Hawkmoon,

Re: namely being sucked INTO the hole the nose of the plane punched all the way into the service driveway between the B and C rings...

Now tell me again about Boeing 757s. They have hardened DU noses so that they can penetrate 20 inches of concrete, and a miraculous ability to simply vaporize 100 tons of aluminum in a kerosene fire, after taking a high G's turn of 270 degrees in order to land on the least occupied portion of the Pentagon, when a direct frontal attack would have landed the craft on the JCS and Field Marshall Rumsfeld.
Yeah, you come across as some kind of an expert.... <ng>

Anyone with the least bit of common sense about aeronautical engineering knows that the rotor of the jet engines is the only object that would be capable of penetrating a massive concrete barrier. The nose of the jet would simply crumple like a soda can being stomped on. You're not fooling anyone with your explanation.

********
You should compare your disingenuousness with the most damning aspect of the Kean Commission declaration of non-compliance by the Executive Branch yesterday. This is a huge red flag that needs to be exposed to the light of day. This stinks to high heaven:

In their statement, Mr. Kean and Mr. Hamilton said that the "problems that have arisen so far with the Department of Defense are becoming particularly serious." They noted that the Pentagon had not responded to a series of requests for evidence from several Defense Department agencies, including the Joint Chiefs of Staff and the North American Aerospace Defense Command, which is responsible for guarding American airspace from terrorist attack.

LOL!

The silliness of the "missile theory" is so patently obvious.....only those like Raybo and that ilk would give it a second thought....it must be tough to live in a world full of all the nefarious conspiracies Raybo imagines.....I almost feel sorry for him......

yeah, and I guess that my (then) co-worker who died on that plane is just taking an extended vacation and she'll be showing up at the office real soon.
