The aircraft would require engines and in the case of Flight 77; JET engines. The engines would require JET fuel and there was no JET fuel; neither in the area of the 'impact hole' nor burning out on the lawn. Simple reasoning would expect JET fuel traveling at 535 mph to splash off the wall and back on the lawn. NOPE. No burning JET fuel on the lawn nor on those polyethelene undamaged cable spools right there near ground zero

Wow April didn't see any jet fuel?
Schickler Rob (smelled fuel and was a mile away)
Oh wait.. April didn't smell or see any jet fuel! That means there was not ANY.
But again... April saw none of this so... she must be right!
It is 9:03 a.m. and United Airlines Flight 175 is staring him in the face.
"Suddenly I see this big gray airplane with red letters on the wing and tail filling my window," Praimnath says. "It’s coming right at me."
Praimnath drops the phone and tucks under his desk in a fetal position as the plane obliterates the wall. The impact is a prolonged, gut-wrenching screech, a hideous, metallic roar. "It sounded like a huge steel cage being ripped apart," Praimnath recalls. Intense smoke and soot punctuate the agonizing explosion.
Then silence.
A flame interrupts the awful blackness, revealing a protruding aircraft wing blocking the exit only 20 feet away. I’m going to die, Praimnath thinks. Yet he cries out to God.
"Lord, help me," he prays, trying to stand. "I can’t do this by myself. I don’t want to die. I want to see my two little girls." Tears spill from squinting eyes as he realizes he is buried shoulder deep in debris. A nail pierces his right hand. Pain sears his body.
"Lord, You take control," Praimnath says aloud. Struggling to his feet, he is instantly showered by dust and debris anew as the ceiling gives way. Hands claw; legs thrash. Mercifully, his desperate plea seems momentarily answered.

April Gallup and little Elijah were effectively at GROUND ZERO; only 35-45 feet from the alleged impact hole. How do you explain the aircraft passing right through them? MAGIC?

Oh boy, TY this is only a story nothing more, do you want me to sit down with you and tell a story. Now you know I can tell a story!
Stanley Praimnath is a survivor of the destruction of the World Trade Center on September 11th, 2001. Praimnath worked as an executive for Fuji Bank on the 81st floor of the South Tower, the second to be attacked. He appears to be one of the few survivors who actually saw United Airlines Flight 175 approaching the South Tower seconds before the impact while inside the building.

Clark rescues Stanley Praimnath
Clark was called out of this debate when he heard a voice calling for help. Some of the drywall that was supposed to enclose the stairwell had fallen away so Clark and his co-worker, Ron DiFrancesco, left the others to seek out that voice. DiFrancesco was soon overcome by smoke and returned to the stairway.
Stanley Praimnath was buried under some fallen debris. With Clark's help he was able to extricate himself. When they returned to the stairwell the others were gone. So Clark and Praimnath went down. According to an interview with both of them in a special documentary aired in 2005, Stanley was so grateful that Clark rescued him that he hugged and kissed his saver, rather surprising Clark.

Because you're wrong about the hole being 16 ft.
It was 90 ft wide, and she was 40 ft from THAT. Which outs her beyond the wing tip. Therefore, she was out of the debris zone.
This makes her statement true and believeable.
Guns and Butter broadcast with Dave von Kleist interviewing April Gallup. There was an explosion and she crawled out from E-Ring through the hole onto the Pentagon lawn. She saw no jet fuel and nobody burned with jet fuel. She and her baby boy were about 35-45 feet from the alleged impact hole and no jet fuel was splashed on them. What happened to the huge infernos and fuel-air explosions inside which allegedly incinerated all the aircraft parts and engines and wheel hubs and baggage and seats?
