Miller recalled his arrival at the crash site about 20 minutes after the plane plummeted to the earth...
... and described how the aircraft came down at a 45-degree angle. He explained how the cockpit broke off at impact, bouncing into a wooded area of about 60 acres. The resulting fireball scorched about eight acres of trees, he said.
The remainder of the plane burrowed deep into the ground, creating a long, narrow crater.
"When we got out there, we knew there weren't going to be any survivors. Debris was strewn about everywhere, with nothing bigger than a large coffee can," Miller said.
Miller is accustomed to dealing with death, handling about 250 cases each year as the county coroner and operating his own funeral homes in Somerset and Rockwood. But nothing prepared him for this.
"I just stood there and thought, 'My goodness, what are we going to do?'" Miller said. "The only thing that really shocked me was the amount of devastation and how small the fragmentation was. After the first 15 minutes, it was clear to me it would be very important that I was a funeral director."

What photo is in question??
This photo, used by a 'debunker'
Complete fraud. Fabrication of evidence. No sources and not even a wheel from a flight 93 the Boeing 757.
This picture was posted by hooper, he claims it came from Flight 93. Proven to be faked and fraudulent evidence. Very poor tactic. Yuk. Shame shame.

Thats right you never do post evidence to support what you post.
I am still waiting for you to post evidence that you claim flight 93 remains are in Iron Mountain.

At this point The Maid of the Seas was flying at 31,000 feet (9,400 m) on a heading of 316 degrees magnetic, and at a speed of 313 knots (580 km/h) calibrated airspeed, at 19:02:46.9.
As it descended, the fuselage broke into smaller pieces, with the section attached to the wings landing first (46.5 seconds after the explosion)

I gave you what there was, in the public record, on the remains of Flight 93 being in storage.

Compared to UAL 93, deliberately dove into the ground, and by chance impacted in fairly soft soil. IF UAL 93 had hit in different terrain, then we wouldn't be having this discussion at all.

It was not intact at full throttle impacting the ground in a nosedive.

You forget that it did hit at full throttle because the engines were still on.

The point is that it hit the water at very high speed but yet there was enough recovered to do a reconstuction.

Once again, TWA flight 800 broke up in mid-air. Parts fell off and hit the ground at roughly free-fall.

Anyway, IF the reason for UAL 93's crash had been a mystery, then they would have tried to recover, and reassemble as much as possible, in a search for a cause.
