Okay. There were a lot of people who saw it. It's no big secret that something crashed into the building. There was a projectile, and a loud crash and an explosion. The shock wave of the hit broke a lot of windows at the pentagon. No one doubts that something hit the pentagon. What we are talking about is that there probbly wasn't a 757 that hit the pentagon. Any structural engineer can tell you that the stats released about the crash (i.e. the speed of the plane, the distance from the ground, the damage) doesn't make any sense. The boeing 757-200 (the plane said by the government to be responsible) carries about 290 people and is about 220,000 pounds takeoff. Standard info. The firefighters reached the site very quickly and found very very little wrekage. A 220,000 pound plane leaves wrekage. If you want to argue that it was destroyed in the explosion, then why wasn't the building destroyed with it? There's more.

What is important is to remember, or learn, that the nose of this plane has something called a crashdome. This is the area of the plane that is below and infront of the cockpit; the area that would first impact. This crashdone is where the plane stores electronic navigation equiptment. To enable the transmission of signals, the nose is not made of metal, but carbon. It's shape has been designed to be aerodynamic but it is not crash resistant. The inside casting, as well as its contents, are extremly fragile. The nose would crash on impact with an obstacle, not penatrate it. You NEVER find a nose in a crashsite that involves a head on colision (the type in this case). THEREFORE, it is impossible that this carbon nose punshed a perfect 2.5 yard diameter circular hole in the steel reinforced buildings. This is not improbable, it's impossible. Because of the colapsing nose, the 747-200 would have demolished the building. The momentary spread of pressure on the building would have been like hitting the hand with a hammer. It would have broken bones. In reality, the aircraft that really hit the building punctured, and later the outer uilding colapsed. The only way to puncture instead of demolish is to localize the pressure to a smaller area. Going back to the hand anaolgy, you'd need a nail on the hammer to puncture the hand and go through. What kind of aricraft has a nose that is narrow and strong enough for this?

A missle. Missiles have heads that are much stronger than aircraft noses. They are made from depleted uranium and are designed for penetration. Depleted uranium is an extremely dense metal that friction heats up, increasing its penetrative capacities. Such missiles are particularly used to enter bunkers. An aircraft crashes and breaks apart whereas a missile of this type will penetrate its target.Many missles used throughout the world, let alone by the US, have decorations and colors that very closly resemble the colors of commercial airliners.

Fire fighters attest to having seen part of a plane that they identify, albeit with difficulty, as an aircraft nose. The nose of an aircraft, however, would not survive such an accident. The three buildings could not have been penetrated by the nose of a Boeing. However, a missile head made of depleted uranium could well have been capable of such damage.

My conclusion, wrkime, to your post is this: either your friend saw something fly by very fast that looked like if could have been a commercial plane, or you're friend was lying, or you don't have any friends.

I choose to beleive the former.
