Oswald in the doorway: the blog of the Oswald Innocence Campaign, by Ralph Cinque

No, Backes; it was me ridiculing Charles Bulingame. It's the official story of 9/11 that ridicules him, and I am extremely resentful about it. This guy was tough. He was specfically described as tough. It's the word people used:

 THE TOUGH PILOT
The first thing to recognize when evaluating the official Flight 77 story is that the plane's pilot was a former military man, and a genuinely tough guy. Captain Charles "Chic" Burlingame had graduated from the United States Naval Academy in 1971. He served eight years on active duty as a fighter pilot, and served several tours at the Navy's elite Top Gun school. He then spent 17 years in the Naval Reserve before retiring from the military in 1996. [1] During his military career, he had tours in Vietnam and the 1991 Gulf War. [2] His sister Debra Burlingame described him as "a guy that's been through SERE [Survival Evasion Resistance Escape] school in the Navy and had very tough psychological and physical preparation." She said, "If there was any chance of saving [Flight 77], this was the kind of guy who would have been able to do that." [3] Admiral Timothy Keating was a good friend of Burlingame's, having been a classmate of his in the Navy and attended flight school with him. He told CNN: "I was in a plebe summer boxing match with Chic, and he pounded me. ... Chic was really tough." [4] Even up to his death Burlingame enjoyed boating, in-line skating, and weightlifting, and was "in great shape," according to his friend Steve Brooks. [5]

There is NO WAY Charles Burlingame turned that plane over to those terrorists. No fucking way! Do you hear me? That is the biggest crock of bull shit I have ever heard in my life. 

And you know who agrees with me? Chic's brother Mark:

 “I don’t know what happened in that cockpit, but I’m sure that they would have had to incapacitate him or kill him because he would have done anything to prevent the kind of tragedy that befell that airplane.” Mark Burlingame

And I'm sure the same could be said for every other pilot who flew a 9/11 plane. Pilots don't do that. Ever. 

Charles Burlingame was specifically trained in anti-terrorist techniques, including fighting techniques, which he taught at the Pentagon. 

Furthermore, there is evidence that the cockpit door wasn't even breached. But, even if it was, the notion that terrorists took out Charles Burlingame and his co-pilot David Charlebois before they could even activate a distress signal is preposterous.
