
As you said: Fail. If you can't get the basics just give it up.
. It is passing into the steel and concrete structure without displaying any signs of impact, where the wings, the engines, the fuselage and other component parts all remain intact.
Wrong. You are referring only to the post-2001 KC-767 tanker. There were military variants of the 767 in operation by 2001 and it is perfectly possible that one version was modified to do the job.
After test flights the aircraft was stored at the Victorville Airport in California in 2003, and ultimately deregistered in 2007 before scrapping.
You ignore the possibility that the plane that hit the South Tower was a commercial or military 767 that had been modified to hold extra fuel in its cargo compartment so as to create an explosion large enough to fool people that the impact and subsequent fires had caused the tower to collapse.

The Safety Board does not investigate criminal activity; in the past, once it has been established that a transportation tragedy is, in fact, a criminal act, the FBI becomes the lead federal investigative body, with the NTSB providing any requested support.

Can you cite a source for this claim? Thanks.
PS. Here is the NTSB rules on aircraft investigation.

So, the people you will want to contact is the FBI. Thanks for playing.

Oh so no one knew why THREE planes just happened to crash into THREE buildings, after it was discovered that they were HIJACKED moments before? How can it be an accident???????
Jim, The four plane crashes were NOT accidents. They did NOT acidentally fly into buildings (or ground). Is that so much for you to grasp, Jim? The NTSB gave its expertese to the FBI's criminal investigation. However, the FBI and the NTSB both already understood that these were NOT accidents, but criminal acts. Therefore the investigation was turned over to the FBI, with the NTSB offering support. The NTSB does NOT investigate criminal activity involving aircraft. It investigates ACCIDENTS. Do you know what the difference is between an accident and a criminal act?
The Wellstone plane crash was investigated as an ACCIDENT when it was not understood what caused the crash. No witnesses, or anything. It wasnt until something fishy was about the crash, when the FBI was asked to come in. The FBI was aware of the many death threats on Wellstone. However, the NTSB said possible pilot error and a bad VOR to blaim.edit on 2/5/2011 by GenRadek because: (no reason given)

So rather than taking an existing non-military airframe, they take a military one loaded with special gear?
But lets go and do some research into the matter:
Have you ever seen the E-767? Its got an airborne dish as an AWAC. Didnt see any large rotating dishes on the ones used on 9/11. Also, Japan is the ONLY user of this type of aircraft.
The KC-767s all didnt come into being until AFTER 2001 with the first frame actually built in 2005 for Japan.
The 767 AST (Airborne Surveillance Testbed) was built in 1986, and guess what? It was stored in 2003. It was scrapped in 2007. It had a pronounced hump running down the top of the fuselage. Nope, no humps on either planes that crashed.
The EC-10 MC2A was a prototype for a new AWAC replacement for the E-3 Sentry, E-8 JSTARS, and the RC-135 Rivet Joint. The E-10 wasnt designed until 2003, and built later. It (the airframe) now resides in Bahrain as a VIP transport.
So of all the military 767s out there, NONE of them could have been used on 9/11. So no, it wasnt a military 767.
