watch this footage and you will see a quick frame of something all blurry before an explosion.
since we can't see it for sure to know it is an airplane, there is a very good chance that it was a missile.
are we to believe the numerous eyewitnesses who claim they saw a plane?
and there doesn't seem to be a lot of debris from this so-called plane.
I think there may be more to the story and am hoping some of our intrepid sleuths in the 9/11 forum can use their incredible expertise to solve this riddle.

1. Well

The tail section wasn't found so it MUST have been a missle.

All plane crashes have the tail section intact.

It is possible however, that it was a fly-by. Mini nukes planted in the tarmac by gullible fools months ago caused the explosion. Plane just flies away unnoticed since everyone is watching the "boom".

Or space beams.

Any of these are infinitely more plausible than a WWII era plane crashing at an air race.

2. I like your thinking

but you left out micro-nano=super-duper thermate.

It just doesn't look right...

3. Where is CIT when you need them...

:::sigh:::

4. "left out" -- yeah, right

I'm sure that was just coincidental. No way could terra firma be trying to steer you away from the real explanation. :eyes:

Damn, this stuff defies parody. It's not hard to be tacky, but it's practically impossible to take it over the top, because the bar has been set so damn high.

5. Mini nuke

Gotcha!

7. the absence of any radiation leads me to believe

that is was a mini-nuke.
obviously, they are covering it up by stating there is no fallout.
as always, lack of evidence is evidence of a cover-up.

6. Spontaneous collapse of the stands due to fire, which no one could have imagined.

8. I know this is humor but...

I know this is humor but...if you had waited a day or two you would have heard the same thing from our resident CTers. I heard Marvin Bush and his company handled security and safety inspections at the races. Silverstein was heard to say, "pull it" and then the trim tab came loose.

In all seriousness though, it was an incredible loss of life. The pilots know the risks but does the audience? While I fully support the races continuing on, I would move the bleachers.

I hope everyone involved gets better physically and are mentally able to clear this horrible event out of their conscientiousness.

9. not sure if moving the bleachers makes a difference

maybe the flight patterns of the formations they are doing?
even then, if something goes wrong, the plane could end up anywhere, so not sure what the solution is to prevent future accidents...
