I'll give a partly butchered excerpt of my page 6 post about the times involved, to show a weird 45 seconds discrepancy which I can't explain
away.

Let us try first to get something very important cleared, and mutually accepted.
The time from O'Brien's identification of the plane tagged LOOK as a B757, until impact; and subsequently the speeds involved. And we
know quite well how both planes flew, in what pattern, when we just follow the officially given details, be it reluctantly given after FOIA requests
and a still pending court case.
--snip--
This above officially endorsed PDF-document's TYSON (Washington National tower) timeline gives a time of 13:36:29 UTC = 09:36:29 EST, when
""GOFER06 advised it looked like a B757."" That's the C-130 pilot O'Brien who said it.
The TYSON audio tape excerpt I made myself gave a (now revised 14 secs by me, see further on) time stamp of 09:37:14 EST.
Tape starts at 09:25:00 , and we hear O'Brien say "a 757" at 00:12:14 in the (actual) tape.
I left the clearly different time stamps of O'Brien's "B757" remark, the official text excerpt time of 09:36:29 EST and my audio tape time
noted at 09:37:14 EST, unanswered to see if someone came up with an explanation.
The readers have however missed this huge 45 seconds discrepancy.
Of course readers should ask themselves how it could be possible that an officially released audio tape differs 45 seconds from an officially released
textual excerpt from the same tape.
Since I supposed that the actual time between the textual reported events in the tape's excerpts were not altered, but only differed 45 seconds from
the audio revealed events, I noted in my post's last line that it had no influence on my calculated air speeds.
No matter what explanation, it is a very weird mistake.
Don't make the mistake to mix up the female voice segments times (at start of both tapes), to try to explain those 45 seconds away.
DCA audio tape female voice introductory lasts 46 seconds.
TYSON audio tape female voice introductory lasts 14 seconds :

and at 12:04 in the tape, which starts at 09:25:00 EST you can
HEAR the "757" remark.
That's an official 757 remark time of
09:37:14 EST.
And this is the textual, TYSON tape partial transcript :

where you can
READ the same official "757" remark, but now at
09:36:29 EST.
