Cause I've seen planes burn to pieces like the concorde but still there is somthing left.. I dont understand.. ?
Goonz, as I stated before, there is a great video on ifilms that should help with this. Its a test with a F-4 running into a concrete wall at speed. The video looks to be done in the 80s buy its quality. Search there for that video and it should help explain it. Sorry I can't remember what the title is.
yea but theres a difference between an F4 hitting than a 757..I dunno..oh well
there is, but the same principles apply, also you have to remember, when the Pentagon was designed, it was designed to resist a nuclear blast, IIRC.
Being an airplane buff, I'm sure you've seen the special where the raise the P-38 from under ice in Greenland or Iceland or something. First thye found the B-17..they thought it would be fine, but it was crushed. The P-38 was under the same stresses and was intact. So, if those same physics prinicples apply to those planes, I would think they would tranfer to the F-4/737/757 bodies, thus, I would think that LESS of the commerical airliner would be left and it is probably structurely weaker than a plane designed to land on aircraft carriers.
