@sarahwhitlock6100 >>> 1945: Aircraft engine cylinders & cylinder heads, all HOT: STEEL. Main landing gear struts: {probably} STEEL. {Landing gear brake discs ALSO STEEL.} ALL control cables throughout the airframe: STEEL. Any guns or other weapons mounted in the aircraft: STEEL. Bomb-supporting hardware in the bomb bay: STEEL. ALL moving at ~200 MPH prior to impact. 2001: ALL the Bypass Fan Blades in each TURBOFAN Engine: TITANIUM. {And SPINNING as well!} Almost the ENTIRE TURBINE SECTION of each engine: TITANIUM or STEEL. {Also MUCH HOTTER than the radial piston engines used on the B-25 Mitchell.} 2001: ALL the other stuff I mentioned for 1945, minus the weapons and bomb bay: STEEL. ALL MUCH LARGER than a Mitchell, and all moving OVER 300 MPH prior to impact, intentionally trying to ram into a building.... {THAT was 5+ minutes of my life I will NEVER get back....}

@TheHistoryGuyChannel >>> SORRY for the 'Truther Rants'. Some things just TRIGGER ME, and the FACTS have to be expressed. NOT that they will make much difference, much like the 'Apollo Moon Landing Hoax' crowd. {For ANY of THEM reading this, I SAW the launch of APOLLO 16 in person, aling with my parents. 'Nuff said...}

@TheHistoryGuyChannel >>> GREAT VIDEO! FWIW, one VERY SMALL correction: The German V-1 "Buzz Bomb" was not a rocket, nor rocket powered. It was a first generation subsonic cruise missile, powered by a single air-breathing pulsejet engine.

@erikpaul5847 >>> I just posted a similar comment, before reading yours. As someone else mentioned, the V-1 was propelled by a pulsejet, not a ramjet. 😊

@luchacefox259 >>> Give it a rest, okay??

@phantom7crossrose528 >>> The flame temperature inside {larger} gas turbine engines is WELL OVER 1,000°C. In the T-56 powered Lockheed C-130 Hercules aircraft, the Maximum Turbine Inlet Temperature {yes, referred to as "MAX T.I.T."}, is 1,010°F. And THAT is DOWNSTREAM of the actual combustion. Ever seen video of a building being professionally demolished with explosives? They DO NOT NUKE IT UNTIL IT VAPORIZES. They DAMAGE IT just enough - to the point where it cannot support its own weight - and it collapses. Just so we are clear: I was an "AD" {"Aviation Machinist's Mate" - worked on aircraft powerplants and propellers} in the US NAVY for 3 years, and worked on Lockheed EC-130G/Q Hercules aircraft. I was later an "AD" in the US COAST GUARD for most of 17 years, and in that time worked on {and flew on} Lockheed HC-130H Hercules aircraft for five years. Prior to that, I also worked {and flew on} HU-25A/B/C Guardian aircraft {a version of what was then the Dassault Falcon business jet}. BTW: I ♥ BLEEDAIR BLIMPS!!!! {A nickname for the Lockheed C-130 Hercules aircraft. 😊} {AFTER editing, THAT was 5+ minutes of my life I will NEVER get back....}
