There's no damn filled in mine where the plane supposedly went down in Shanksville.
It has been suggested that the softness of the soil into which Flight 93 supposedly crashed was a factor. The site where the plane allegedly went down was a reclaimed coal strip mine. This means that a few years earlier, the ground had been excavated down to a coal vein, the coal had been removed, and then the earth had been replaced. The ground was therefore relatively soft and consequently, as firefighters involved in the recovery effort described, "the Boeing 757 tunneled right in." [26]

And the plane parts supposedly at the Pentagon, were'nt the correct size for the plane that supposedlly crashed there.
SHANKSVILLE, Pa. (AP) — The abandoned strip mine where United Flight 93 crashed nearly four years ago on Sept. 11, 2001 will be returned to the control of its owners when the county coroner releases the area as a death scene on Monday.
Forty-four people (33 passengers and 7 crew members) lost their lives in Shanksville on September 11 when Flight 93 went down on an abandoned strip mine.
On Sept. 11, 2001, United Airlines Flight 93 crashed into an abandoned strip mine. The flight, which carried 44 people, including four hijackers, was heralded for the actions of passengers who apparently attempted to overpower the terrorists. Audie Cornish talks to NPR's John Ydstie about Sunday's events in Shanksville, Pa., where a moment of silence will mark the crash.
Thousands of visitors have climbed the crest of Skyline Road north of Shanksville, Pa., and gazed reverently at the abandoned strip mine - a silent pilgrimage to the passengers and crew of United Flight 93, who sacrificed themselves to save others on Sept. 11. As in the early days after the Oklahoma City bombing, visitors line a temporary fence with mementos: flags, rosaries, flowers, quilts, stuffed animals, even a flight attendant's uniform. This remote area, 80 miles southeast of Pittsburgh, needs to be set aside as a place for Americans to remember the first brave civilians who fought back against terrorism on U.S. soil.
