That entire space where you marked red should be clear and open and nothing there, and you are gone too far to the right. Why do you think they are fallen floor slabs, did you read this somewhere?
I call them floor slabs because I can see they are floor slabs. What do you think they are?
Let me explain it to you as simply as i can:
Column hold up lintel beam.
Lintel beam hold up floor.
Plane come knock out columns, break lintel beam.
Lintel beam fall.
Floor fall.
Part of floor not fall because steel rebar inside concrete.
Red arrow right... floor slab.
Understand?
I highlighted the areas that are columns in red, i highlighted in green, the area that could be what you said. To the right those are columns one is is untouched and another looks bit twisted. If a 126 feet plane smashed through there why are those columns still standing?
Do a little research, they maybe hanging. The bases of the columns maybe broken. The pentagon collapsed for a reason.

The hard thing for me to wrap my head around is not WHETHER Hani could execute a 500 mph gradual dive into the Pentagon. But rather.......... why would he?
If I were doing a suicide attack, that I only get one chance at. Where I know I will probably be nervous (since it is the last few seconds before I die.) ....
I would choose the simplest maneuver I could. The goal would be a fail safe, guaranteed hit. That way you're not taking a chance you might kill yourself for nothing.
On the other hand, if I were a conspirator, programming a computer to hit the Pentagon, why not maximize speed? I know the computer won't get nervous.

It doesn't matter what year it is. The Global Hawk engine didn't change much. Even at 41 inches that turbine is too big once you add the blades to the diameter.

I already agreed with you, a ready made globalhawk is likely incorrect! I said though if there was a conspiracy could they have back- engineered something like the Globalhawk?

If the entire engine is 38 inches, the turbine wheel is going to be somewhere around half that. It's far too small for that wheel.
This event is 2001, not 2017. I read online the engine was 41 inches, around that time. You have a point size probably does rule out the globalhawk.. Then again was the globalhawk modified (outside and inside) to resemble a 757? This is just wild speculation of course, but who knows.

Diving a 757 like that would have almost certainly resulted in him missing the Pentagon completely. A vertical dive is one of the hardest things to do.

How would that not be more expensive than simply procuring a plane?

Why when there was a group of terrorists set on a suicide mission to crash a stolen jet into the pentagon. No engineering, expenditure, and no traceable equipment required.

Yes, Middle East governments funded and enabled a culture of jihad that lead to a suicide mission at the pentagon.

Funny, there are whole armies that gained lots of territory in the Middle East.
College kids run the Middle East?

Except for bank records, money transfer records, accounting records with the vendors, the audit records, credit card records, the filed pentagon contracts, and all the records at the treasury department fulfilling pentagon money obligations. Ever hear of offsite backup?
I'm not American, i am European citizen.. I not all that familiar with American airports.
When i worked for private security firms, i met America guys working different jobs.One of those guys was a remote viewer. He told about he's 9/11 remote viewing session and, what he saw and, he's employed by the Department of Defense. It could be all bull#, and i don't if remote viewing is 100 per cent accurate, or even 50 per cent?
Exit hole and Hani and the broken columns those 3 parts are the most difficult to explain.
How does a vaporizing plane push through 3 rings of concrete and exit a hole with no plane wreckage on that other end?

Rich, priviledged, snot nosed college kids.
Most of the Taliban's army would be peasants with no hope of making a living except by doing what their warlords say. But the Hamburg cell was made up of kids who had German visas even before they joined the Jihad.
The type who don't need financial aid to pay their tuition.
