I, for one, never said missile.. I just said that I couldn't see any way that is was a 757..
They show a single piece of landing gear, a single (small) disk, a tire rim, and a bunch of smashed up metal..
How does that indicate that it was a 757, which has 3 sets of landing gear, 2 engines with 6+ ft. engine disks, solid titanium engine shafts, etc..
The wheels are also similar to that of a Global Hawk.. The landing gear is similar to that of a Global Hawk.. The disk is more aligned with the size on one in a Global Hawk..
Now to apply just a bit of common sense.. a 757 has an aluminum nose, and it supposedly hit at an angle, which would involved a deflection factor, yet this aluminum nose, with a bit of steel framing, was able to withstand the weight of the plane on impact, get through several steel re-enforced walls, and leave a nice, well-rounded hole in the C ring..
Yet the 2, 6 ton engines, the heaviest parts of the plane, didn't make a hole.. or even a dent..
They supposedly can't identify what hit it because everything was destroyed beyond such point, yet they were able to identify all of the passengers..
The AFIP in its report dated November 16, 2001, incredibly said it positively identified nearly all the bodies, including the Flight 77 passengers, a medical feat which several medical experts considered miraculous if not, impossible, considering the short amount of time and the amount of devastation at the crime scene.
These were govt. autopsies with no independant, second opinions allowed..
