9/11 Blogger

Patriots Question 9/11 has a brand new entry on a former air
defense expert and expert on jet turbines. His statements about
the lack of interception of the hijacked jets is important.
His bio for the 2006 primary for Oregon's 2nd District congressional
race is here (page 12)
I take no position on what crashed at the Pentagon, and it
is possible that Captain Davis has simply not seen all of the
relevant photographs.
Capt. Daniel Davis, U.S. Army – Former U.S. Army Air
Defense Officer and NORAD Tac Director. Decorated with the
Bronze Star and the Soldiers Medal for bravery under fire and
the Purple Heart for injuries sustained in Viet Nam. Also served
in the Army Air Defense Command as Nike Missile Battery Control
Officer for the Chicago-Milwaukee Defense Area. Founder and
former CEO of Turbine Technology Services Corp., a turbine
(jet engine) services and maintenance company (15 years). Former
Senior Manager at General Electric Turbine (jet) Engine Division
(15 years). Private pilot.
* Statement to this website 3/23/07:
"As a former General Electric Turbine engineering specialist
and manager and then CEO of a turbine engineering company,
I can guarantee that none of the high tech, high temperature
alloy engines on any of the four planes that crashed on 9/11
would be completely destroyed, burned, shattered or melted
in any crash or fire. Wrecked, yes, but not destroyed. Where
are all of those engines, particularly at the Pentagon? If
jet powered aircraft crashed on 9/11, those engines, plus wings
and tail assembly, would be there.
Additionally, in my experience as an officer in NORAD as a
Tactical Director for the Chicago-Milwaukee Air Defense and
as a current private pilot, there is no way that an aircraft
on instrument flight plans (all commercial flights are IFR)
would not be intercepted when they deviate from their flight
plan, turn off their transponders, or stop communication with
Air Traffic Control. No way! With very bad luck, perhaps one
could slip by, but no there's no way all four of them could!
Finally, going over the hill and highway and crashing into
the Pentagon right at the wall/ground interface is nearly impossible
for even a small slow single engine airplane and no way for
a 757. Maybe the best pilot in the world could accomplish that
but not these unskilled "terrorists".
Attempts to obscure facts by calling them a "Conspiracy
Theory" does not change the truth. It seems, "Something
is rotten in the State."
