9/11 Redux 1

I was unaware of the effects of the canal shore on the Ever Given. I had never thought that Bernoulli was involved.

I was wondering what the effect of the low altitude and the skyscrapers, in proximity to the flight path, had on the 747s flying into the twin towers. I assume there was an effect; does anyone have an idea of what it is? What level of difficulty was involved in flying the planes into the buildings? Alistair may have a handle on this, as well as others.

Rather than think climate change and the corona virus as science, think of it as the wrath of God. Feel any better?

And lets not mention the caa chief test pilot barrel rolling Concorde after the tank mod was done over the Irish sea..... after the frogs screwed everything up with an over weight takeoff completely outside performance

Speaking of flying close to buildings, here's some antics from down under; these guys were flying a C-17 through downtown Brisbane:
