So this fast jet struck the building with all this KE that made the wings into these deadly knives, slicing the steel in a 35 degree wedge from the fuselage, out.
Other than the damage evidence, you might have had something there (except of course, wings don't do that in the real world).
Aren't you some sort of photography, structural engineer, construction expert? Shouldn't you be looking at the evidence instead of throwing a fit?

Why don't you want to discuss the direction of the damage pray tell.
If you can't use the backspace button to read the multiple references I've made about those photographer's work, you'll need to figure out yourself why I bring them up.edit on 21-3-2011 by Yankee451 because: (no reason given)

I can see the wing shredding, but it is still a good deal of mass striking another mass. It won't disintegrate in the real world. That may happen in your brain, but not in real life.
Also, the plane didn't slow down enough from the initial impact to cause a noticeable difference in kinetic energy on the wing tips. The only major difference would be the thickness of the wings at the tips and where they would impart their force.
Also, your picture assumes that the plane is hitting the building perfectly horizontal and perfectly perpendicular to the tower wall. That is almost impossible to be true.edit on 21-3-2011 by Varemia because: Made my last sentence make sense
The reason I called you Jim was the simple fact another thing you have in common with him is when someone post some information or links that show YOU are wrong in common with he who shall not be named you dont reply strange dont you think?
And here's my apology. Weedwhacker, Firepilot, Aloysius, SoylentGreen, Stars15 and everyone else who I abused with my belligerence showed remarkable restraint in their dealings with me. I was a boorish, childish, hypocritical heel. Thank you for your patience and for the lessons in contrail science, not to mention social grace. Please accept my sincere apology for my behavior. I also apologize to any laypeople out there...don't do as I do; check your facts before making an a@@ out of yourself. Yankee451
I asked him the question of how a little fleck of paint could damage the Shuttle window he would not give an answer he like you claims that the aircraft could not go through the steel just showing like you a total lack of understanding of the process and energy involved. He wouldn't answer the question because it would show he was wrong!!!
So come on give me a link to the Tina etc stuff and we can discuss that Yankee451.

Don't suppose you could name the NIST engineers who went up to the impact zone and examined the damage? Or any other engineer?

Well that's a fair question, isn't it? Can you name the engineers that did the same for all the other explanations the NIST, MIT and Bazant, et al used for the rest of their claims?

No, I cannot. However, I am not the one that is trying to prove some sort of cockamamie conspiracy by comparing the Naudet video to the NIST report. I've always known that the best that NIST would be able to do is make an educated guess.

Jet fuel exploded... look at any gas explosion on youtube. It's loud. The WTC explosions were caught on tape as loud after the planes hit.
Jet fuel is a liquid, and the gas of it is what combusts. Liquid likes to travel. There were elevator shafts, one that went the full length of the tower. Liquid goes down, blows out various floors with the combustion, and eventually hits the basement after a couple seconds. (given free-fall and not knowing the position of the elevators, it probably took around 7 seconds to completely finish exploding inside the tower.)
It's really not hard to imagine that some booms were heard when you remember what was inside the planes.edit on 20-3-2011 by Varemia because: added parenthesis

Also
Fuel explosion could have caused damage
Fire could have caused damage
I think the air fuel explosion would do almost nothing to structural steel besides raise the surface temperature temporarily. The force would not be sufficiently concentrated to bend steel strong enough to support another 29 stories of the south tower. It would blow people and furniture around and set things on fire but fuel and vapor diffused through the air would be relatively weak against one inch thick steel.
And if the steel is that strong how could the fire have weakened it in LESS THAN ONE HOUR?
So why doesn't EVERYBODY want to know the tons of steel that were on every level of the towers?
Why are we arguing year after year and not demanding information that simple? Is it that the people that have chosen to believe the Official Conspiracy Theory don't want to know? And all of the EXPERTS would look silly asking after NINE YEARS of not mentioning it?
I don't see it discussed on the AE911Truth website. Whose side are they on?
