Have you even looked at the flight path that this bozo flew in order to hit the Pentagon? I must say, it is fascinating and somewhat unbelievable.
I'd counter that with saying that you must be much more cognizant of all of the other evidence; but like you - I'm very convinced with my belief of what happened that day. You can be as sure of your own theory (or conspiracy) as you wish too.

As far as experience - - I've taken MANY people to the sims with NO flight experience at all and had them fly the sim under the Coronado Bridge in San Diego. Amazing what they could do when they didn't have to worry about flying the sim *correctly*. Just set the throttles and point. Easier than parallel parking!

Of course this is a TWA 800 thread. Are you a missile theorist too?
If so....I'd be intersted in hearing your thoughts of the questions I posed in post #74.
