Default The Impossibility of Flying Heavy Aircraft Without Training

..... Consider the collapse of the South WTC Tower
on 9-11:



......But then - and this I'm still
puzzling over - this block turned mostly to powder in mid-air! How can we
understand this strange behavior, without explosives?


God, what a simpleton. Every floor of that tower had about thirty tons of
sheetrock installed (loose estimate - might only be 20 tons). Immediately
upon the collapse initiation, that stuff is pulverized and spews that same
30 tons per floor of gypsum dust in all directions. My [then] 14 year-old
son figured that out about 20 seconds after watching the video for the first
time.
