I think our poor physics-less friend Yankee here is laboring under the delusion that we think the airplane entered the tower completely intact. Yankee, no one here would deny that the plane was ripped apart by the force of the impact with the tower; what seems to have escaped your notice, though, is that the disintegrating plane would have exerted an equal amount of force in the opposite direction.

This thread has lasted at least 7 pages too long.

What does the weight of the building have to do with it? The columns that were impacted were held in place by bolts and welds, and the strength of the columns and their connections is all that matters. By your logic, the plane was impacted by a 6,000,000, 000,000,000,000,000 ton planet, since the building was attached to the bedrock.

While driving down the road, a firefly strikes the windshield of a bus and makes a quite obvious mess in front of the face of the driver. This is a clear case of Newton's third law of motion. The firefly hit the bus and the bus hits the firefly. Which of the two forces is greater: the force on the firefly or the force on the bus?

Actually it's not. It is one mass in motion. This figure is needed to calculate the kinetic energy. The mass of the building is only important if you want to know if this energy is enough to move the entire building. Naturally this would assume that the impacting areas were strong enough to allow the transfer.
This is where you go off. You have not calculated the area of impacts ability to arrest this motion. NIST and Perdue did but, you don't believe in physics so you don't believe them. |

Your video is not up to the level of tripe. Best suited for Pilots for Truth, or another fantasy forum where 911 truth nuts hang out, who will eat up your lies.
What happen to the people on Flight 11 and 175? How does you fantasy handle murder? Here you are making fun of murdered people, killed by 19 terrorists, and you make up silly lies. |

Got to love 911 truth vs 911 truth.
This is at yankee451's web site, see OP if you need to see fantasy in action.
Quote:
The 500k/yr is the answer why Gage makes no progress. If 911 is solved in the minds Gage's cult of drones, there will be no more money for Gage. Will Gage fund yankee451's wing test? No, Gage needs 1,000 dollar suits, the latest computers, and the 400 dollar rooms, dinner, and first class travel. There are only a few (not really) who spend money to building fantasy, Disney, Six Flags, and yankee451. |
