BTW... if it was not flight 77 that slammed into the Pentagon, where is flight 77?? Where are the passengers of flight 77???
Oh man im glad you brought that up, i was really hoping that dreamer was gonna walk into that one with his hard facts
Here is the thing, 99% of the plane allegedly "evaporated" (2nd time in history, flight 93 was first). The turbine engines... evaported. The tail section evaporated. The wings, evaported. The nose section, well after slamming through 4 rings of 20ft solid concrete and steel leaving a 16ft diameter hole, well u guessed it, it evaportaed too. But, 94% of all the victims were positively identified via DNA samples that you guessed it... were not evaporated.
Oh and the black boxes that were recovered, FBI Director Robert Mueller said that the voice data recorder contained nothing useful (can u fuckin believe this), it would imply that there are no words of the hijackers on the tape, which would once again reinforce our feeling that there is no evidence of hijackers. We'd like to have a independent and reputable expert look at the originals - perhaps what they do or do not contain is useful. Because, i am deeply suspicious of the FBI's withholding or burying all evidence related to Flight 77. Secretary of Defense Rumsfeld said the data on the cockpit voice data recorder was unrecoverable.
If the cockpit voice data recorder was unrecoverable, it would be the first time in aviation history a solid-state data recorder (the type used on Flight 77) was unrecoverable after a crash. From a Scientific American feature article lauding the "Better Black Box" in their September 2000 issue:
Nearly 100,000 flight recorders have been installed in commercial aircraft over the past four decades. The prices of the latest models generally range from $10,000 to $20,000. Their survival rate has greatly improved in recent years as the FAA has raised the certification requirements. Although older recorders using magnetic tape were susceptible to fire damage, no solid-state device has been destroyed in an accident to date.
Lawyers representing 9/11 victim families are attempting to use the Freedom of Information Act to obtain transcripts of the black-box data. See 9/11 Lawyers Seek Black-Box Data on Saudi Hijackers by Tom Flocco, which indicates the FBI are obstructing the NTSB review of the black box data.
Of course, if Flight 77 was not the plane involved in the Pentagon Attack, it's black boxes would presumably show that, and the government would be very reluctant to allow the data to be examined, or allow the NTSB to carry out the investigation of the crash that is required by law.
Too many historical firsts all on the Sept 11, 2001.
