Come on guys.
Everyone seems to agree that the plane didn't hit the Pentagon... and the Government is covering it up.
Yet somehow you all think it's reasonable to trust data released by the government from a data recorder from the plane?
If the data the govt. releases supporting the terrorist explanation is not valid, then the data they release supporting anything else is not valid.
I'll listen to anything in the way of eyewitness testimony and physical evidence that refutes the terrorist story... but when we start using information that was released by the same people who are lying to us just because it supports what we want to believe... that's when I get off the bus.
Look at it this way.
If it was a helicopter... the data is fake.
If it was a missile... the data is fake.
If the flight was unmanned... the data is fake.
Only if the flight was hijacked does it make any sense to trust any of this data, and it seems to me that nobody here thinks it was a hijacking.

What you have here imho is yet another case of an overlooked aspect in doctored and planted evidence, the real FDR of that flight could never be used no matter what happened, it would show at the very least that the alleged flight path and clipping of lamp posts, and being in the required position for the CCTV`s field of vision, the frame where the outrageously to small for a Boeing (released Pentagon video) is seen behind the heliport, was impossible.
Yet another small but highly significant point that was completely neglected.
All the planted evidence stinks of wtf!!! no way, including the alleged engine that fits into a waste bin over at the WTC, all the quickly put together paper trail found in the hire car etc, the soaked in jet fuel passport, the Bin Laden video, flight manuals in Arabic (martyrdom edition), P.C. Flight simulator software, receipts for box-cutter knives, over at Shanksville... The rusty engine part delicately placed in a digger bucket, the debris free lawns of the Pentagon just after impact then booooom!!! just in time for the MSM a delivery from Plane Crash Debris `R` Us do their thing, etc, etc .

Why?
Why believe that? Because there are too many people who hated the Bush administration that would prefer he was involved for emotional reasons.
Where is the nul hypothesis and testing? Just repeat a loaded question often enought and forcefully enough and it becomes truth rather than an unevidenced question.
I have some questions and please excuse me if I am behind the curve in this since I don't look in on a daily basis.
1. Did 77 crash into the pentigon?
2. If not then where did they get the flight recorder?
3. If they planted the flight recorder then where did it come from?
3. Was it planted at the pentigon or did our government invent the data?
4. If the black box itself is in question, why are truthers now using the data from this box to suport their claims?
5. If the government is involved with a cover-up then why are they providing this information that truthers can us against them?
Yes, I think it's good to ask questions.
Bush wasn't involved man. He was just the buffoon they put out in front.
Kind of like a modern day Claudius.
Buffoon? Probably. He really wasn't very bright. Who are the "they" you are taking about?
PNAC in general, Cheney in particular.

How was Cheney involeved and where is there evidence to suport this?

Are you saying something like that?
Excuse me for saying this but this whole post sounds like nothing but a rant. First you make opinions not based in evidence and then you change the subject to the WTC, make more assumptions and finally make a brash conclusion of "case closed" without examination of your statetments. Did you go the the Al Gore school of science by any chance? Well ... I guess we should all just wrap it up and go home. The questions have all been answered.

Airline Pilots and Flight Crew Members reading this will recognize my generic descriptions to maintain airline security.
FACT: The 2001 Cockpit doors were like hotel room doors, when closed; THEY LOCK. The doors were never left open.
If a Flight Attendant was murdered in the front of the airplane, near the cockpit door, the pilots would hear loud screams from fellow crew members and the passengers. The Pilots would be alerted by the violent noises on the other side of the cockpit door.
FACT: The 2001 Cockpit doors contained peep holes, just like hotel room doors.
One Pilot looking through the peep hole could easily observe the violence, and alert the other Pilot who has radio access to FAA Controllers.
FACT: The cockpit contains a "jump seat." The jump seat is an extra seat in the cockpit, used; 1. by the FAA to check/observe pilot performance; 2. for airline pilot training; 3. to reposition non flying pilots to their destinations. THIS ADDITIONAL PERSON IS SITTING IN THE COCKPIT; WITH ACCESS TO THE COCKPIT DOOR.
The person riding in the jump seat, may not have been recorded on the Aircraft Passenger Manifest. If this person identified himself as a Pilot; the Captain flying the airplane would check his pilot credentials. Government/FAA credentials are inconsistent and are more difficult to verify.

I still find it hard to believe that 4 airlines were taking over and the pilots had no time to give a warning.
Did all 4 flights leave the door open?
Did terrorist ram all 4 doors?
Did pilots from all 4 flights walk out to see what was going on allowing terrorist to get in?
Suspicious minds.....

Here's a little tech for those interested. The Flight Deck Door was most
certainly assigned as a recorded parameter as per this chart:

A port that is not used looks like this in the documentation:
[atsimg]http://files.abovetopsecret.com/images/member/c503c27cb4d9.jpg[/atsimg]
It is clear, without debate that Flight Deck Door was assigned and being
polled by the system.
These captures were taken from a Boeing 757 manual, document number:
D226A101-3, revision G.
As shown the flight data recorder receives a logic low (binary 0) when the
door is closed. With electronic circuits (specifically digital signals), you
must NEVER leave a pin open. It must be referenced to VSS (signal high),
or Ground (signal low) at all times. It CANNOT remain floating or the input
circuitry will receive noise, and/or an undetermined value.
For this reason, the following circuit is the standard for switched logic
circuits. There may be variations, however the signal input line will
ALWAYS sense Ground (logic 0), or VSS (logic 1)
[atsimg]http://files.abovetopsecret.com/images/member/41ef709bc16d.jpg[/atsimg]
So what does this mean? Well, according to the documentation, the door
is closed when a logic zero is received at Port D14, word 251, bit 1, subframe 3.
If this parameter was NEVER recorded the documentation would not assign
a port, and/or a word/bit position.
If the door was left open, the value would read logic 1 (VSS) as shown on the right side (Figure 2).
Parameters that are not recorded (IE: spares, or unused ports) are tied
to ground instead of VSS to reduce current draw and power consumption
in a circuit.
Summary:
Unused pins, spare ports, etc. are tied to ground and are labelled as spare
in the second chart from the top of this post.
Assigned parameters are never 'floating' and will either see a logic 1, or
logic 0. In the case of the Flight Deck Door, it was reading ground which
means it was closed (logic 0).

In a terrorist situation what if the door were propped open, then what?
Would it polled by the system then being deemed as open or shut?
Would there be a default for this type of action by the door (being ropped and not shut) or would it even register it.
What would the default setting for that particular pin (door latch) be acutuated for if the door had been breached for a period longer than the system had been programmed to "read" (poll) the latch system for?
