Surely they left SOME KIND OF MARK. Just show me 124 feet of some kind of marking and I'll be happy, I'm not trying to debunk this in favor of any theory.

I still, STILL HAVE NOT, seen sufficient information, on how, and why, the body of a plane can make a hole like that in a building, YET there's no horizontal marks or ANYTHING from the wings!!!
Show me where 124 feet 10 inches of wingspan strike the Pentagon. I know something hit the Pentagon, but I just want to SEE some impression from the wings.
When American Airlines Flight 77 hit the Pentagon's exterior wall, Ring E, it created a hole approximately 75 ft. wide, according to the ASCE Pentagon Building Performance Report.
Why wasn't the hole as wide as a 757's 124-ft.-10-in. wingspan? A crashing jet doesn't punch a cartoon-like outline of itself into a reinforced concrete building, says ASCE team member Mete Sozen, a professor of structural engineering at Purdue University. In this case, one wing hit the ground; the other was sheared off by the force of the impact with the Pentagon's load-bearing columns, explains Sozen, who specializes in the behavior of concrete buildings.

I wasn't looking for a 757 shaped punch-out in the wall. Thank you Keyhole, at least you can be reasoned with. That is an acceptable answer.

I didn't say they broke off. And they didn't get dragged into the hole. It's much easier to go with disintegration with something travelling so fast, thus my questioning of some sort of visual damage 124 feet wide, was so kindly answered by Keyhole.

Also, from where I read somewhere before, it was the right wing that hit the ground. You can see in this picture again

in the lower right hand corner, above the green tent, is a generator that the jet engine apparntly hit and damaged

Now wait a minute, shouldn't it have been the left wing?

I f you move your pointer to the bottom roght corner of the picture you can enlarge it, the damaged generator is between the firetruck and the green tent.
I don't remember when I read this them mentioning what wing it was, but they showed pictures of the damaged generator, and there it is.
