ULTIMA....you've been a crew chief in the Air Force, right? Or, if not exactly correct, what I just wrote, feel free to correct me....
Here's a point I'd like to make, when we refer to airplane wheels. There are always a bunch of wheels and tires, already made-up and ready to mount, sitting around at every airline's maintenance base, or what I mean, at airports where the airline has its own maintenance.
This, so in case a wheel needs a change, it is available so as to minimize delays. These are not tracked by S/N, they are wheels and tires specified for the airplane....BTW, the brake discs are different, but this stuff is checked before EVERY flight, by a walk-around conducted by a pilot, and in a MX base, by a mechanic as well.
Not rocket science, but safety, safety, safety, checks and balances....

Show me 8 wheel rims, the "Black Box" recorder and why the two turbines did not leave a scratch to the left and right of the impact hole and I will reconsider my conclusion that it was not a 757 or any kind of airliner that hit the Pentagon. However, even if it was not a missle that hit the Pentagon, even if they didn't gather and hide the evidence, even if our government aren't the liars, cheats, thieves and murderers I believe they are, where are the passengers? Where are the bodies and blood everywhere? And if a 757 hit the Pentagon and did so little damage, then how is it simular planes brought down two buildings made of steel like the twin towers.

There are many arguments discerning this topic. They have seemed to found enough evidence to prove it was in fact the 737; found were a couple struts and most of the wheels.
So we are almost 100% sure it was two 737s, but I've heard a lot of questions:
- Was there significance behind the number of the plane or something specific in the plane?
- Why two planes?

The main probelm is we still have no official reports that match any of the parts found to any of the 9/11 aircraft.
Also none of the photos of the parts at the Pentagon have any information like who took them, when and where.

Sorry, double-speak....so I guess somewhere I thought you said something about one of my posts, and I was quite wrong, so I apologize for any misunderstanding.
The tail of plane should have hit above the impact hole, but clearly, there was no damage to the area above the hole.
The tail should have hit up to the third, or even fourth floor.
The windows are still intact at this point.
A Boeing 757 is about 20-25 ft wide (fuselage) about 150ft long and over 150ft wing tip to wing tip. The tail section is 40ft tall.
Where is the Plane ? It surely did not squeeze into that small hole shown. Given a standard 4ft wide window size the opening here is 16 to 18ft. (and YES this is only a guess, I do not have the actual size on hand), but go to your closest window and measure it.
The columns are about 10ft apart (give or take 1-2 inches). So this hole is no more than 20ft wide.
The columns on each side of the hole do NOT seem to be seriously damaged.
This is where the "wing root" would have hit. Probabally the strogest section of the plane
