You do realize they move at like, 700 MPH right? Commercial planes can cross all of NYC in a couple of minutes, much less through the restricted airspace in question.

yes, but any plane LANDING at Reagan MUST REDUCE AIRSPEED to avoid overshooting the runway

this means if they do NOT, they have time to SHOOT THEM DOWN

9/11 truthers are always quick to blame the all powerful and totally competent bush admin but never seem to point out how the attackers had Saudi ties.

because their approach vectors (which includes speed) dictates if they are indeed in a particular flight path

Your pointing fingers at the wrong govt.

it's like a carousel

if you miss your approach window, there is a plane behind you... so you have to loop around

too fast and you overtake the plane in front of you

A typical fully loaded 747 would be landing at around 25,0000kgs. The landing speed would be around 145kts-150kts (166mph-172mph)

and you have to me moving abnormally fast for a considerable time, not to mention communicating everything is fine with air traffic control in order to not raise a red flag

so a second to go the distance from the airport to the pentagon

even at landing speed

<:pepelaugh:544857300179877898>

doesn't work that way

aircraft must be moving no faster that 130mph to touch down

i think youre overestimating things lol

even at 130 mph it could coer the distance to the pentagon in less than a second

that requires a specific flight configuration for planes that size

Let me ask you this:

Why would the United States goverment, the non-commie gov that has the biggest obsession with not being embarrassed, the government that is obsessed with showing off their military power, be so willing to admit that they fucked up to the point of showing video of their own military headquarters being attacked, if it didn't legitimately happen?

air at lower altitudes is thicker and thus flaps must be extended on approach to compensate. those same flaps would be ripped the hell off at higher speeds

i uh

dont think the terrorists

Especially cowboy bush

much cared if the flaps got ripped off

tbh

they can't just 'decide' right befor the runway and still make it as far as they did before getting blown out of the sky

they kinda were in it to win it

>less than a second to hit the pentagon

the plane would have CRASHED

>will get blown out

it did crash

this isn't a matter of WILL

intp the pentagon

want doesn't change the laws of physics

those are Rolls Royce Gas Turbine engines

they don't take that kind of abuse... they STALL

so a stalling engine

so no more thrust

but momentum still exists

and the wings still exist
