The document I quoted said 50 columns damaged, which your image shows. Yet again, you SEE 4 damaged columns, that doesn't mean only 4 were damaged.

The problem is the engines don't hang almost 9 feet like you keep claiming.

You obviously have not done your research. 50 columns have to do with i asked you? The plane broke 8 columns, first floor. I showed you why that's not possible and you agreed? So is the government version of events not a lie then?

I would think you would be happy by the fewer number of broken columns? The less columns broke, the more proof flight 77 broke apart for violating speed limits as you argued before hitting the pentagon.

And yet you keep bringing up 8 feet 10 inches every time you mention the engine hanging below the wing. Which has nothing to do with anything.

Columns don't have to be removed to be severely damaged.

I am just pointing out that if the wings and fuselage were structural comprised do to exceeding speed limits, the few the broken columns indicates the more correct you were in flight 77 was braking apart...... or did you not argue flight 77 should have structural failure?

I already did the math, but apparently you didn't agree with it or read it.
Once again, the maximum diameter of the RB211 is 8 feet 1 inch. It's 7 feet 9 inches from the ground to the bottom of the fuselage. It's 2 feet 5 inches to 2 feet 10 inches to the bottom of the engine from the ground, depending on load.
Do the math.

They are broken, OR missing. The exact quote from that page is : Impacted. Missing, broken, disconnected, or otherwise without remaining function.
So it doesn't say they were all missing, but that they were no longer structurally intact. That means that they may have been there, but were no longer capable of supporting a load.
