Who couldn't fly a Cessna (max speed 278 mph) beyond flying school safe space and altitude of max. 13,000 ft ASL,..... let alone a Boeing airliner at 500 mph at 30,000 ft > 1,000 ft > 0 ft ASL.
Bullshit as usual. All three of the Hamburg cell guys attended flight schools in Florida and obtained private pilots licenses. (the 4th hijack pilot was a Saudi who had been brought in to replace another Hamburg cell member who failed to get a US visa)
The pilots license allowed them to gain access to, and train on large AC simulators.
They did not need to know all that much because they were not going to take off or land. All they needed to learn was how to change course, altitude and a few odds and ends. The combination of the basic flight training and the simulator experience was quite enough to allow them to direct a plane that was already airborne into a building....or crash it into a field.
Didn't you bother reading the post fully?
All four alleged hijackers were barely competent handling a Cessna, had absolutely NO training on a Boeing, and could in no way whatsoever fly one executing the complex pin-point accuracy necessary to hit the Pentagon (at less than 6 ft above ground level) and the two WTC towers at 1,000 ft.
Anyone who thinks that an untrained, unpracticed novice who can barely handle a Cessna can fly a Boeing at the speeds, altitudes and angles necessary to have hit any of the aforementioned targets is being totally unrealistic, a complete loon, no less, as you so ably demonstrate yourself to be, koman.
Practicing a few turns and moves on a "safe air-space" simulator is very far removed from flying the real thing in air traffic, any novice can play with one of those, but practicing on a simulator hoping to become a competent suicide pilot is a little like rattling a couple of spoons together in a leather bag hoping that they will sharpen into knives.
You're a total fool mate.
