by remote control, like an rc plane? autopilot does most the work anyway doesnt it?

NASA have made remote controlled Boeings in the past.
Have look here (www.dfrc.nasa.gov)

i wonder if they put that fire inhibitor in fuel nowadays, it doesnt look like it...

these romote controlled planes are interesting though (especially considering their purpose lol)

Don't think so. I played it a bit but don't think I got that good :illogical

His questions are valid - if you think otherwise you are part of the problem.

447351 2006-04-21 08:55:00 A large plane flying very fast and a large explosion shortly thereafter could easily take out a couple of floors, in which case you practically have half a building falling ontop of the other half, both already weakened by the initial fire and explosion which could easily trigger a collapse of both parts.

as for stuff shooting out the sides of the buildings? pressure/weight could have been the cause of that.

I guess it all depends on the timing, it's possible it was explosions set off to collapse the building, but it was said that the design of the buildings lower floors to achieve their height was weaker than lower buildings and at a time when such an impact of said falling top of building could cause a large shockwave, it's possible the bottom just gave way.

Also, the buildings themselves would have been designed to collapse straight down in the event of such a scenario (do you really want them falling sideways???)

however failures of generators, oil pumps, sprinkler systems etc at the critical time does sound quite dodgy, and its possible that was too part of a planned scheme.


America being what it is I would not be surprised if the whole thing was a setup by the government or whoever.
