Everytime the host asks Dom a question where he would have to supply facts he responds "well I talked to this guy......"

The white plane was there, it was a Falcon 20. Sad, TC says the pilot is a liar.

Funny stuff, big white plane, small white plane.

Close, far.

TC is not very good!

Dom, and Domer ideas.

It depends on if you think of "Blah Blah Blah" as "Blah+Blah+Blah" or "Blah.Blah.Blah"

Every time a crackpot says "doomsday plane" a clown gets his nose.

"What do you think happened?"
Dom then goes on to say how a majority of people who he has spoken with say it was shot down.
And of course he goes on about how the passengers revolted so they had to shoot it down.
Suuuuuuuure Dom!

Ok now the host is talking about holograms.
Dom is soooo desparate that he needs to embrace the space beamers and hologramers.
Koo Koo Koo Koo
Time to go.

Oh, I missed it! Did Dom really say the little plane that flew under the wires had a window?! Who the hell was piloting it, Lilliputians?

I still don't see how this makes any sense. If the plane had actual hijackers under the control of the government, they could have just crashed it. If it was remote-controlled, it would be unaffected by the passenger revolt. So why a shoot-down?

This doesn't make any sense at all!

Not only that, why didnt they have the plane hit a target like the rest of them ? Why not admit they shot it down to prevent it from hitting a target.

These nutjobs cannot connect the dots on their theories.

Dom, are you ever going to show your math for this claim? Do you need help?

Your parameters so far are:

length = 20 ft
depth = 8 ft
width = ???

So, since you can't seem to solve this, how about some assistance:

We will assume the width as 8 ft also, though all of your numbers appear lower than the published info, including from your buddy Killtown's site.

20ft*8ft*8ft=1280 ft^3
1280ft^3*100 lbs/ft^3 (average weight of one cubic foot of dirt)=128000 lbs
128000 lbs / 2000 lbs = 64 tons

So, since you stated that at least 50 tons would have to be displaced, your numbers show that the correct amount of dirt was displaced. However, if we use more realistic parameters based on published reports (though erring on the conservative side), we have:

length = 30 ft (published reports say 30-40)
width = 10 ft (published reports say 15)
depth = 8 ft (published reports say 18)

30*10*8 = 2400 cubic feet
2400*100/2000= 120 tons

So, where is your math showing that an incorrect amount of dirt was displaced?
