In reply to the discussion: 9/11 Aircraft - Why Fly So Fast? [View all]delphi72
(74 posts)39. 747 Crash Tests?
I saw Boeing 747s equipped with remote control to do crash tests back in 1998.
747s? Did you? Would you perchance have any links to that? Crash tests, please, not some NASA or NTSB program experimenting with remote controls. That has always been there.
Any discussion about how frequent or new or old or whatever remote control flight is is really a silly argument. Joe Kennedy died when his experimental remote-controlled aircraft blew up over the Channel in 1944. There has never been any question about the relative technology of "remote control" aircraft. The absurd argument is that it was used on 9/11. There is no evidence at all - none, zip, nada, zilch, nein, nyet, zero - for any of that happening to either of the 757 or 767 aircraft. To claim such is nothing but naked rampant speculation and guessmongering based on what someone wants to have happened and in no way is based on any sort of evidence or logic.
Case in point: You claim:
and when the pilots tried to fly where they wanted they couldn't.
Yet United 93 ended up being flown into the ground. If. indeed. that aircraft (as well as the others) was "fitted with the same technology" you claim (whatever magical technology that would be), why would those All Powerful Controllers crash the aircraft when they had complete control and could have continued on their nefarious plot/flight?
Sounds like you are an ideal candidate for PfT. You probably should take up Balsamo's suggestion and go read their woo. Balsamo would appreciate yet another aviation-challenged intellectual eunuch in his ranks.
