I refer you to the PDF supplement. It clearly shows the plane at an angle of approach that puts it 100ft above the Pentagon.
There are no witnesses to support this, therefore the PDF is in contradiction to the witnesses.
Please explain this.

Better yet, quit sniping and acting like a troll and a fool and displaying your lack of knowledge, and go to P4T with an open mind free of JREF disinformation and they can help you overcome your ignorance.

You are off topic and that is not how I was using the phrase.
The premise of this thread has nothing whatsoever to do with whether or not a flyover occurred.
It has to do with a presentation proving with math and physics that a band of pseudo-skeptics lied by furiously pushing the false notion that it is impossible for any fixed-wing aircraft to fly over the Navy Annex and bank north of the citgo at any speed.

How interesting that hundreds of people saw the plane on one side of the pentagon, and not a single one saw it on the other.
What would seem to be impossible, however, is a north side approach that both matches P4T/CIT eye witness testimony and is aerodynamically feasible.

We did, and I was part of that calculation and path structure directly.
Watch the video again, it shows several possible paths, speeds, angles
that are witness compatible.
If you don't agree, point out the errors AND/OR provide us with the
data points so we can once again prove it's aero-possible.
If you feel that Terry was not inside the wings watching the belly of the
plane, knock on his damn door and record a statement as such.

"I then realized that I was wearing sunglasses and needed to go back to Lot 3 to retrieve my clear lenses. Since it was by no means a short walk to my car, I was upset with myself for being so distracted. Approximately 10 steps out from between Wings 4 and 5, I was making a gentle right turn towards the security check-in building just above Wing 4 when I became aware of something unusual. I can’t remember exactly what I was thinking about at that moment, but I started to hear an increasingly loud rumbling behind me and to my left. As I turned to my left, I immediately realized the noise was bouncing off the 4-story structure that was Wing 5. One to two seconds later the airliner came into my field of view. By that time the noise was absolutely deafening. I instantly had a very bad feeling about this but things were happening very quickly. The aircraft was essentially right over the top of me and the outer portion of the FOB (flight path parallel the outer edge of the FOB). Everything was shaking and vibrating, including the ground. I estimate that the aircraft was no more than 100 feet above me (30 to 50 feet above the FOB) in a slight nose down attitude. The plane had a silver body with red and blue stripes down the fuselage. I believed at the time that it belonged to American Airlines, but I couldn’t be sure. It looked like a 737 and I so reported to authorities. Within seconds the plane cleared the 8th Wing of BMDO and was heading directly towards the Pentagon. Engines were at a steady high-pitched whine, indicating to me that the throttles were steady and full. I estimated the aircraft speed at between 350 and 400 knots. The flight path appeared to be deliberate, smooth, and controlled.
