The Pentagon plane in particular flew at low alititudes for several mile. Given that's the plane we've focused exclusive attention on, I don't see why the 32,000 number is relevant considering that the plane took off from Dulles and the hijacking occurred roughly 15 to 20 minutes afterwards. That's not enough time for a 757 to climb to 32,000
feet under normal circumstances. The hijackers would have no reason to climb and every reason to dive.

The phone call at 32000 feet, i thought came from Flight 93.

That's a pretty telling picture. It's pretty obviously a piece of an American Airlines plane (most likely from the tail). There's lots of debris spread across the background closer to the building. Unless you're going to tell me that somone trucked in that piece, planted it on the lawn and called over the photographer to take a picture of it, I've got to call this particular detail debunked.

That does look like a piece of the plane...very convenient. It reminds me of the indestructible passport of one of the alleged terrorist that was found about four blocks away from the WTC. They can find a booklet of paper that was in an area of
2000 degree temperature but can't find enough of the plane to reassemble from that crash.
