28. The Precision Times Are Reliable
The Lamont-Doherty seismic data is accurate. They computed it based upon many criteria and the confidence level was so high they had it down to plus or minus 1 second for the first reading at .9 Richter, and plus or minus 2 seconds for the second reading at .7 Richter.

They would not have published these times if they were not precise as stated.

The FAA data is also reliable, precise to microseconds?...
When the transponders were turned off, the FAA immediately continued tracking, but only with Primary Radar Return (the only thing you lose with PRR is the altitude, and this did not matter in this situation), and they did this using 4 separate radar stations in the Northeast sector where this happened that were available to track. All of their data is down to the precise second up until the signal termination. That is how we know the planes impacted the toweres when they did. We do not concern ourselves with how low the planes were because they never lost the track.

Believe it because it is true.
