A Boeing 757-300 weighing 270,000 lbs flying at 500 miles per hour is easily going to penetrate any building that does not have thick concrete steel reinforced exterior walls (Nuclear Reactor Containment building)
Math is HARRRRDDD!!

Pretty much. The rebar in a reactor dome is enormous. You can bounce most anything short of a howitzer shell off of it.
A guy I went to high school with was the pilot of American Airlines Flight 77, the one that the hijackers flew into the Pentagon. My dad had an office on that side of the Pentagon’s outer ring some 50 years ago. The Pentagon is a reinforced structure but not a match for an airliner.
I’m sure that a Nuclear Reactor Containment building would not withstand it. In fact, I’m going to go out on a limb and say it would be a huge disaster.
Agreed, the mass will penetrate. Now, how does it make a 110 story building come down at free-fall speed pancaking the floors one by one?
