In 20 minutes I could show you how to control a Boeing 737 and fly it into anything you want with Flight Sim. It is that easy, flying is easy, its the landing that's hard. That said I could show you how to land in auto mode.

there we go..from a man who knows.....the people who flew those airplanes into the towers did have basic flying lessons prior to the event and no intent on landing safely.
