Scientific Evidence That Flight 77 Did Not Strike The Pentagon


by Enver Masud <http://www.twf.org/bio/EMasud.html>  

[Watch <http://www.twf.org/News/News911.html> , read
<http://www.twf.org/Library/911Unveiled.html>  author's rebuttal of The 9/11
Commission Report.] 

A simple formula, familiar to high school students, may debunk the official
account of American Airlines Flight 77 that is alleged to have struck the
Pentagon on September 11, 2001. 

That formula <http://hyperphysics.phy-astr.gsu.edu/Hbase/cf.html#cfc>  is:
Force = Mass X Velocity Squared / Radius. 

This formula gives the additional force that would be exerted on a moving
object when it transitions from its downward path to level flight in a
circular arc. 

The official account is that Flight 77 struck the Pentagon at "530 miles per
hour" (The 9/11 Commission Report, p10) with "the top of the fuselage of the
aircraft no more than 20 ft above the ground" (Pentagon Building Performance
Report, p14). 

So the velocity input to the preceding formula is given as 530 miles per
hour. Next we determine the mass. 

Flight 77, a Boeing 757, had taken off from Washington Dulles International
airport, and was bound for Los Angeles. Assuming its fuel tanks were full,
and ignoring the weight of the 64 passengers, and cargo (which should be
available if one wants to include them), the weight of the plane would be
about 255,000 pounds (Boeing
<http://www.boeing.com/commercial/757family/technical.html>  Technical
Specifications). 

For our calculation we'll assume that weight and mass are equal, i.e.
255,000 pounds. 

To calculate the radius, we need the slope of the flight path before Flight
77 levels off. We then draw a circle for which this slope and a horizontal
line are tangents -- a simple problem in geometry. 

We can calculate the slope from the following description of its final
moments from The 9/11 Commission Report (p9): Flight 77 was "5 miles
west-southwest of the Pentagon" when it "began a 330-degree turn. At the end
of turn, it was descending through 2,200 feet". 

Alternatively, we calculate the slope from the Flight Data Recorder data. 

Pilots for 9/11 Truth <http://pilotsfor911truth.org/>  obtained the Flight
Data Recorder data following a Freedom of Information Act request filed with
the National Transportation Safety Board. 

Leaving aside the discrepancies between the official account of Flight 77,
and the Flight Data Recorder, Pilots for 9/11 Truth calculated a radius
equal to about 579 feet. 

>From this they calculated the force on the Boeing 757 at 34 Gs, i.e. 34
times the force due to gravity. 

There has been some criticism of the calculations performed by Pilots for
9/11 Truth, and they have answered
<http://video.google.com/videoplay?docid=5732289044586758033>  their
critics. 

With mass, velocity, and radius equal to 255,000 lbs, 530 mph, and 579 feet
respectively, the preceding formula
<http://hyperphysics.phy-astr.gsu.edu/Hbase/cf.html#cfc>  yields force equal
to 8,276,850 lbs, i.e. the Boeing 757 would act as if it weighed 8,276,850,
or more than 32 times its normal weight. 

With a force of this magnitude, the Boeing 757 would have disintegrated in
front of the Pentagon. There is no evidence that this is what occurred. 

This fact alone is sufficient to debunk the official account of Flight 77. 

If you disagree, figure out the mass, velocity, and radius, and plug them
into the formula to calculate the force. If you have a better formula, use
it. Could a Boeing 757 survive the calculated force? 

Given the scientific, and other evidence
<http://www.twf.org/News/Y2009/0101-FMFD161.html> , we stand by the
conclusion <http://www.twf.org/News/Y2005/0307-Pentagon.html>  we reached
four years ago: Flight 77 did not strike the Pentagon.
