Airplanes exist so that Soros and Gates can poison us with chemtrails, but the ones you travel in are just simulators used to convince people that Earth is not flat. In reality the cabin is on a truck bed and they just drive you to destination & drug you to make the trip feel shorter.

Some kind of Kerbal-rear end civil aviation where they chonk on a big canister of fuel and overbalance the entire plane, killing everyone.

This also overstates the fuel capacity of a 747 by 44,695 gallons.

Idk why fuel capacity is the new hot poo poo in conspiracies because I keep seeing it everywhere. It really grinds my gears. Here is where the fuel goes. If you're on a flight waiting for take off you can literally look out the window and see some ramp agents pumping the fuel into the plane.



There is the fuel tanks. This being my primary line of work and Boeing passenger craft being my primary babies, I can confirm that all those fuel tanks are in there because I have seen and/or been inside most of them. It seems impossible because the plane is very big and we are very small, so the wings look way too thin from inside, but in fact, there is room. There's also way more cabin than you look at, like where flight attendants sit, where all the booze is, where the luggage is, where the dog you insisted needed to come on your trip is with a ramp agent strapped to the wall keeping them company while you complain about how uncomfy your seat is.

What is even the end goal of planes having extra fake fuel conspiracy? What is being proved? Killary has packed the extra weight with kids for her satanic pizza dungeon? The same thing but it's bloodthirsty ISIS terrorists? It's actually all a lie started by the Wright Brothers and powered flight is not possible?

I gotta stop complaining about this.

You're thinking backwards from their thought process.

If bad things can happen that are outside of anyone's control, that's scary! Instead, it must be the work of some nefarious agents that, while powerful, have the potential to be stopped. As a bonus, I'm now the holder of secret knowledge and therefore special in some capacity.

Therefore, there couldn't be enough fuel on those planes (that still wouldn't melt steel beams) or whatever

Nuh uh, they run on compressed air like giant Air Hogs. Compressed air doesn't use up any volume because it's just air and they can put as much as they want in. It also doesn't cost anything because it's just out there in the atmosphere and poo poo.

I've seen that 'theory'. I've also seen flat earthers pick this up and use it to say "See, the Earth isn't as big as (((They))) say it is - planes don't need 200 tons of fuel to cross the oceans because they're not actually going round the back of the planet. Makes u think!"

It's fun the way conspiracy theories run together, like paints on a canvas left out in the rain.
