Let me dumb this down for you. If throw a glass bottle at a wall the bottle breaks. If you send that same glass bottle into a concrete wall at 600 mph it's not going to break, but go through the wall. A plane that belly flops into a small building at 150 mph in a controlled fall means the plane breaks up into lots of pieces. A plane out of control crashing into a strongly built skyscraper at 600 mph or the world's largest building (the Pentagon) means the plane gets vaporized.
