You can pretend he doesn't say what everyone can hear him say in the interview presented in the OP all you want but it only makes you look really odd.
He specifically says he was in between the wings.

So...if this is true. How much time would he have in which the aircraft was in view above him?
Can't you handle simple math? If this was the official Flight 77 above him as represented in the 9-11 Pentagon OFFICIAL STORY which it could not be, then the speed would be 535 mph or 784 fps. The openings between the building wings appear to be exactly 50 feet wide. The 757 body is 155 feet long. About 0.2 seconds (1/5th of a second) seems about the amount of time the aircraft would be visible to Morin at the official 784 fps.
270 mph or 395 fps
0.4 seconds (2/5th of a second) is the amount of time Morin had to view the aircraft between the wings and then run out into the parking lot and seeing the tail until the explosion. Adjust the time either way you want, but there was not much time to view the aircraft between the building wings was there?

I've followed this thread (and many others you've been in) and its beyond logic or reason how utterly in denial you seem to be even when a government official is one of the EYE WITNESSES who unequivocally states something that irrefutably supports CRAIG and the NOC path, and clearly is an UNBIASED OBJECTIVE CREDIBLE WITNESS.
Yet you still refuse to accept what he's said... Do you have a mental disability or are you just upset you're realizing the evidence has proven you've been deceived and are defending the LIE 9/11 was?
I had just reached the elevator in the 5th Wing of BMDO/Federal Office Building (FOB) #2 – call it approximately 9:36 AM. I was already trying to make some sense out of the World Trade Tower attacks having heard about them on the radio. The news was sketchy, but the fact that it was a terrorist attack was already known. 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. As the aircraft approached the Pentagon, I saw a minor flash (later found out that the aircraft had sheared off a portion of a highway light pole down on Hwy 110). As the aircraft flew ever lower I started to lose sight of the actual airframe as a row of trees to the Northeast of the FOB blocked my view. I could now only see the tail of the aircraft. I believe I saw the tail dip slightly to the right indicating a minor turn in that direction. The tail was barely visible when I saw the flash and subsequent fireball rise approximately 200 feet above the Pentagon. There was a large explosion noise and the low frequency sound echo that comes with this type of sound. Associated with that was the increase in air pressure, momentarily, like a small gust of wind. For those formerly in the military, it sounded like a 2000lb bomb going off roughly ½ mile in front of you. At once there was a huge cloud of black smoke that rose several hundred feet up. Elapsed time from hearing the initial noise to when I saw the impact flash was between 12 and 15 seconds.

So what's your point?
Are you calling Terry Morin a liar?
This is what he says about where he was and how he saw the plane.
"I then realized that I was wearing sunglasses and needed to go back to Lot 3 to retrieve my clear lenses.

Terry Morin: I will admit that I made a mistake on ID'ing the airplane and the reason is because it flew right over the top of me. It's not like...
Craig Ranke: Right over the top of you, now were you between the wings of the Navy Annex or out on the....
TM: I was right at the edge of being on the outer portion. Ok? So when the plane went right over the top of me I was within 10 feet of the edge of the Naval Annex.
CR: So you were kind of between them? Or were you 10 feet outside of the edge?
TM: No, I was inside, it flew over the top of me [...] I then immediately ran to the outside.
TM: I did not have a side view of the aircraft.
CR: You saw it directly above you?
TM: Pretty much. You know slightly, because remember I am a little bit inside, Ok? And so...if his fuselage is a little bit outside, 20 feet to the right, a few feet to the right, all I'm trying to say here is that I had no side view. If I would have seen a side view I could have told the people it was an American Airlines. Because I would have seen the stripes. I didn't see the stripes I saw the silver belly.

He specifically says that he could NOT tell it was an AA jet because he had "no side view" of the plane

Daniel Hopsicker said once that he was told by someone on the "inside" that the only reason he was still alive is that there are people in the CIA who have made it known that if anything happens to him there will be retaliatory action taken.
I hope these people are looking after the CIT guys as well.

This means Craig, that he saw the airframe. You simply do not want to accept his statements as they were back in 2001 because you know for a fact they kill your fantasy.
You Craig, have changed your unanimous NOC claim.
You have changed your flyover location.
You lied to Morin proving your integrity.
where did it get you? no where at all. USA Today, MSN, ABC, NBC, FOX... none of them are reporting a massive military deception on 911. You wneet against your word for the sake of humanity. The return....
NADA!
Part of being in the truth movement one would assume, is being truthful. You sir, were not.

jthomas has helped demonstrate why first-hand confirmation of eyewitness accounts is so important.
And that this was his initial view of the plane before he ran out from between the wings:
Originally posted by clearmind
go back and look at what jthomas posted as Morirns statemant and what CIT has posted as morirns statement. jthomas info is missing the statement I didn't see the stripes I saw the silver belly...or im just missing it???
funny how both side are using the same info to prove their side...

However we do not know the type of aircraft used for the decoy aircraft nor its speed, except it was much slower according to real living videotaped eyewitnesses. So lets guess and divide everything in half. Do not forget that Morin HEARD the aircraft approaching from the sound waves bouncing off the interior walls of the building wings, and was looking up EXPECTING to see an aircraft. Don't let the disinformation excreted by jthomas lead you down the path of fools.
posted by SPreston
Also, if the aircraft were the official Flight 77 757 depicted in the 9-11 Pentagon OFFICIAL STORY which jthomas so foolishly defends, then Terry Morin could simply have turned around, looked to the south, and viewed the aircraft from the side about 300-400 feet away and about 30-50 feet above the parking lot level. Terry Morin would never have been so fooled to describe that aircraft as above him would he?
