Based on that narrative you read from airliners.net, who did you reckon this?:
Sounds like they were in very rapid decent just before impact!!
Look at the timelines for the phone call from Betty Ong, and any comments about the descent (you will find this is earlier, from the cruise altitude of 29,000). Looks like reading into it too much.
Here...actual altitudes were not precisely measured (when compared to UAL 175) because they only had primary radar returns. NORAD's radar information were used to augment what ATC radar could not measure:
Flight Path Study - American Airlines 11
Page #2. Average rate of descent 3,200 fpm. (This is not very excessive, really. Just in normal descents, it's around 2,200 to 2,500, depends on the speed you select, and a bit on your weight too).
Looks like both AAL 11 and UAL 175 employed about the same tactic...staying high and steep, with nearly level just for the last portion. Kamikaze style......

"For a flight attendant to say rapid descent, it's rapid and it's quick. We don't use those terms very loosely," said Woodward.

Please Jim, look into PVI. PVI sold the company in December 2010 to Sportvision and ESPN2. IT WAS A PVI VIRTUAL ANIMATION. Even the guys from letsrollforums agree with me NOW.
If you know someone who has a tv production truck, maybe they can show it to you. The operator plots a 3D wireframe on a camera shot. A point is picked from which the animation is executed. You will notice if you watch the helicopter footage, that the camera zooms in 2 times. The director was checking the animation in the preview monitor, before the plane animation was taken on the program monitor. The wireframe was a big off, and was not reset, that is why the plane icon went past the predetermined border. The camera shot MOVED. There were NO PLANES. It was an elaborate ILLUSION.
Don Dahler reported for ABC saying he didn't see a plane. Charles Gibson told him WHAT HE WAS SUPPOSED TO SEE.

He wasn't the only eyewitness on the scene who did not see or hear a plane and was told by a member of the media "what they were supposed to see."
Or how about this witness?
Unless you are deaf (and obviously these witnesses aren't), how can you not hear an airplane traveling at 550 MPH at an elevation of only 800-900 feet?

I have explained that (1) the plane is traveling at an impossible speed, which has been confirmed by a study from Pilots for 9'11 Truth which I have archived here,
and explained in detail by John Lear, one of our nation's most distinguished pilots, in an affidavit I have also archived here;
(2) that its entry into the building is in violation of Newton's laws, where the effects of a collision between an aluminum airliner flying at over 500 mph with a 500,000-ton steel and concrete building would be the same regardless of which is stationary and which is moving, where the plane is intersecting
with eight (8) floors of concrete on steel trusses, which would have provided enormous horizontal resistance;
(3) where the plane passes through its own length in entering the building in the same number of frames it takes to pass through its own length in air (in both the Hezarkhani and the Fairbanks videos), which would be impossible unless a massive, steel-and-concrete building provided no more resistance to the trajectory of the plane than air;
(4) the cookie-cutter cut outs (which are like the Roadrunner/Yosemite Sam cartoons of my youth), not only do not resemble what an actual plane impact would have created (where the body of the plane would have crumpled, the wings and the tail would have broken off and bodies, seats, and luggage would have fallen to the ground), but do not even show up until after the plane has already entered the building,
Come on Sphinx--you're slippin'. Back to this old hype? What does an eye-witness who missed seeing the impact prove? It proves nothing except that their view was obstructed, or they weren't looking when it happened. Oberstein said, "I heard a boom, then I looked up and saw an explosion". Is that proof of no plane? Let's listen to what she had to say about the second plane. Watch at 01:22 :
This is a minor point, but Bush was in the air in Air Force One after it took off from Sarasota, where he had been reading with children about a pet goat. "By 3 p.m., Air Force One touched down at Offutt Air Force Base in Nebraska." But he took off from Sarasota shortly before 10 AM. "At 9:57 a.m., Air Force One thundered down the runway, blasting smoke and dust in a full-thrust take off."
