If it does, that is 120,000 pounds of high explosives trvaelling at almost 600 mph. Calculate the energy involved and I believe you'll find a kiloton range yield. A weapon of mass destruction.

Some of those in the tower report being THROWN when it was - and the tower apparently moving FEET and rocking after the hit - I am impressed that it stood ...

The Boeing 767-300 has a maximum Fuel Capacity 23,980 U.S. gallons.

Boeing website:

OK engineers, someone want to get out those slide rulers and calculate the kiloton yield of a fully fueled Boeing 767 cruise missile traveling at 450 knots?

I read somewhere that the number one product and export of Afghanistan is opium. So it looks like we might get to kill two birds with one stone on this one. Can anyone confirm these Afghani production and export facts as well?
