Im fully on board with the controlled demolition of all 3 buildings by an evil cadre that wishes to enslave us but kinetic energy is powerful. A planes wings going 500 miles an hour compared to one taxiing on the runway will produce two completely different outcomes.
These types of comparisons are not my favorite. They leave our argument open to attack.
Consider the damage done by the theorized rods from God. A 10 ton rod of tungsten steel dropped from orbit will out damage any thermonuclear device. There are no explosives involved it is pure kinetic energy.
I am a CE though and it is impossible for a plane to bring down the WTC without massive amounts of preparation beforehand. These buildings are designed with impacts of this nature in mind.
My first thoughts as well. Tornados can impale blades of grass into wooden telephone poles.
When this strawman gets raised, just say the following:
Even a WATERjet can slice steel, with enough momentum!
Water jets are moving at Mach 3 --- 60,000 psi pressure at a "microscopic" point.
I have skydived at 200 mph
Energy required to increase speed goes up by the cube.
My point: alu. parts can slice steel with enough momentum
the steel beam/column is going that same tremendous speed in the other direction.
Stand the wing up vertically ----- send these massive columns through it at 500 mph --- you will barely scratch the paint on the columns.

The columns in the 9/11 towers were not made of lamp posts.
Paper can cut aluminum. Oh sure maybe not the best aluminum, but a fun experience is to replace a table saw blade with paper to see what it can cut. It's a lot more than anyone would expect.
I'm not convinced that it wouldn't do substantial damage, but I am convinced that it wouldn't bring a whole reinforced tower down as it did.
Of course.
Explosives, whose residues have long been scientifically well documented, did the rest.
So why do birds beat up planes?
And what happens to the bird? Im not saying one or the other is left unaffected. The kinetic energy plays on both structures. And if you read my entire post, I stated I dont believe it possible that a plane could bring down these buildings.
Newton’s Third Law of Motion, probably.
You can flex the skin of an aluminum plane with your finger.
The aluminum skin loading of a airliner is about one pound per square inch.
"ONE" POUND PER SQUARE INCH
A 100 mph fastball would damage the shit out of it.
