So, Ryan do you still think a plane hit the Pentagon ? https://substack.com/@asitis28/note/c-272379490

À plane DID hit Pentagon. Doesnt matter what anybody thinks..

One has to ask themselves several questions about 9/11 in order to grasp the reality of the event. Christopher Bollyn has done the absolute best logical critique of the day and those who benefited the most....but even the SOCRATIC METHOD isn’t applicable for the 2 1/2 decades of utter fraud we have witnessed since that date. Do you know that the "PATRIOT ACT" was implemented because of 9/11 ?

9/11 truthers focus on Pentagon aircraft discrepancies primarily because the physical evidence at the crash site appears inconsistent with the impact of a large commercial airliner like Boeing 757 (Flight 77). Their arguments generally center on three main pillars:

1. Lack of Visible Debris

A primary contention is the scarcity of large aircraft wreckage visible in photographs taken immediately after the attack. Truthers argue that a 100-ton aircraft should have left significant debris (wings, tail, fuselage sections, engines) on the lawn or outside the building. Instead, early photos showed a relatively clean lawn with only small fragments, leading groups like Pilots for 9/11 Truth to question where the "60 tons of aluminum" went. They contrast this with typical crash sites where large recognizable parts often survive.

2. Damage Patterns and Hole Size

Skeptics argue that the hole in the Pentagon's facade was too small to accommodate a Boeing 757, which has a 125-foot wingspan and a 44-foot tail height. They claim the initial puncture (often cited as roughly 16–18 feet wide before the upper floors collapsed) could not have been made by the main fuselage and wings of a 757 without leaving distinct wing-tip or tail strikes on the exterior walls, which they argue are absent in photos. Additionally, they point to the intact windows directly above the impact zone as evidence that a large winged aircraft could not have passed through at ground level.

3. Flight Path and Aerodynamics

Groups like Pilots for 9/11 Truth have analyzed released black box data and radar tracks to argue that the official flight path is aerodynamically impossible. Their specific claims include:

Altitude: Data suggests the aircraft was too high to have clipped the reported lamp posts or hit the building's first floor.

Ground Effect: They argue that flying a large jet at high speed (500+ mph) just feet above the ground is physically impossible due to "ground effect," which would cause the plane to rise violently rather than stay low.

Maneuverability: The steep spiral descent and level approach required to hit the Pentagon are described as beyond the capability of a hijacker with limited flight training, or even impossible for the aircraft type under those conditions.
