But I take an even more cynical view that terrorists could not have flown the planes in the manner they were, especially the one that hit WTC2 and also the Pentagon, both of which would have required a highly skilled pilot or else were radio-controlled. Did the 9-11 commission investigate the training that the 19 hijackers received, and did they get expert testimony on what level of skill would be needed to pilot a 757 into a target? I'm not a pilot, so I don't have the answer. But having flown in the passenger seat of a small plane, it wouldn't have been that much of a trick to take the stick and zero in on a target if it was visable. But the terrorists couldn't see the towers or the Pentagon...they would have had to have at least rudimentary navigation skills...and they would have to know how to turn off the transponders too. Can you get that from a flight simulator? There's no transponders in a Cessna trainer. Orca
