Not instantly, no. But over 2 to 3 hours?

Remember, firefighters were able to get up to the floors, they didn't teleport.

kerosene max temp:

The maximum temperature of kerosene burning in an unenriched (air) atmosphere is approximately 3,801 °C (6,874 °F), as determined by the adiabatic flame temperature for kerosene burning with air at standard pressure.

This temperature represents the theoretical peak flame temperature under ideal, complete combustion conditions with no heat loss. In practical applications, such as in a kerosene lamp or heater, the actual flame temperature is lower due to incomplete combustion and heat dissipation; for example, a kerosene lamp flame typically reaches around 1,085 K (811 °C).

The adiabatic flame temperature for kerosene is comparable to other common fuels like gasoline, which burns at about 3,880 °C in air.

steel melting temp:

The melting point of steel is not a single fixed temperature but rather a range, typically between 1370°C (2500°F) and 1510°C (2750°F), due to its composition as an alloy of iron and carbon, along with other elements like chromium, nickel, or manganese.

This range can vary significantly depending on the specific type of steel and its carbon content, with higher carbon levels generally lowering the melting point.

For example, carbon steel melts between 1410°C and 1530°C, while stainless steel melts between 1375°C and 1530°C.

The melting point of steel is highly dependent on its alloy composition, with pure iron melting at approximately 1538°C.

Carbon content is a primary factor; higher carbon content reduces the melting point, as seen in cast iron which melts between 1150°C and 1300°C.

Different types of steel have different melting ranges: tool steel melts around 1420°C, alloy steel between 1415°C and 1432°C, and stainless steel between 1375°C and 1530°C.

Accurate knowledge of the melting range is crucial for manufacturing processes like forging, welding, and casting, where precise temperature control prevents defects and ensures material homogenization.

so, no, under ideal conditions, you could, but that would be in a lab, not in a plane crash into a steel framed building.

the likely temperature of the burning fuel was at best around 800 and the steel would have needed at least 1300 degrees.

what does melt steel very well is thermite cutter charges used in controlled demolition, and some of the melted steel had obvious visible cuts at an angle just like used in controlled demolition.

9-11 was an inside job. they may not have necessarily given the order to the terrorists to do the job but they knew about it and prepped up the building for the show.

Steel framed building? It wasn't steel framed. It had floating floors attached by rivets and wire beams to the frame. The core itself was the elevator shaft.

You do forget that the fires, from burning offices, desks, paper and other things, burnt for 3 hours, all it needed to do was weaken the steel pins that attached the floors to the side skirts.

Given the existence of gravity, the floors cascaded down, increasing mass and velocity.

Inside job? No. Having the information and using it to carry out their own objectives, yes.

We know all this because of the 100's of thousands of agents, investigators and operators + catching the mastermind whose still in Guantanamo bay.

Either every single person who investigated this for over a decade colluded, or it was just an opportunity so they let it happen.

I suggest you go look at the planning, and listen to the guys who worked with Osama in 1997.

Also read the letter.

Osama didn't work on behalf of any agency but they knew he was going to do it and it served their objective of invading Iraq under orders from Nethahyu
