From a 2014 report to Congress on Nuclear Plant Security and Vulnerabilities -
https://fas.org/sgp/crs/homesec/RL34331.pdf
"Nuclear power plant vulnerability to deliberate aircraft crashes has been a continuing issue. After
much consideration, NRC published final rules on June 12, 2009, to require all new nuclear
power plants to incorporate design features that would ensure that, in the event of a crash by a
large commercial aircraft, the reactor core would remain cooled or the reactor containment would
remain intact, and radioactive releases would not occur from spent fuel storage pools."
Also, you apply that logic to a nuclear plant but not to climate change? Grow up. One of them is far more dangerous to all of us.
