Hay, I've watched National Security Alert and I'm quite interested in that POS. But, I'm more interested in "Operational Accountability". How's that going and why has there been no further information about that?

I ran to the outside (from in between the wings) and got into a position where I could see it. (...) if the Air Force memorial had been built, the airplane would have ran into it.

The silly analogy to driving a car through a Jiffy Lube? Comedy gold, thanks as always to our intrepid narrator, and agent provocateur of PfT.....the Rob Balsamo. Still pushing the same lies. The "Revolution Radio" interview is also very old news.....and, based on MY experiences in a simulator....a total crock of [snip].
The guys (was it at America West? I forget) that claimed they had to "slow down to approach speeds" to hit the WTC Towers, that is ridiculous. I'd go as far as to say the pilot (sim instructor) being interviewed in the audio clip is lying, as a shill for the PfT crowd.
Dan : "After their Sim training period I said 'Hey, let's try something. Let's see if we can hit these buildings...uh..like we saw happen. We used a 737, a smaller much more manouevreable airplane. So, I set it up for these pilots and keep in mind these pilots have many years experience..They all took turns trying to hit the buildings AND THEY COULDN'T DO IT UNLESS THEY SLOWED DOWN TO ALMOST LANDING SPEEDS. THEY COULD NOT HIT THOSE BUILDINGS. AT HIGH SPEEDS THEY COULDN'T DO IT"
Interviewer: " I guess they were getting into 'Dutch Roll' and everything, right?" Dan : " That's right, that's EXACTLY WHAT WAS HAPPENING"
A Dutch TV documentary show called "Zembla" in 2006 did an hour's worth about the Pentagon in particular, and the many silly "conspiracy" claims, such as that appallingly bad piece of junk "Loose Change". Two of the show's segments from YouTube, below. (In Dutch, with English subtitles). This Part opens with clips from "Loose Change", and narrator Dylan Avery's voice, telling lies and exaggerating as usual....saying it was a "330° turn at 530 miles per hour"... It was NOT at that airspeed, during the turn. He lies a lot more, in his lousy film.
The Dutch simulation test was performed prior to the release of the Flight Data Recorder information, so clearly the Dutch researchers did not have any scientific data to examine the maneuver, nor implement the maneuver properly. Their main focus was to debunk claims made that the turning maneuver was impossible, which we agree is possible according to the data now released. However, other aspects of the flight path are impossible (See "9/11: Attack On The Pentagon")

As usual, you are confused. All sharp noises are not explosions and explosions from various sources in a fire and collapse are not demolitions. Explosives needed to clear each floor in less than 200 milliseconds would certainly have been noticed. Thermite can't do it. Given that, the collapse must have been gravitationally driven.

pteridine - a plane hitting one part of the building does not, can not, will not - loosen a bolt or break a weld two levels down and on the opposite side of the building.
It was a simplification for the laymen amongst us.
Make that an out of control car where steering left pushes you to the right?
LOCKOUT SYSTEM
‘ At high speed, OUTBOARD ailerons are LOCKED
Unlike Rob Balsamo and his highly qualified assemblage of "liars"....
......they actually recorded their attempts at hitting the Pentagon using the OCT narrative.
Is "Dutch Roll" real or not?
While we're at it are the other effects on controllability an issue or not?
Mach Tuck?
Aileron Roll?
The spoilers also supplement roll control in response to control wheel commands. In flight, only five pairs of spoilers are used. On the ground, all six spoiler panels function as ground speedbrakes.
The Control Wheels and the Speedbrake Lever send signals to the spoiler controller.
There's much more at the link above, like how a 757 simulator wasn't used, that the alleged "inexperienced pilot" in the sim wouldn't divulge just how "inexperienced" he was or how many attempts were made before they started recording his attempts, etc..

As for the columns at the WTC blasting 500 feet, everybody knows that they fell into their footprint. That's how we know it was a demo!

Hmm no, the towers did not collapse into their footprints. WTC 7 did...
In its own footprint...
We know the towers were demolished with an energy more than fire and gravity could supply, because the collapse wave did not slow as it should have done as Ke was converted to other energy such as deformation, heat, sound etc. The only way the collapse could have continued is if the resistance was removed ahead of the collapse wave. The towers were too tall to 'implode'.
We know WTC 7 was a controlled 'implosion' demolition, because that is the only way you can make a building collapse mostly into its own footprint.

Tell me. Why could no one hear these blasts that were able to launch large parts of the tower 500 feet away? Parabolic motion supported by the height and pressure of the debris is a far more logical explanation.

People did hear blasts, don't lie.
Even before the planes hit, so you can't blame this on the fires...
Now can you quit with the distracting nonsense, and attempt to explain the physics problems I raise?

I love the way you always show photos where about half the collapsed building can be seen and claim they prove your point about the "footprint". And then go quiet when asked for something a bit more conclusive.
No offence, but since you're - in the common parlance - constantly getting your arse handed to you over basic physics questions on here, you're not really my go-to guy on this. And you're not really anyone else's either are you? Given how thoroughly the "self-evident obvious physics Truth" is failing to resonate with anybody whatsoever.
4a. Two colliding objects will exert equal forces upon each other even if their mass is significantly different.
5b. Most collisions tend to be partially to completely elastic.
5f. Most collisions are not inelastic because the collision forces cause energy of motion to be transformed into sound, light and thermal energy (to name a few).
14. Suppose that you're driving down the highway and a moth crashes into the windshield of your car. Which undergoes the greater force?
a. the moth
b. your car
c. both the same
