A human and a plane are so totally different that this has to be the most absurd statement I've heard in awhile. You can't even begin to compare a plane with a max takeoff weight of several hundred thousand pounds, to a human weighing maybe 200.

The black box was found 10 miles away? Source? It was dug out of the hole with the wreckage. The only debris found miles away was light paper and seat cushions, etc.

people need to use discernment, if you cannot tell what a crash site of a large aeroplane looks like, why don't you just google for images.
What you wont find is ANYTHING that looks like the shankesville crash site.
The entire plane vanishing into the ground is a story that only the mentally deficient, or, young children would believe, but with current IQ's i can see why people still believe in fairy stories.
ATS i thought better of you generally.
Deny ignorance, especially your own, google for images of crash sites and compare them.
Planes are destroyed during the process of highspeed impact, pieces break off, are ripped off, on impact.
To even begin to accept "The plane vanished entirely into ground" is idiocy of the highest order, when a plane strikes water, water tears pieces of it off, water is a lot less dense than the soil at shanksville.
If water was not such an issue to planes, whenever there was a highspeed emergency, they could just put the plane in water, in fact airfields would be built next to large bodies of water, just in case of emergency.
Fairy stories, believed by the masses, unwilling or incapable of using their God given intelligence to discern truth.
I feel sorry for a lot of you people.
This plane a bit smaller is just one instance of the pieces that are left after impact, some parts of the aircraft are more prone to become separated on impact, this is why traveling in tail sections is regarded as better during impacts.

Planes fall out of the sky at about 90mph.
This is one of the reasons I love ATS. They allow 5 year olds to post. Because only a 5 year old would make such a statement. 3 year olds don't know that unless a statement is a priori true, some support should be cited. First, at 90 mph, alpha (AOA)would be far past critical. According to the Boeing 757/767 checklist I'm looking at, the aerodynamic stall speed is 166.863 mph (145 knots) at MTOW (maximum takeoff weight.
So where might a 5 year old get such a 90 mph idea. Well, if the vertical component of a 600 knot crash is 8,000 feet/ minute, which is easily achievable for a 757, the vertical component is 90 mph. But the kenetic energy at crash time is still 1/2mv, and the v is 600 knots, and not the vertical component of 90 mph.

The CVR. It recorded hijackers in the cockpit, the pilot's that took off weren't heard for a long time prior to impact, and it recorded passengers voices breaking into the cockpit just before impact.
From the CVR transcript:
10:00:06 There is nothing.
10:00:07 Is that it? Shall we finish it off?
10:00:08 No. Not yet.
10:00:09 When they all come, we finish it off.
10:00:11 There is nothing.

multiple family members all reported the events that were occurring on the plane as they received phone calls from their loved ones who were on the plane. i dont doubt that a hi jacker slammed the plane into the ground and the passengers when they went to storm the cockpit, the hi jacker knew they were coming for him. remember this plane wasnt supposed to crash in the middle of a field in Pennsylvania. wiping out a herd of cows isnt the goal of a terror group
i dont doubt that a hi jacker slammed the plane into the ground

TextI don't know what to think of this, to have angels (spirits) you have to have a dead body right?
Oh really? Heres another pic...

Not surprised at this. The plane was going super super fast. Faster than most airplanes when it crashed. Witness's called it bullet fast. The terrorists 'put the peddle to the metal'. So when it hit, everything was totally destroyed.
As for the 'angels'. Sure, I have no doubt that spirits were there and they may still be. There are ghost reports by the guards there. (go to the Shadowlands Haunted Places index and look it up).
However, considering that it took this long for the spook-story to come out .. that makes me wonder if the ex-FBI person may be trying to sell a story or get some money or something ....
