Are people still peddling the pancake nonsense? NIST rejected the pancake theory yonks ago:
| Quote: | | NIST’s findings do not support the “pancake theory” of collapse, which is premised on a progressive failure of the floor systems in the WTC towers (the composite floor system—that connected the core columns and the perimeter columns—consisted of a grid of steel “trusses” integrated with a concrete slab; see diagram below). Instead, the NIST investigation showed conclusively that the failure of the inwardly bowed perimeter columns initiated collapse and that the occurrence of this inward bowing required the sagging floors to remain connected to the columns and pull the columns inwards. Thus, the floors did not fail progressively to cause a pancaking phenomenon. |

The pancake theory required the floor connections to become loose. NIST’s “collapse initiation” theory requires the floor connections to be sufficiently strong to cause significant deformation to the exterior columns

From your article Howie, I love this part ;
"I am not surprised very little was left of the aircraft after the collision into the twin towers and the pentagon"
I wonder how much of a surprise it would come to this guy, to discover that despite these planes being destroyed and evaporated by the impact, that both a pristine terrorists passport, along with retrievable DNA of the entire pentagon crash victims remained intact ?  |
