I find your post very interesting. I cannot pretend to know all the details you refer to though I smell a rat--ie., I do NOT trust the official explanation of things. But I am very interested in your also pointing out the 'debnkers' tactics here, and I thought I would link this post/thread to a good video I saw yesterday which shows how disinformation works. And if we could apply it to this question we may not get manipulated away from the essentials. I recommend the watching of this video anyway:
THE TOP FOUR TACTICS OF DISINFORMATION
"Type 1: Provoke people with emotional and personal attacks
Disinformants seek to hijack the main topic and get people to divert their energies in to defending themselves or countering threats to their egoic identity.
Type 2: Introduce irrelevant & dead-end confusion
Whenever possible, the disinformant will introduce new facts or clues designed to conflict with opponent presentations — as useful tools to neutralize sensitive issues or impede resolution to establishing the whole truth.
Type 3: Character assassination by association
Disinformation tactic number three associates opponents with unpopular titles such as “kooks”, “radical right-wing”, “loony left-wing”, “terrorists”, “conspiracy buffs”, “radicals”, “militia”, “racists”, “religious fanatics”, “tin-hat wearers”, “sexual deviants”, “crazed lone wolf” and so forth.
Type 4: Argue the details of a different or less important subject.
The fourth and final tactic of disinformation in this article facilitates perpetual application of disinformation even when major truths fail to be suppressed and become well known (such as Iraq WMD’s, The USS Liberty false flag attack, The Lavon affair, etc). Disinformants simply ignore the massive glaring truth in question and try to shift the focus on to a lesser topic or an alternative subject altogether, in an effort to draw attention away from the critical truth which is out in the open."

We NEED a copy of the FOIA request information - who can get it?
Although I agree with P4T (pilotsfor911truth.org...), on something as big as this I won't accept someone's blogpost or "word" about the flight data until I know for sure it came from the U.S. Government and is being read by people who know about this type of information.

My response is pretty simple. Since P4T have been proved to spend large amounts of time simply making stuff up, I wouldn't trust any of their evidence one iota.
* The initial GPS latitude/longitude data does not match gate D26 at Dulles from where the plane allegedly departed.
* The initial GPS type data showed the ground position as 3,000 feet off. It is American Airlines policy for every flight to manually enter the lat/long. This reading showed during the pre-flight checks so the plane would never have been allowed to take off.
Using the assigned social media accounts we can automate the posting of content that is relevant to the persona. In this case there are specific social media strategy website RSS feeds we can subscribe to and then repost content on twitter with the appropriate hashtags.
In fact using hashtags and gaming some location based check-in services we can make it appear as if a persona was actually at a conference and introduce himself/herself to key individuals as part of the exercise, as one example. There are a variety of social media tricks we can use to add a level of realness to all fictitious personas

It's actually in binary and needs an American Airlines template to read - although according to P4T the data didn't match AA, or even a Boeing data template. The original data is also password protected, and I don't have the password (might just be a P4T password, I'm not a member).

Auto GPS positioning of the aircraft (lazy pilots dream) or auto GPS alignment? We hat that back in 1996, customer option of course.
AUTO-ALIGNMENT AND GPS
Military aircraft were equipped with GPS (Global Positioning Systems) long before GPS was offered for Commercial use. When equipped, they can auto-align the Inertial Reference System. N644AA (American Airlines Flight 77) was not equipped with a GPS. However, when one looks through the data, it shows a GPS as "OPERational"(12) and an airborne auto-alignment. How can a GPS be "OPER" if the data is reported to come from an aircraft which doesn't have a GPS? The data shows that the Lat/Long plots auto-aligned with Radar plots in flight after departure(9). American Airlines aircraft do not have the capability of in flight alignment nor would such an aircraft depart with such a large error and an IRS as it's primary source for navigation. It is impossible for an IRS equipped American Airlines jet to give accurate position information if the system was not aligned at the gate. The aircraft needs to be stationary for proper alignment or else the navigational device will have large errors and could perhaps be fatal(10). According to American Airlines 757/767 Captain Ralph Kolstad who has actual flight time in N644AA, if the Inertial Reference System (IRS) is lost in flight (or shows large errors), an emergency has to be declared. The aircraft is required to sit stationary for more than 10 minutes in order obtain a full alignment of the Inertial Reference System prior to every flight, according to and as required by American Airlines 757/767 Operating Manual(11). How can an auto-align occur airborne if American Airlines aircraft do not have this capability nor a GPS? This is more evidence demonstrating the data did not come from an American Airlines jet.

Zero hours.
However i do have 9200 hours flying the B737, 757 and 767 + a few WW2 aircrafts.
I've seen enough lies from P4T that anything coming from them ends up in the trash bin.
Originally posted by rjh01aYes, and a C46 is a Military version of the DC-3. So it seems you corroborate the OP that the Military did have Auto-Align capability.

Wrong again, the C46 is a Curtiss-Wright aircraft.
