These muds fresh out of flight school in Cessnas and 10 hours on MS flight sim made it look so easy.

A new study by researchers at the International Center for 9/11 Justice (IC911) raises significant questions about the official account of how the aircraft involved on September 11, 2001, were flown.

Drawing on full-motion flight simulator tests conducted with three high-experience pilots and four low-experience pilots, the report finds that the maneuvers reportedly performed in the final moments before impact were both difficult to execute and counter-intuitive from a piloting standpoint.

By contrast, when pilots were tasked with simply hitting the targets, they consistently succeeded by using more direct, intuitive routes.

The study reveals that the reported flight paths, if real, involved unnecessary deviations, rapid descents, and last-second turns and pull-outs — maneuvers that pilots would evidently be unlikely to fly if the goal were just to hit the buildings.

I saw a comedy skit about it. They went into detail the impossible maneuvers that were somehow made on 9/11. "We need pilots as amazing as those terrorists." And the punchline was they were all trained in M$ Flight Simulator.
