The FDR is the key to this....it wasn't "changed"....or "faked".
FDRs have been used in COUNTLESS accident investigations, and provide PROOF.
So-called "eyewitness" testimony is then assessed, and used (or DISCARDED) as appropriate!!
What a complete WASTE OF TIME is this long ago discredited "CIT" nonsense!!!

Are yu reading the posts Proudbird??
GLs are adamant that the FDR..well..FDR Mark 2, which has never been verified..points to no left bank in the last 6 seconds before Route 27. So the question is, how can Snowcrash and Trebor and Reheat claim that there was any other path bar the directional damage path/FDR heading and now Stutt's "bank data"?
So, according to the "FDR data", the aircraft Morin should have been describing is this one:
End of story.

In domain (A), it's quite clear that Terry Morin is a SoC witness, which is why neither "WetBlanky" nor "ThePostExaminer" care to explain what will happen if, even in the most charitable scenario for CIT, when the plane flies "parallel to the edge of the FOB" AND "would have run into the Air Force Memorial", one draws a straight line from that point towards the Citgo. In domain (B), TPE has been repeatedly reminded that his repeated assertions that any deviation in witness perception of the Official Flight Path (OFP) amounts to actual physical deviation of the Official Flight Path, are absolutely false.
Snowcrash, I'm just getting warmed up. Why would I go to another thread to discuss Stutt's "data" when you're here denying a very important section of this data, namely the "bank data".
You're contradicting yourself throughout this thread regarding Morin.
One minute, Morin, according to you and most other GLs here (Reheat *wave*) was describing a "parallel to the NavyAnnex roofline/North of Columbia Pike" flightpath. The next you're squealing "Nirvana fallacy" after I painstakingly reinforced what path he was actually describing using Morin's own testimony. HIS words.
One minute you claim that a North of Columbia Pike path can pass "south of Citgo", but when I post Stutt's "bank data", void of the necessary left bank to line up with the directional damage, you're here ranting about what? That Morin didn't actually see the plane over his head, between the fence that runs between Columbia Pike and the Annex. heading towards the US Airforce Memorial site, over the edge of the roof of the Annex, no frickin way over south of Columbia Pike? That his view was somehow skewed and that he was completely wrong on all counts?
That more credence should be given to what he could physically see when the aircraft went below his line of sight?
...than when the aircraft was flying "50ft" above the Annex in full view? Really?
Slap my wrists somebody!
I know witnesses aren't computers but they're not complete morons either Snowcrash.
I'm moving on now to who actually corroborates the flightpath he described.
I've wasted enough time on you and your friends' contradictory statements.

Go on, just tell me he's "wrong" like every other witness that described NOC.

This is one more I owe you...
CIT has manipulated photos and .gif's in response to their debunked garbage. For example:
Here is an original .gif taken from video in which Edward Paik points down Columbia Pike as the direction he thought the aircraft flew as it passed his business... CIT titled this as Edward point North... That is not North, it is down Columbia Pike very close to the known proven path AA 77 flew....
Here is a modification posted by CIT which shows Edward pointing near North over the Navy Annex. The question is, what is the SOURCE of this photo? It is not from any known video... Answer: It is a manipulated photo after CIT received so much heat about their distortion of the direction Edward is pointing in the .gif above.. Their desperation and intent to deceive and defraud knows no bounds to prove their delusion...
TPE or any other CIT supporter choosing to continue to post bankrupt debunked SPAM will continue getting these examples of FRAUD and DECEPTION as any one of them continue to post....
Some search for the truth, huh?
Get a new hobby, this one is a FAILUREedit on 21-12-2011 by Reheat because: (no reason given)
.....points to no left bank in the last 6 seconds before Route 27.

What I would describe as pure fraud, is what CIT did to Roosevelt Roberts. And I can prove it, too.
Craig: 13 - 18 seconds? That much?
Morin: Well yeah, he's flying 350-400 knots..from here, all the way down, so maybe that's the time and phase of not knowing much..of reacting at the time.

I've pointed out how many times that what Morin described was nothing of the sort? Do I have to quote him again?
Due to all of these extreme contradictions with the official story and explicit exaggerated details meant to support it....it's clear that Morin is either relaying a completely fabricated or else wildly embellished account.
If THIS is your "main" witness in support of the official flight path it's clear you have serious issues.
The Attack
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.

This image alone is enough to completely debunk Terry Morin (...) Just analyzing Morin's ridiculous account and thinking about this while looking at that image is enough to prove the official story a farce.
Haha! Just as I thought.....NOTHING!
Morin is debunked.
You ignored many of my points showing you why Morin's account is not credible. Let's try this again, here are the points you ignored:
How could he see stripes on the fuselage of a plane that was directly above him? Edward Paik described it as having "black wings" which makes perfect sense with what you would expect to see if a plane was only 10's of feet directly over you.
There is no way there would be a "flash" in broad daylight from the plane hitting a pole and even if there was it would be impossible to see from the Navy Annex parking lot where he can not see the trees, the citgo, the light poles, the highway, OR anything more than the very top floor of the Pentagon.
He admits to the trees (that he wouldn't even be able to see) but expounds on seeing the "tail" after that even though this would be impossible to see for him at all if the plane was low and level to the ground as required by the physical damage. Of course it is possible that he would be able to see the tail after the plane pulled up over the highway and continued on over the building.
The notion that he saw the plane for 12 to 15 seconds is completely ridiculous and you know this.
