People are not sure it was a plane that hit the pentagon...

in fairness, i was the one who said 10 seconds. in reality i'm sure it was something much closer to 1-3 seconds, so sorry.

but if you're so smart, where's your math?

also, the conversion was from NEWTONS to pounds force - nothing wrong there.

also also, pressure = force/area

also also also, don't knock 10th grade physics - classical mechanics is the foundation of all engineering.

i am a little miffed he said my "numbers were all fubar" when the only real difference between his analysis and mine was he converted square feet to square inches without making a careless error.
