Good explanation and I think it’s true now that I remember fuel tanks in the wings.
So you think the wings, fuselage, landing gear all incinerated with the heat of the explosion?
Would you say some AC portions were flung far on impact and should have been found?
Flight 93 parts were found but they crashed into the ground, not a building. Difficult to understand how crashing into a building would incinerate everything yet crashing into the ground would not, other than the dispersion area of the remains is larger on the ground. Ii don’t know, there are facts missing.
“”So you think the wings, fuselage, landing gear all incinerated with the heat of the explosion?””
Aluminum has a very low melting point, far below the temps of Jet A burning so it can easily melt. There’s also allot of Magnesium involved in the heavier structural parts and they also melt. Should the fire create such a draft that it heats up the Magnesium to it’s burning point and ignites you have a fire that will melt almost anything. So it’s possible that the fire if concentrated enough and hot enough could actually melt and vaporize many parts of a plane.

From what I seen on the impacts into buildings I would say you had far more penetration than you did dispersion. It’s hard to stop that much weight going at that speed, there’s just so much momentum. A horizontal or somewhat horizontal impact will disperse but a 90 degree impact doesn’t have any where to go but forward. Lead is very soft yet when fired at a steel plate fast enough will penetrate due to density and momentum. A loaded 747 weights over 900,000 pounds, now imagine that momentum at 650 MPH. They’re moving at about the same speed as a 45 ACP. I could figure out the actual ft/lbs of energy but I’m not sure my calculator can handle it.
