The AE911Truth Petition
To the Members of the House of Representatives and of the Senate of the United States of America,
PLEASE TAKE NOTICE THAT:
On Behalf of the People of the United States of America, the undersigned Architects and Engineers for 9/11 Truth and affiliates hereby petition for, and demand, a truly independent investigation with subpoena power in order to uncover the full truth surrounding the events of 9/11/01 – specifically the collapses of the World Trade Center Towers and Building 7. We believe there is sufficient doubt about the official story and therefore the 9/11 investigation must be re-opened and must include a full inquiry into the possible use of explosives that might have been the actual cause of the destruction of the World Trade Center Twin Towers and Building 7.

Occupation: Pilot-Air Traffic Control Specialist
My career in aviation spanned 38 years. As a pilot and Certified Flight Instructor, I specialized in the most basic concepts of flight which I have long since found is woefully absent from most flying curricula. As an ATCS, I earned OTJ Instructor and OJT Examiner ratings. I have worked in an Air Traffic Control Tower, a Radar Control Facility, an Automated Flight Service station, an air traffic data processing facility (as a system analyst), and in private industry, I worked in an Automated Flight Service Station Hub.
First, as a certified flight instructor, I can say that no pilot with the experience level of the so-called hijackers could have possibly flown ANY of the three flights that struck their targets. As far as collapses of steel structures with enormous amounts of steel re-inforced concrete throughout the structure, I can say that, since 911, I have aquired many, many photographs of such steel structures that burned more than 10 and more than 20 hours at far higher temperatures with far, far less billowing smoke (meaning a hotter and a more well fueled fire). None of these buildings ever collapsed. More importantly, as it clearly visible in the second strike against the South WTC tower, most of the aircraft fuel was expended in the initial contact with the building. And just as liquid jet fuel (kerosene) was observed in the North Tower raining down through the elevator shafts, any kerosene that was not initially ignighted was of little threat to what is possibly the most re-inforced steel structures ever built. Lastly, the famous video of the first airplane to strike the North WTC tower was filmed by the Naudet brothers who, by chance, just happened to be in a place where they would film the alleged B767 striking the North Tower. These brothers also happened to be the perfect position to film the second strike of an alleged B767 sticking the South Tower. However, in BOTH CASES, the Naudet brothers DID NOT film the aircraft in flight, rather, they focused (quite literally) on the strike point that these aircraft would eventually hit. And, as I have been informed, the Naudet brothers were later in the perfect spot to film the collapse of WTC7 which suffered no serious damage prior to its perfect, state-of-the-art collapse into the exact footprint that it architects drew on their original blue prints. And as a final note, although I never acted as an ATCS in an ARTCC (commonly known as an air traffic control center), I am well aware of the responsibilities of these air traffic facilities when an aircraft loses both radio and radar communication. There is no way I could EVER conceive that even a SINGLE passenger jetliner would proceed as long as the first aircraft did, let alone four aircraft. In short, IT DID NOT HAPPEN! Please review 3 ten minute videos that I believe show the most likely scenario of 911 as well as an in depth expose of the Naudet videos that just happened to have had the best shots of the two strikes on the TwinTowers and was also focusing on the collapse at the very moment that the building inexplicable collapsed, and from the best angle that anyone could have wished for to take that video.

There appears to be more reason than not to open this case to the light of independent scrutiny and must be examined and reported accordingly.

Since 2003, worked as a energy efficiency consultant in Belgium and Asia, till 2014 when I became a technical due diligence engineer for the European Investment Bank in Luxembourg.
The WTC destruction changed world politics and gave reasons for politicians to develop very harsh and expensive anti terrorism actions worldwide. It's important for the public to see if these policies, that had and still have very intrusive negative consequences for many world citizens, were based on genuine information and were sound decisions. The public community has the right to have doubts. It is up to authorities to provide valid and strong argumentation to counter these doubts and bring acceptance to the public.

I have a B.S. in Applied Physics from Caltech, and an M.S. in Electrical Engineering and a Ph.D. in Biomedical Engineering both from the University of Michigan. I have two patents and several scientific papers in peer-reviewed journals. I received a prestigious Howard Temin early career grant from the NCI/NIH to fund my research in cancer and biomedical research during the past five years.
I visited NYC the weekend before the 9/11 demolitions and was lucky enough to see the Twin Towers before they disappeared from the landscape. I am fully convinced that Al Qaeda could not have been fully responsible for what happened on 9/11. I have watched 911 Blueprint for Truth and feel it is the most honest, lucid, and probable explanation for how those buildings were destroyed. I do not have any expertise in demolitions, but I understand basic physics concepts such as conservation of energy, conservation of momentum/angular momentum. There must have been additional energy imparted to those structures other than airplane impacts, burning jet fuel, and release of gravitational potential energy in order to take them down in the spectacular shock-and-awe fashion in which they were destroyed.

I earned my BSCE degree from the University of Massachusetts with a major in structures and later an MS degree in civil engineering from Cornell University. After graduation from UMass, I was employed in the field by two of the nation''s largest building construction companies, first the Austin Company (a design/build firm) and later the George A. Fuller Construction Company. The construction of one of the Austin Company building projects was the basis of my master's thesis. I also taught building design and construction related courses to civil engineering and architectural students at Vermont Technical College for twenty years.
In 2006 I became aware of the unprecedented collapse of WTC Building 7 and the Twin Towers at free-fall speed. Professor Steven Jones' video lecture was a stunning revelation and a wake-up call. My experience and further research confirmed the uncomfortable facts as presented by Professor Jones. I also found it disturbing that most politicians seem to have little interest in exploring any theory other than the official jetliners / fires-caused-the-collapses theory. I was told the following in a response letter from one of our representatives in Washington: Regarding conspiracy theories surrounding the September 11, 2001 terrorist attacks on the Pentagon and the World Trade Center, a number of theories questioning the events that occurred on and before September 11, 2001 have circulated. They are patently false. Several videos have been posted on the internet on this subject, and they too are false.... The 9/11 Commission, a bipartisan group of nationally respected individuals, evaluated all relevant testimony and documents related to the events and provided a detailed account of what actually happened on that fateful morning. However, this nationally respected 9/11 Commission failed to include some very important facts and testimonies in their report even though they had to have been aware of them. For example, the 9/11 Commission Report completely omitted the unprecedented collapse of Building 7. Many of the facts and theories that engineers have learned in such courses as structures, physics, chemistry, metallurgy, etc., have held true for longer than the hundred-year history of structural-steel-framed high-rise buildings and they held true on 9/11/01. Only controlled demolition could have provided the types of building collapses displayed three times on that fateful day.

I am an Electrical Engineer in digital control systems controlling fuel injection on internal combustion engines with eleven years' experience.
1. Any material moving upward or horizontally needs force to provide the motion in the corresponding axis of direction. The building was non-moving, then it began to move downward. The force causing the movement is purported to be gravity which only effects movement downward or to the center of the earth. Material found moving away from the center of the earth (upward) is particularly suspect especially if it has a large density when compared to the density of air. If one could distinguish from photographs types of material moving upward with corresponding velocities it would be insightful. 2. Loud noise reaching a distant camera before downward motion of the building is suspect.

I remember seeing the first video that debunked the official story. The scope of the assault terrified me and I would notice that the people I talked to instantly dismissed me as a conspiracy theorist. In one of the many documentaries I have seen, the scientist interviewed said, the problem is that we have been erroneously labelled the conspiracy theorists, but the real culprits are the conspirators who executed and covered up this assault. I truly hope that as Shakespeare said, all things come to light. Hopefully, we won't have to wait for deathbed confessions.

I recall seeing WTC7 fall on TV (just once) either on 9//11 or the day. I was stunned and in disbelief at the perfect fall. That image always stuck in my head that something was amiss. And I knew (because it was reported) that this building was not hit by an airplane. I did not hear or know that it was on fire as now reported. I just knew that many hours after the collapse of WTC 1 & 2 that this seems so implausible. Especially the speed at which it fell. Then I found more folks who held the same questions. Obviously I've heard and read about the non-official story now. It's tragic that honesty is not forthcoming from our officials. Part of that honesty would be to answer seriously the questions posed by AE911Truth and others. I even found at a used book store, 'Triggered' by David Icke - fascinating even if some of his thoughts are too far out there; his sequence of events and players are recorded in great detail and can't be refuted as they are mostly documented by the (MSM) news of the day.

The collapse of the three towers can in no experts opinion be ruled as a top down collapse. The lack of any sideways collapse of a melting steel framed building clearly indicates that the collapse was orchestrated and done with intent to collapse downward. - - Steel buildings will offer immense resistance to downward collapse, simply due to its compilation and construction. - - The collapse of building 7 also is an impossibility with a meagre office fire. - - NIST failed miserably and were most definitely coerced to compile the report that they did. - -

I saw what I saw, and agree with so many others that the destruction of the Towers and WTC 7 fails to fit the narrative of the public officials and media. This was a cover-up and no one can truly tell the public and the world why this was done, and why so many were complicit in doing this.

I apprenticed and became a carpenter in 1981. As well I apprenticed and became a locksmith in 2001. I worked all of that time until 2014 (38 years) with Parkland School Division #70 maintaining and renovating schools as well as helping construct portable classrooms. Shortly before retiring I also became a Fire Door Assembly Inspector through the Door and Hardware Institute.
In about 2008 I heard the events of Sept. 11, 2001 did not happen the way that we had been told and I started reading about and researching those events. This is without a doubt a huge deception (just one of many unfortunately) and the world needs to know the truth of what actually happened that day. Any building, steel frame or wood, 1 story or 47, or more, would never collapse (no other steel buildings have) like building 7 did from just randomly burning fires.

Education was based on the regurgitation of pointless things. Not taught to farm, fix or love my neighbor. These things were self taught.
Basic Jenga game should show people that a tower would not collapse with a hit towards the top then fall straight down on itself like the trade towers did. How were fireman lined up in the streets at the ready? Where is the video of the Pentagon getting hit???

The obvious truth about the controlled demolition of the three sky scrapers in New York on September 9, 2001, and the fact that this truth is suppressed across the world, shows that we, the many who realize this, must do our damnedest to break the world free of this Stasi fog, and work for a free, just, and sustainable world for humanity and nature. I have followed A&E for 911 Truth for many years. What brought me initially to 9/11 Truth was Michael Moore's Fahrenheit 911. Another movie reappraising the 9/11 coup and the 9/11 aftermath this year released online, could push knowledge of the Wall Street/CIA control.

It was obvious to me that the official explanation of why WTC1,2, & 7 collapsed did not make sense on the videos alone.
