I havent shown them you're work as of yet, but would you like me to? (honest question)
If you are right about what you say, why does practially everyone who respondes to your postings do so in such a negative way?
there seems to be more support for CGI planes (total rubbish by the way) on this site than for what you are saying(even when what you said about the concrete and steel to be missing is totally true) are they all wrong?

Except that Hani Hanjour the pilot of AA 77 took lessons at Jet Tech in Mesa Arizona in a Boeing 737
simulator. His instructor signed off "TIGHT TURNS" in his log book, no thing was listed for taxiing or
landing.....
No way will I ever believe that a guy who couldn't pilot a Cessna could land a 757 despite what that D. Bull guy claims. That D. Bull guy couldn't be more obvious if he added %#it to the end of his name.
Hanjour gained his FAA commercial pilot certificate in April 1999, getting a "satisfactory" rating from the examiner. Hanjour's bank records indicate that he travelled to Ontario, Canada in March 1999 for an unknown reason
ELS Language Center on Oakland said Hanjour reached a level of proficiency sufficient to “survive very well in the English language”. However, in January 2001, Arizona JetTech flight school managers reported him to the FAA at least five times because his English was inadequate for the commercial pilot’s certificate he had already obtained. It took him five hours to complete an oral exam meant to last just two hours, said Peggy Chevrette. Hanjour failed UA English classes with a 0.26 GPA and a JetTech manager said “He could not fly at all.” His FAA certificate had become invalid late in 1999 when he failed to take a mandatory medical examination. In February, Hanjour began advanced simulator training in Mesa, Arizona.

So WHO said he could not pilot a Cessna?
Hanjour had a pilot licence with commercial rating
I'm sure you've read about how just three weeks before 9/11 he was refused the rental of a Cessna after being takin' on a test flight or three. The guy couldn't fly or land the thing so...and I'm sure you've read about the less than glowing revues which some of his instructors gave. And I'm sure you've read what Eddie or Eddy Shuvel told the 9/11 Commission, which fly's in the face of what others have said. Ain't it funny how the 9/11 Commission (or Omission) chose to take testimony from Eddy but not from others who would have contradicted what Eddy claimed.

Hanjour's problem was not so much with flying it was his poor command of English - air traffic control worldwide
is done in English .

The plan was to sieze the plane after it already got into the air so they didn't need to know how to take off, and it was a suicide mission so they didn't need to know how to land. All they needed to know was how to use the automatic pilot and how to steer ther plane.

If I were planing to highjack a plane and steer it to some distination, why would I have any interest in the auto pilot. It's function is to keep it on a set course, isn't it.
It seems this would hinder my plans of steering the plain in the directions I needed toward my target.
Moving the control yoke disengages the auto pilot.

Why can't you answer the simple question of what your background in physics is? So how is anybody supposed to think you're credible when nobody knows whether you have a physics doctorate or whether you're just reading something off the back of a box of cereal?
Actually, the autopilot does whatever the pilot asks it to do. The flight recorder from flight 77 was recovered and it revealed the hijackers had dialed in the destination of Reagan Airport (inside Washington D.C.), and they essentially allowed the autopilot to fly the plane to the D.C. area for them. After that, all the would need to do is turn it off and steer the plane into whatever their target was.

The fact remains that regardless of what those damned fool conspiracy web sites are telling you, Hani Hanjour did in fact master these duties sufficiently enough to earn a commercial pilot's license, which makes this whole "no plane hit the Pentagon" nonsense entirely moot.
You're confused as I never said "no plane hit the Pentagon."

And why doesn't anyone want to comment on the side of the Pentagon that was hit? I mean, seriously, were the hijackers that out of touch with their targets. They had five sides to choose from and they just happened to choose the side that had just been reinforced?
C'monnnn...
