Gt: you're arguments are very weak. Yup radar huh, there are NEVER any mid air collisions right? do a search on google I bet you'll find some. And there's NO other reason a pilot would have to make a drastic manuever right? Maybe to avoid a flock of geese or a hot air balloon some other flying thing that might not show up on an supposed infallible radar.

-aircraft engineers are sitting around designing safety measures: "hey lets make it impossible to avoid small aircraft that might not show up on radar or (insert some other reason to make a sharp turn) so someone doesn't get hurt if the pilot decides to play a joke on passengers by yanking the plane for no reason"- sounds perfectly plausible.

I always like how the conspiracy theorists like to break hugely complex situations down into some simple little kiddie problem and then shout "Look my highschool physics shows such and such is impossible, the gov't is out to get us!!" yup, rediculous.

What's the point?? Hmm maybe to ensure a sweeping victory of their party the next election perhaps? To get more allies on our side so we can go off and invade anyone else? For shits and giggles? Like you said everyone now hates bush, wouldn't it be nice for him to say "I TOLD you so!" and america will rejoice and he can bask in the glow of approval. Nah, planting some primitive weapons is too difficult.

dabouncer: huh? there's no argument about which method is more persuasive so whats your point?
