So what I'm hearing you say is you found out about oxygen bottles and that is what made you decide the flash was post impact rather than prior. Notice what I am writing the existence or non existence of oxygen bottles should have no bearing on whether you thought the flash was pre or post impact. You tried to duck this issue and not come right out and say it because you know this is what I would write, but that is really what you are saying.
At first I was responding to YOUR INSISTENCE that the flash was pre-impact. the video YOU posted was really not clear and I allowed YOU the benefit of the doubt then. THAT is why I then spoke to plausible explanations of a pre-impact flash.
THEN as other clearer videos were posted YOU switched to admitting a post aircraft impact flash so the talk then turned to PLAUSIBLE explanations for such a thing.
Got it?
So perhaps you will explain now why you argued so strongly for pre-impact flash given that you question why I spoke to it?
I don't understand, you seem like an intelligent individual, yet you do anything and everything to try and disprove CTs.
Incorrect, I use my intelligence to question implausible scenarios put forward. Your missile scenario ranks up there with the best (worst?) of implausible scenarios, on many levels.
In fact your beliefe of it and the CIT scenario would indicate that you are willing to subscribe to just about any scenario that adheres to the basic mantra of '911 was in inside job' and that this is your strating point.
Waaaay back in late Sept of 2001 I first saw the claims of bombs in the WTC. I looked into the 'evidence' and found it severely wanting for plausibility. Especially onnerous were the claims of material being thrown upwards as 'evidenced' in stills of the collapse. On video it was obviously not the case. Since that time I have simply not seen ANY scenario that stands up as well as those put forth by NIST and others who agree that impact and fire caused all death and damages. That certainly includes your contentions in this thread.
Why not use you intelligence to questions aspects of the official story as well? There's nothing wrong with doing both, I know I certainly do.
Perhaps the search function and enough time would have you find that I DO have some questions.
Two of them would be
- Why did NIST step lightly around the issue of PANYNJ getting a different fire code than NYC? Seems they did not wish to attach any blame. I can appreciate that but on this issue perhaps some truth to power was in order.
- NIST concluded that heat expansion of the floor beams caused the walk-off of the girder that led to WTC 7's collapse. I would have preffered that NIST also take in account the effect of cooling contraction of sagging beams pulling the girder off its seats. This would have been the case if the girder survived the fire phase but succumbed to the effect of cooling and contraction.
You'll never see me talking about DEW or no planes(at the WTC) the pentagon is a slightly different matter.
The CIT scenario IS a "no plane" scenario.
They contend that a plane approached the Pentagon and was witnessed by dozens(hundreds?) of people doing so, but that it rose up and over the Pentagon unseen and unnoticed while some other mechanism caused the death and destruction in the Pentagon. No plane caused the death and damage, according to the CIT. Therefore the CIT scenario is a no plane scenario no better than the ones concerning the WTC.
Congrats on not believeing Judy Wood or Morgan Reynolds.
In regards to a missile vs other explanations, yes a missile is more possible than the explanations that were given almost everyone that is mentioned, is impossible, so yes a missile would be more probably. The only that's not impossible is a discharge of some sort, but I have found no data, that a discharge would look anything like we see.
NO! That is an appeal to ignorance logical fallacy at best. This would be saying that since there is no definitive explanation for something that your explanation must be plausible.
The whole issue is moot however given that no missile would in any way offer significant advantage to the effect the aircraft would have on the tower much less how much of the aircraft would enter the structure.
My opinion, given all that has gone forth in this thread, is that the first 'flash' is likely a vapour cone effect on the starboard inboard part of the wing and the angle of the sun lighting up this vapour,
AND
that the second 'flash' is either a sun reflection off the convex surface of the aircraft as it warped on impact(sun reflects off WTC windows , then off the a/c, or directly off the a/c), OR, the explosion of the O
2 bottle as it is burst on impact with the WTC.
No mysterious unseen missile required either to ensure aircraft penetration or to explain the 'flashes'.
