Someone I know who was at the Pentagon that day saw the landing gear on the lawn. Go figure.
Maybe the families of the victims who were on the mystery plane would take issue with such an absurd movie.
Maybe the air-traffic controllers who tracked the plane would take issue with such an absurd Internet legend.
Maybe the Matrix has you...

Is this the same Pentagon missile crap? For god's sake isn't this the umpteenth time it's been posted and refuted in about 20 different threads? Please stop posting this crap ...

Not to try to steal your lightning or anything, but most of the news article links in your post there are dead now.

One major issue was that the crash was not like other crashes. Usually if their is some major problem but the pilots have some control they try to land, which means they slow down and are not going anywhere near 550 mph (which is probobly about how fast this plane was going). Even if they pilots don't have control in a crash, if the crash happens close to the ground (either landing or taking off) then the plan is still going a whole lot slower. If something happens and the plane is up at 40,000 feet it usually breaks up and is spread over a larger area then what happened at the pentagon. This is why the wreckage looked so different from other crashes and that is why it did not slide along the ground for a couple hundred yards, they were aiming for the building afterall.
Also with the whole in the builing with no wings... The fusalage is essentially one big piece with the wings attached. Therefore it does not surprise me at all that this is a weakest point when it goes slaming through a wall. Also, the fusalage has a whole lot more mass and therefore has more kinetic energy than the wings.

Well explained Auujay.
I can't believe these conspiracy theorists are so naive.
The reason the 911 investigation commitee didn't discuss it? ummmm... is because they aren't stupid?? political yes. but not stupid. all avionics studies and crash investigation at the pentagon was done long ago. It hasn't even been an issue until these idiots(consp theorists) started confusing the public with their own stupidity. I'll call the people who believe it Michael Moore's sheep. But maybe the ppl who started it aren't stupid maybe they are linked to Kerry's campaign secretly hmmmm.....see I can speculate like all you sheep too. lol.
