The lamposts were part of the plan, they were felled to make it seem like a plane hit them, they have been analysed, and from the evidence gathered they look to have been deliberately staged.

Do you have the experience, qualifications and evidence to prove this?
Or is it just another hunch you have?

Well, the plane did hit a bunch of lamp-posts on its way to the pentagon. Smoke might be a result of one of those impacts.
I'm just saying. It's a likely possibility.
"We (were) literally surrounded by debris, and there's a very strong odor of scorched earth," Parsons reported. "It doesn't smell like jet fuel, it smells like ... How do you describe it? Burned earth. It smells like burned earth."
A series of five images made by a surveillance camera on Sept. 11 which show American Airlines Flight 77 crashing into the Pentagon were released today. Officials could not explain why the date and time in the bottom left corner of the images are incorrect

The smoke is most likely oil from the engine. Jet engines use oil as both a lubricant and for cooling. It is kept under high pressure to keep it from boiling.
The starboard engine clipped a tree on the way to the pentagon. This would have damaged the fan and compressor blades, unbalanced engine and blown the seals, allowing oil to escape.

If you apply pressure to any liquid, the temperature increases and cannot possibly be used in that state as a coolant. .

Furthermore, jet engines are not cooled because the objective is to draw in air, to compress it to raise the temperature and to ignite the fuel for thrust.
International air regulations require that each engine be equipped with a self-contained oil system capable of providing continuous oil flow to the engine, under all conditions. The recirculatory oil system stores, carries, cools, and distributes oil needed for lubricating and cooling every bearing, gear, spline, carbon seal, and certain accessories. Oil Flow The de-aerated, filtered fresh oil flow, delivered by a single positive-displacement pump from a tank attached to the engine, is supplied to each component through a piping network and/or internal flow passages. The supply pump delivery pressure can be regulated or unregulated, depending on the engine builder’s practice. An antisiphon system prevents the tank draining due to the siphoning effect that is created upon engine shutdown through the supply network when the tank is located above a supply nozzle. A pressure relief valve protects the supply pump and circuit against abnormal output pressure that can occur during cold starts. The flow distribution is metered through oil nozzles, protected in some applications by last chance filters or dead end pockets. The flow rate to each component is based on lubrication and cooling requirements in the particular area to be lubricated. Scavenged Oil Flow After lubricating and cooling, the components in the bearing sumps (or compartments), the oil flows down by gravity to the bottom of the sumps, carrying heat, air bubbles,wear particles

Edit; but isn't the plane too high for the damage? If the engines were that high off the ground the impact point would have been much higher wouldn't it? Now that you can't use the excuse it was in a dive, what do you say Dr. Fixer?

I'm not sure you really understand Gay's Law anyway.
It relates the temperature of a constant volume of gas to pressure such that Pressure/ Temperature = a constant, K (P/T=k). In my schooling we just learned PV = nRT (the ideal gas law for anyone googling at home). Anyway You ought to know that air conditioners work by pressurizing gas (which does heat it up), radiating some of the gained heat, and then depressurizing the gas (which cools it down) finally energy is absorbed on the cool side of the AC unit, and the cycle begins anew.
Anyway, Gay-Lussac's law doesn't prevent anybody from using pressurized liquids as coolants, provided that there is a change in pressure somewhere along the loop.
caveat: I don't know much about jet engines, so I don't know if they work on a similar principle to air conditioners, or if the oil is kept at a constant pressure in the cooling cycle... that's beside the point.
Anyway, MI5, on your quest for truth, you should use google before making pronouncements about things you know little or nothing of. It took me only a few minutes to find persuasive evidence that your statements about jet engines and cooling systems are grossly misleading, or downright false.

That's a long winded way of talking around the fact that you were wrong:
pressurized fluids are indeed used as coolants, and oil is used as a coolant in jet engines.
I don't want to get into an argument with you about refrigerators. anybody who wants to learn about it can google and read the wiki. They all use pressurized fluids as coolant. Talk about open vs closed systems all you want, it's not relevant.

To make my point again, since you fail to understand the courteous and detailed response I gave you, oil is not used as a coolant in refrigerators or in jet aircraft.

Key Fact The circulating jet oil has as its important functions: 90 percent to transfer calories, 5–10 percent to reduce friction, 2–3 percent to seal, to circulate contaminates to catchment devices and to protect against corrosion.
Gas turbine engine lubricants function mainly as heat transfer agents. They remove heat from the engine's bearings and gears...

< the differentials between compressed and pre-compressed freon type gas is insignificant and that the purpose is to move gas through the system. Both compressed and pre-compressed refrigerant gases are at least -40C
First, a compressor in your air conditioner compresses cold Freon gas. A small amount of oil is combined with the Freon gas to lubricate the compressor. When the Freon gas is compressed, its pressure rises, making it very hot. Next, the hot Freon gas moves through a series of coils, which has the effect of lowering its heat and converting it to liquid. The Freon liquid then flows through an expansion valve, which causes it to cool down until it evaporates. The result is low-pressure Freon gas. The cold gas is then channeled through another set of coils. This allows the gas to absorb heat and lower the air inside the room or building.

so it looks like you have conceded the point, since you have not rebutted any of my arguments or evidence....
Oil is used as a coolant in jet turbine engines.
As for this being a side issue, you are the one who decided to take the time to contest this fact.
