And if those wings were sheared at the body from impact clean off, where are they? It's kind of hard to hide two huge wings. The other good point is how would that plane have been able to penetrate all those walls, maybe the first one but the energy absorption from the first wall should have slowed it down considerably.

Everyone comes to this. There is a video out there of a smaller plane hitting a concrete wall (designed to simulate a plane hittinga nuke reactor). The plane pretty much just dissolves. I think people want to see a hole like a plane make in the WTC. The Pentagon is a tough building. I used to work there. The walls did slow it down considerably. The enery dissapated into the area between the rings (an area big ehough to drive a small truck in between) and then went into the D ring. Dissapated some more and punched through the C ring (middle ring).
I watched them tear down most of that section (which ironically just had been reinforced - go conspiracy theorists) for a couple of weeks and then rebuild it. A LOT of rock and concrete came out of there. Remember, the Pentagon is a military installation and was designed as such (plus metal was being used back in WWII for planes and tanks so they used all the stone). And build ciost plus 10% (or so). My wife worked in the building and from the inside they thought the impact was part of the ongoing constuction. The WTC was an office building in which corners were cut to make a profit (or keep costs down). It was designed to protect harmless accountants and lawyers.
FWIW, I saw the plane acting erratically moments before it hit. I was at point A on the map. And heard it hit a moment later.

Do I hold any particular pride about this? No. I would give nearly anything to not have this memory. And if it hit somewhere else in the building, I might be a single man instead of married with a son.
Just because it didn't unfold on TV, doesn't mean it didn't happen. I hold this offer open to any PPOT conspiracy theorist. I will gladly show you around the area (what we can see) it will hopefully change your mind.
