Test offers evidence to skeptics who cite lack of debris after Pentagon crash

[gLing]

A video clip widely circulated on the Internet shows a test that pulverized an F-4 fighter on impact with a hardened target, providing evidence to answer 9/11 skeptics who question why so little identifiable airplane debris remained after the hijacked American Airlines Boeing 757 hit the Pentagon.

The test, conducted in 1988 at Sandia National Laboratories in Albuquerque, N.M., was designed to demonstrate whether a proposed Japanese nuclear power plant could withstand the impact of a heavy airliner.

The video shows the F-4 jet pulverizing on impact. The only parts of the airplane that remain intact and recognizable are the very tips of the wings, which exceeded the concrete slab in width and were not involved in the direct impact.

The video is cool

Never doubted the explanation of the 9/11 attacks.. People were killed because terrorists flew planes into buildings. The evidence has always pointed to that. Of course there will always be questions but from the evidence it's the far most plausible explanation.

There's been plenty who have questioned if a plane "really" flew into the Pentagon. The lack of evidence has been a key factor. This crash test looks pretty convincing. The side view in that video was most impressive to me. 500 mph to zero at point of impact. Incredible.
