#400mph
You think you know what something hitting the ground at 400mph looks like, but no, it's faster than that

The VBB-3 couldn’t beat the wheel-driven record, sadly.

Even commercial airliners leaves little to no wreckage when they hit the ground in a nose-dive. We are talking about 400mph+ resulting in scattered fragments.

Picture is a 737 MAX near vertical crash, basically just a crater.

For example, you need to be a professional member of a relevant institution to be a practicing civil engineer (buildings, bridges, highways etc) which comes with governance, ethics, continuous development etc

But aerospace engineering where you put 200 people in an 400mph metal tube with wings..🤷‍♂️

And studies/computer sims using data from Hurricane Irma (2017) suggest that the hilly terrain of Jamaica likely enhanced the winds in some areas to a HUGE degree.
It is theoretically possible that extremely localized, brief instantaneous gusts, could have exceeded 300, perhaps even close to 400mph

An 86-year-old race car driver just broke a land speed record at the Bonneville Salt Flats in Utah.

Gary Matranga managed to hit 310mph in a heavily-modified 1966 Barracuda, but he thinks this is too slow and wants to hit 400mph before he turns 90.

An 86 year old man in Sacramento has gone 300 mph at Bonneville salt flats. He is now building one that can go 400mph. We took away mom's car keys at that age, She only drove 2 miles to country club to swim in Hawaii. But had a lot of minor accidents.

And then the ramjets kick in and you bash it against a wall at 400mph!

...oh wait that's Galactic Racer...

Wow, great but not quite as amazing as a British Tempest pilot in WWII, getting its wing under a V2 doodlebug at 400mph and tipping its wing so it crashed harmlessly into a field.
A Ukrainian MiG-29 shoots down a Russian Geran-4 attack drone in the skies of Kyiv Oblast with two short bursts from its 30mm GSh-301 autocannon. With only 150 rounds in its magazine, the autocannon can fire for at most 5-6 seconds (maybe 10-15 bursts?). Superb piloting skills.

Driving straight into a wall at 400mph and feeling Proust's Madeleine exiting the back of my skull at the same velocity as my inner child claps.

To defeat V-1 cruise missiles, only moderately faster than Geran-5s at 400mph, Allies deployed 1,600 40mm and 94mm (3.7") flak guns in UK. Once integrated with radar, these killed 60-80% of V1s averaging just 100 shells per kill. That's in 1944-1945!

half the time there's no way they're flying higher than 3000ft at less than 400mph. it's goofed to all hell. go do this to cities that haven't had their govt send in the troops to murder them and occupy them yet. cities you haven't katrinad yet. maybe white ones outside of cancer alley? just an idea

Had Local Tea For Local People™️ at 6.30pm like ACTUAL pensioners (new restaurant, still finding its feet a bit) + after 400mph catch up with the joyous friends, I AM ALREADY IN BED with my face washed, + a tiny Armagnac nightcap in a vintage BCal ✈️ glass 😍

... nipped out to the Itsu opposite the office for some lunch + there was Hannah Hayes-Walker, not seen in NINE YEARS. The classic 400mph catch up - which she brilliantly called 'the organ recital' (fibroids 😆) - and news of other mutual friends + I LOVE LONDON for exactly this 🥰

I've seen literal ground zero videos of the planes hitting. Not only are memories flawed but so is logic. 737s are big planes. Them hitting buildings at 400mph + loaded with jet fuel is a problem.
