Interesting...my brother was in the Pentagon on 9/11. I’ll have to see if he’s aware of this book; I’m sure he’d like to give it a read. I love being with him when we come across some “troothers” and they start talking about missiles. Not only was he in the building (USAF side), he has his bachelors degrees in physics and aeronautical engineering, and advanced degrees in geophysics, so from both an experential and academic perspective he’s got a very good understanding of the event. Although he’s usually very reserved in his manners, the person that dares suggest they know the, “truth” about what happened is in for a very long and animated lecture/physics lesson from which they can only emerge sounding like an absolute moron.
The chapter on the impact of the plane describes exactly what happened in the span of 8/10ths of second. It is great reading. The physics of a plane flying 500mph carrying over 5,000 gallons of aviation fuel smashing into the side of a concrete and steel office building are undeniable. (We’ll... at least they SHOULD be undeniable to anyone with any reasoning ability.)
WOW! I would pay real money to hear your brother take on one of the truthers!!
