So where is the plane?

I receive a lot of strange information from a wide variety of sources. Some of it is
intriguing. Some of it is flat-out weird. I try (and frequently fail) to temporarily set
aside my own personal prejudices to objectively as possible consider the merits of
both the intriguing and weird.

Recently, an interesting French website has been asking questions about the crash
of American Airlines Flight 77, which reportedly crashed into the Pentagon on Sept.
11.

The conventional wisdom has been inculcated into us that there were four terrorist
hijacked airplanes that tragic day. But there are refutations for each of the official
scenarios floating around. The conspiracy theory industry hasn't been this jazzed
since the JFK assassination.

However, in the shadow of the creative writing, multi-phased propaganda and bovine
excrement, there are several questions that at least should be asked and answered.

The lie can be maintained only for such time as the State can shield the people from
the political, economic and/or military consequences of the lie. It thus becomes vitally
important for the State to use all of its powers to repress dissent, for the truth is the
mortal enemy of the lie, and thus by extension, the truth becomes the greatest
enemy of the State.
­ Dr. Joseph M. Goebbels

The French website has pictures of the Pentagon from Sept. 11. I looked at the
pictures shown and, frankly, (despite my visceral reluctance to buy into another
conspiracy) can't answer the questions raised. Maybe our readers can? Click on the
French link and let us know what you think. I have also viewed the MSNBC footage
over two dozen times and I still can't see the plane. Can you?



1. The first satellite image shows the section of the building that was hit by the
Boeing. In the image, the second ring of the building is also visible. It is clear that the
aircraft only hit the first ring. The four interior rings remain intact. They were only fire-
damaged after the initial explosion.

How can a Boeing 757-200 ­ weighing nearly 100 tons and traveling at a minimum
speed of 250 miles an hour ­ only have damaged the outside of the Pentagon?



2. The next two photographs show the building just after the attack. The aircraft
apparently only hit the ground floor. The four upper floors collapsed toward 10:10
am. The building is 78 feet high.

How can a plane 44.7 feet high, over 155 feet long, with a wingspan of almost 125
feet and a cockpit almost 12 feet high, crash into just the ground floor of this
building?



3. Look at the photograph of the lawn in front of the damaged building.

Where is the debris? Any debris! Did it all disintegrate on contact?



4. There are photographs, which show representations of a Boeing 757-200
superimposed on the section of the building that was hit.

What happened to the wings of the aircraft? Why isn't there any wing damage?



5. One journalist asked: "Is there anything left of the aircraft at all?" At a press
conference the day after the tragedy, Arlington County Fire Chief Ed Plaugher said,
"First of all, the question about the aircraft, there are some small pieces of aircraft
visible from the interior during this fire-fighting operation. I'm talking about, but not
large sections."

The follow-up question asked, "In other words, there's no fuselage sections and that
sort of thing?" Plaugher replied, "You know, I'd rather not comment on that. We have
a lot of eyewitnesses that can give you better information about what actually
happened with the aircraft as it approached. So we don't know. I don't know."

Wait a minute! Time after time (Oklahoma City bombing, TWA Flight 800, Flight 93
et al.) we are told not to depend on eyewitnesses?

When asked by a journalist: "Where is the jet fuel?" The chief responded, "We have
what we believe is a puddle right there that the … what we believe is to be the nose
of the aircraft."



Notwithstanding the collective myopia in not being able to see what we are being
told, there are more questions.

One pilot wrote, "I flew the Boeing 747 jumbo jet, but not this 757 … from what I see
(or don't see) looking at these pictures, it's hard to pick out aircraft parts:

The wingtip alone would have sheared off and bounced back into the street, the two
engines would have penetrated deeper into the wall and framing structure further
than any other part making a definite hole.
The belly of the aircraft contains, fuel tanks, baggage, mailbags, and cargo; none of
this type debris can be seen.
Assuming 8,600 gallons of kerosene fuel at a specific gravity of approx 6.9 lbs/gal
(temperature considered) weight of the fuel would be close to 60,000 lbs and would
splatter everywhere.
Where are the seats, those with passengers buckled in would be ripped out of the
floor, for that matter, where are the passengers?
I have never seen an aircraft accident where the aircraft evaporated upon impact,
water, land or buildings.
If these pictures were taken within 3 days after 9-11, there would have been definite
remains of parts. I don't see any.

Whatever inexplicable anomalies exist, the passengers on Flight 77 died that tragic
day. Barbara Olson called her husband from Flight 77 and told him about the
hijacking in progress. There was most certainly an American Airlines Flight 77 with
real people on board, and families in grief.

What did happen to the plane? Where is it?
