9/11 - Inkompetenz/Vertuschung - oder doch Absicht?
12.09.2016 um 14:01Eben der Zettel von der Port Authority entbehrt jeglicher Grundlage woher die Annahme mit dem 600 mph kommt. Robertson ging von einem langsamen Landeanflug aus. Das ganze war mehr eine übereilte Aussage (von einem Beamten der PA) für die Presse um die Sicherheit des WTC zu verdeutlichen.
Das ganze geht auf ein politisches Hick-Hack mit Lawrence Wien zurück.
For whatever reason, Robertson took the time to calculate how well his towers would handle the
impact from a Boeing 707, the largest jetliner in service at the time. He says that his calculations assumed a plane lost in a fog while searching for an airport at relatively low speed, like the B-25 bomber. He concluded that the towers would remain standing despite the force of the impact and the hole it would punch out.
One architect working for the Port Authority issued a statement to the press, covered in a prominent article in The Times, explaining that Robertson's study proved that the towers could withstand the impact of a jetliner moving at 600http://www.nytimes.com/2002/09/08/magazine/the-height-of-ambition.html
miles an hour. That was perhaps three times the speed that Robertson had considered. If Robertson saw the article in the paper, he never spoke up about the discrepancy. No one else issued a correction, and the question was answered in many people's minds: the towers were as safe as could be expected, even in the most cataclysmic of circumstances.
