is not a building the size of a community hospital in downtown DC.
Its 5 stories basically...
And I was more alluding to the poster saying it was doing 500 mph.
You see, at some point, a commercial craft, because of its weight, has catastrophic wing failures when trying to maneuver sharply at high speeds.
Point being, you aren't driving in at 500 mph and leveling off quickly to get parallel, it would shear the wings, basically.
I'm notbssying it wasn't the plane that hit, I was saying it wasn't as that poster described.

Let me quote from the NTSB report:
"The airplane accelerated to approximately 460 knots (530 miles per hour) at impact with the Pentagon. The time of impact was 9:37:45 AM."
