WTC Tower Design Unveiled

Carrie · 12-21-2003

Choda I'm imagning huge suspension cables - flexible of course due to the height and wind where they'll be.
It would be easy to bounce a plan off of those... imagine a Cessna trying to fly into the cables on the Golden Gate Bridge.
Sure, a big 747 would probably not bounce off of them - in that case it would act much like the nets do on aircraft carriers that catch the unmanned planes.

Even so, if the plane *were* to hit the cables and bounce off, hitting another building... why is that of any concern to the people designing and erecting *this* building? Their purpose is to make *this* building as safe as possible, not to make it a lightning rod for planes just so the planes won't hurt any of the nearby structures.
