Reply #8: Trail of smoke in Pentagon pictures

[crispy]

The reason people give for not wanting to discuss the Pentagon crash photos is that we have no idea if the photos are authentic, and thus any speculation about what the photos imply is just a waste of words. Yet we still can draw some pretty important conclusions if we set up a little experiment.

Let us just assume, for now, that the photos are authentic. If we can rule out the possibility that a Boeing 757 caused that white trail of smoke, then the 757 camp has no choice but to say the photos are fabricated. This would be a very significant conclusion. It would be especially so if the photos were then proved to be authentic, which would effectively end the debate in favor of the "no Boeing" camp.

So, when we talk about the trail of smoke and other elements in the photos, let us for now assume that the photos are authentic.

So now let me begin the discussion with the very important question: Under what circumstances would a Boeing 757 create a single trail of white smoke?
