So, you are saying they should have found the wings correct?
plus, the burden lays with you on trying to explain how it couldnt have been an AA Flight77 757 that crashed.
You'd think that all the debris inside the Pentagon matches with a 757
and the DNA from the victims on board would be enough to prove you that it was what it was. Flight 77.

Also tezz, there is one photo of a serial number, but I know you will ignore it and say it planted or something else.
You asked for a serial number you have one.

My my my, how quick history is forgotten.
Here is from 2000 an NTSB report of a EgyptAir 767 that crashed into the ocean in 1999, FDR recovered, SERIAL NUMBER UNKNOWN.
Upon receipt, the FDR was removed from the cooler and examined for damage. The FDR’s outer sleeve and internal electronics were subjected to impact damage. The FDR’s faceplate was partially removed from the casing; only the cable from the external equipment connector (i.e., data plug) held the faceplate to the FDR. The nameplate attached to the faceplate was missing; therefore, the unit’s serial number could not be determined. Finally, the underwater locator beacon (ULB) and ULB mount were missing from the faceplate.

Yes, please; could you please post the S/N for the FDR for TWA flight 800 that crashed in July 1996?

So is it not possible that the forces of impact may have just as well knocked off the serial number plates off the FDRs? Its not every day you have aircraft impacting large buildings at 400+mph, then having the buildings collapse onto the remaining debris. Much more turmoil ad chances for the S/N to be lost or destroyed. It is just another possibility, SPreston. Once again, if you are doing an investigation, you must investigate ALL possibilities and not cherry pick those that fit a pre-determined "idea". Either consider all or none.

not when you have the entire aircraft entering the building. The tail goes in after, then don't forget the partial collapse of the front of the affected area. The velocity of the black box will still be the same as the aircraft's initial velocity at impact. So it will still move forward anyways.
And again, we have no explanation how the 757 debris ended up inside the Pentagon to begin with and how CIT explains how people managed to "plant" everything in front of hundreds of commuters, eyewitnesses, search & rescue teams, TV crews, first responders, etc, without anyone noticing. This is another untied string in the CIT "Flyover" fantasy.

One, the tail would have been sheered off on impact but no tail debris can be found. Really? You looked? How do you prove a statement like that?
It certainly didn't enter the building because where the tail should have been, no identation marks of any sort can be found. The building was made of silly putty?
So your suggesting then the FDR did not suffer a loss of velocity upon impact? In violation of physics, correct?
We already know there are conflicting accounts about who discovered the FDR and where they discovered it. Not only that, you claim the "flyover" is a fantasy, but YOU MUST ACCEPT IF YOU ACCEPT THE ALLEGED OFFICIAL FDR. The official FDR has the plane too high to hit the light poles and too high to hit the Pentagon.
There is no way around it. Your caught accepting official evidence that proves the OCT wrong.
Secondly, you can read several accounts about anonymous individuals and 'fake' firefighters on the scene at the Pentagon. No one has any clue what they were doing there and they were all acting very strangely.
So as far as planting evidence, all these people are immediately suspect. So you contend that it was possible for people to sneak around and plant plane and body parts without anyone noticing and your proof of this "theory" is that people were seen doing this?
You can read more here:Imposters at the Pentagon
Independent contractors were operating in the area at the time, all of who would be suspect. As far as planting parts, its not that difficult in an emergency such as that.

She escaped through the 16ft in diameter hole the missile left, making her way down through the lower floors filled with debris. No Airplane, no luggage, no passengers.
Mr Thomas, you are either one naive denialist or working from your post in Langley.

First off:
I am surprised you are still hung up on this notion that the debris is not from an airplane or from a 757 or from Flight77. There is plenty of evidence of the landing gear, engines, parts of aircraft, etc inside to prove there was a 757 impact. Not to mention the witness accounts of watching the plane go into the building.
wtc7lies.googlepages.com...
I don't think a coroner investigating a body that was just shot to death by four bullets to the chest and one to the head with 10 witnesses who can confirm it, will go and test for diseases/stab wounds/chemicals/toxins instead as potential killers, rather than confirming it was the bullets that killed the victim.
Second. You really think that the wings should have survived in one piece on impact with the Pentagon? Really? Tezz, basic physics would explain why you are wrong. This picture gives us a good idea of what happened to the wings when they made contact with the walls of the Pentagon at speeds over 400mph:
So tezz, where did the plane go in the photo above?
Then ask yourself, what is the size of the wing in comparison to the F-4 Phantom jet. (lets not forget the jet in the picture above had solid engine parts as well and they were obliterated in the collision).
