So you're telling me that almost 200,000 pounds ISN'T going to go through concrete with a little kevlar in it? Well hell why don't we use that for EVERY concrete building ever built then.

where is the rest of the plane? looks like the rest of it, or most of it didn't make it into the shot. If I took a photo of a car going by and only caught the rear bumper then where is the rest of the car?
This only makes the 757 argument most suspicious>>>
Its hidden but the tail can be seen.
To all the people on here that dont think Flight 77 hit the Pentagon. Then what happened to the plane? Where are the passengers?
Ive never heard an interview with any of the passengers saying that they landed ok and werent involved in a hijacking.

Then explain how that bizjet punched through the wall at low speed. Or the Continental MD-80 that punched through the terminal wall while doing an engine run. And that one was barely moving. Both of those punched through with ease, but a 757 moving at 500+ mph is going to just crumple and end up on the lawn?

You know what, I am amazed...I cant believe that many of you think that the plane never crashed into the pentagon....this was no conspiracy, thsi was a tragedy, being retired from the navy as a corpsman i can assure you that the plane did crash into the pentagon. As a corpsman i work in the emergency room and all day all I could hear was reports from my friends who were working in vicinity hospitals that casualties were taken to. Why does everything have to be a conspiracy with some of you people. I think some ofyou have no respect for any of the people injured in this accident or their families. You can debunk this and that but why try to create falsities in this story when thousand sof americans, and even non-americans in different countries saw the aftermath of this tragedy. Thats alot of money to make a conspiracy world wide....I think many of you people have to much time on their hands, and i take it as a personal insult as a veteran that some of you guys would try to say this was a lie, I hope you dont try saying that what happened on 9/11 was a hoax as well, cause then i think i might just have to pay you a visit.....I served my country, ive seen more tragedy than you can shake a stick at, i deserve to speak....what have you guys done?

First of all I have never seen a 757 flying 30 yards off the ground at full speed and probably never will. The maximum speed below 10000 feet set by the FAA is a paltry 250 knots (287 m.p.h.) Not to nitpick but it is highly unlikely flight 77 was going 500 m.p.h. when it collided with the pentagon. Above 350 knots indicated airspeed (402 mph) the aircraft becomes very difficult to control go a little higher and small parts start falling off. A little higher yet and very large important parts begin to leave.
Here is a pic of what happenes to an aluminum airframe hitting the ground and obsitciles, so if the witnesses at the Pentagon said the plane hit the ground first how did it make it all the way through the walls.
Model number: 757-200
Classification: Commercial transport
Span: 124 feet 10 inches
Length: 155 feet 3 inches
Gross weight: 255,000 pounds
Top speed: 609 mph
Cruising speed: 500 mph
Range: 3,200 to 4,500 miles
Ceiling: 42,000 feet
Power: Two 37,000- to 40,100-pound-thrust RB.211 Rolls-Royce or 37,000- to 40,100-pound-thrust 2000 series P&W engines
Accommodation: 200 to 228 passengers

Ultima, if they are hard to control over 350KIA and fall apart just over that (402mph) then maybe you can explain how the 757 has a CRUISING SPEED of 500mph. That sure seems to be quite a bit over your 402mph figure. They also have a TOP SPEED of 600mph. Again, seems quite a bit higher there.
