So were the World Trade Center towers which were designed to survive
if an airliner plowed into them. But the engineers who designed the
towers didn't factor in the fact that airliners are not just
structural impact loads, the carry fuel too. Oops.


So their collapse was fundamentally an engineering screwup?


Nor did the engineers ever conceptualize someone WANTING to fly into them
in such a way as to cause thier demise.

It's happened and it's fact, but I still can't imagine sitting in that
cockpit and intentionally doing that...
