Give us the methodology of how they identified any alleged passengers by dental records. You brought it up. It is up to you to describe the methodology used. Otherwise, all you are relying on is hearsay.

If they already knew it was a bomb, why put it back together at all? It is self-evident bombs explode other physical matter and send it flying in all directions.
The aircraft went into a spiral dive, losing about 34,000 feet in 63 seconds. (For comparison, a normal rate of descent for an airliner would be 1800 feet per minute). During the course of the dive, the plane rolled through 360 degrees twice, and crossed the Mach limit for the 727 airframe. It was later estimated from the flight data recorder that the plane was momentarily supersonic. Control was regained at about 5,000 feet, following the #7 slat being torn off from the aircraft and symmetry of lift being re-established. Wiki

Please understand this. Commercial jetliners do not mechanically do mach 1, particularly at sea level, without starting to break up.
Swept back wings have little to do with it. It is nature, plus, mass, weight, design,
High altitude is where mach 1 is reached, for flying objects capable of reaching mach 1, not at sea level or near sea level.
Cabin pressure - NORMAL. Hydraulics - NORMAL. Cargo fire - NORMAL. Smoke - NORMAL. Engines - RUNNING. Engine RPM (N1) 70% . Fuel pressure - NORMAL. Engine vibration - LO. Wind direction - WEST. Wind speed - 25 kts. Pitch angle - 40 deg down. Airspeed - 500 kts. Heading - 180 deg. Roll angle - 150 deg right. AoA - 20 deg negative
They normally always do that. It is SOP for any aircraft crashes. Why should 9/11 be any different?

Qualification - entire design. Is that better now? If you knew aerodynamics as well as you project you do in these discussions, I should not have had to qualify what I meant using the sole word design.
