On the 16th of January 2002, a Boeing 737-300 belonging to an Indonesian Airline had both its engines flamed out - a term to describe that the jet engines had failed. It happened as it commenced its descend to 9000 feet through thunderous clouds that were filled with rain.
The crew then tried to relight the engines but it failed to revive. Compared to a Boeing 777 where the relighting process is automatic, the Boeing 737 did not appear to have this more advanced facility. In addition to this, on a Boeing 777, the APU will automatically light up as well when it senses both engine failures. The APU or the auxiliary power unit is a small jet engine that is located in the tail section and powers the electricity and air-conditioning of the airplane.
Engineers were unable to determine the exact cause of the failure

What is your relevant point concerning alleged Flight 93 for comparison, as to which angles planes come in for landing or impact?
What a difference between the alleged crash outside Shanksville and that plane. Water is very hard on those type of nose dives. I can even see that it definitely a commercial jetliner. No doubt about it.
High speed impact belly flops are far more destructive on any construction. Be it a plane, human body or anything else.

Do you desire to tell that to the experienced pilot responding to a question, whose words I cited and gave proper due credit?

Also any evidence that the bodies from Flight 93 were at the crash site?

I take it you do not understand the severe differences between highly similar causes and blatantly dissimilar effects that should not have happened. Is that it?
If you land on your belly in the water, will it affect you differently than diving in at an angle? Yes or no will do.

Again, it is your job to validate not your opponents'. You link to proof of your opinion hearsay. You do not tell your opponents to prove your points of argument for you.

What would a team of NASA scientists from Houston be doing traveling on a KC-135?
At NASA's Johnson Space Center, there is a microgravity research aircraft, a KC-135 Low-G Flight Research aircraft (a predecessor of the Boeing 707) which is typically used for refueling military aircraft. The four-engine turbojet has been modified to meet NASA's needs to train astronaut and conduct microgravity research. The biggest difference is the way that it is used to fly parabolas to create 20-25 seconds of weightlessness so that the astronauts can experience and researchers can investigate the effects of "zero" gravity. The gut wrenching effects have earned this aircraft its famous nickname: "The Vomit Comet."
As NASA's lead center for microgravity research in the areas of fluid physics and combustion science, Glenn hosts the KC-135 for 6-10 weeks each year in support of its ground-based microgravity research. Some flights include astronauts participating in crew training so that they can have low-g experience with experiment hardware prior to shuttle missions.
