So the pentagon released the security tape of AA flight 77 hitting the pentagon. I strongly disagree with that since below is a pic of a AA 757 and it looks nothing like what is shown in the video.
And here's an overlay of the two images that show the objects hitting the pentagon.
Compare the color of that object to the color scheme of an American Airlines plane. Notice how they're both light on top and bottom with a dark strip in the center?
People do believe that t small commuter plane which could be a AASaab 340 or a Embraer Rejional Jet may have hit the pentagon instead. A 757 would appear much bigger in the video.
Perhaps you're underestimating the Pentagon's size: it's roughly 80 feet tall. A 757's fuselage (i.e. the part that did the damage) is around 15ft. Also, a small jet would not have gone as far into the building as a 757 would.
Its my opinion. The little white plane that you see in the corner is MUCH smaller than a 757. I dont know if any of you have ever seen or been on a 757 in person but its much bigger.
The size of the object in the video and the hole made in the Pentagon are consistent with that of a Boeing 757. The object is relatively far off in the distance, and the Pentagon looks much shorter than it actually is due to its width.
Lets also not forget the huge peices of um... how do a put this Boeing 757 aircraft that where laying around the building.
How about the reports from the rescuers that recalled body parts of crew members, oh and lets not forget the black box as well.
Next your going to tell us that 9/11 never really happened.

American Eagle only operates those types of planes, The Saab 340 was retired from American Eagle i want to say in 1999.
they say that there is no possible way that a 757 crashed into the building because of the size of the hole and that there would have been skid marks from the plane hitting the ground.. and the highway right across the street from the pentegon... the light poles on the interstate would have been knocked down.. which they werent.....
So let me get this straight, you are telling us, that The Pentagon did not get hit by a Boeing 757, The people on that plane which was a scheduled revenue flight, with real people, didnt get hijacked, didnt crash into the pentagon and all this was a government conspericy?
If so, what happened to the people in the plane? The Plane itself? its pretty damn hard to "lose" a Boeing 757. How about all the parts of the plane littering the ground around the pentagon, The black box, the crew's charred clothing.
The fact that several eye-wintnesses including airmen from the Air National Guard eye witnessed the whole thing unfold.
So many facts, yet your ignorance to this is astounding.
Im not saying it didnt happen, but its kind of wierd how a 757 makes a whole 1/2 the size of it when it went flying int the pentagon at 500 mph. ANd what kind of fire destroys an entire plan but doesnt destroy the bodies and clothing?
1/2 the size according to who? Some Spanish website, that doesnt state the facts and figures around the crash?
The plane slammed into the pentagon at 530 mph, thats like running a coke can over with an 18-wheeler. The plane created a 75 foot diameter crater into the side of the building. That 15 foot hole you mention is from the planes landing gear.
Haha, I'm a conspiracy believer on the Pentagon subject.
Galvan, eyewitness accounts don't do much. Especially when there were about 5 different stories for each thing that happened that day.
Why couldn't they release the tapes from high atop the Hyatt? or the Gas Station across the street? or from the Highway Cams?
This tape has been released for quite some time, and it pretty useless.
Until we see a better tape, none of us can do anything besides speculate.
There's a whole way of proving it with physics and such but well. Let's not get into this.
If anybody wants me to get into this, just go right ahead and ask me.
Until then.
