I've always wondered what would happen to this tower if say a Cessna or even something bigger hit it accidentally. Doesn't seem like it could take much force impacting it with it being so skinny.

The concrete shear walls on each side are huge. I doubt a cessna would do much at all other than facade damage if it hit the sides.

It's too thin for anything bigger than a Cessna to hit it!
