russett, here's an excellent aerial photo of the Pentagon which shows that, although the fire was widespread, the impact/explosion itself did not involve more than the outer ring of the building.

As evidenced from the intactness of its windows, it is quite clear from the picture that the second ring of the building is unscathed.

I estimate the distance involved in the impact to be less than the length of a fire-engine! It is certainly not the length of an airliner.

PS. The pic is 2.2meg so it takes quite some time to download.
