Yes, while the FBI flight path shows sharp turns based on connecting the dots, this wouldn’t have actually been the case. That said, with the aft stairs down and the plane banking into the wind, what kind of effect would that have had on the plane?
Chaucer, You are missing the point completely! The plane was not "banking into the wind"! The plane didn't have the slightest idea where the winds aloft were coming from. Again, and again, and again, you have got to understand that once the airplane gets off the ground and out of the ground effect the aerodynamics of the airplane are independent of the winds regardless of whether they are the ground winds or the winds aloft.
But the winds aloft must be considered in the navigation of the airplane.
After Battleground the plane turned to the southwest - into the SE winds. That's all I'm saying.
Chaucer, the winds were from the SOUTHWEST. They were actually measured from the SOUTHWEST as the data Tom Kaye dug up plainly shows, they were forecast to be from the SOUTHWEST as the data put out by the FAA for flight planning plainly shows, and there is absolutely nothing believable to suggest that they were from any other direction.
Further, there is nothing to suggest that a so-called Captain Bohan was actually airborne that evening. So you can ignore his claims which were made about nine years after the hijacking.
