How long was Flight 93 in a dive for? The air frames can't take a prolonged dive, engines will tear off. Might explain it. The Silkair 185 crash had exactly the same thing happen, sudden dive, went supersonic, ripped the engines off the plane, huge debris field, no F-16's."When the people find that they can vote themselves money, that will herald the end of the republic." -Benjamin Franklin

It is stable enough to fly 600mph without ripping the engines off, so I would guess that it would be engineered to stay together at higher speeds."When the people find that they can vote themselves money, that will herald the end of the republic." -Benjamin Franklin

"The National Transportation Safety Board reported that the flight impacted at 563 mph" so that is very fast, but probably didn't come apart, however that's assuming there wasn't more stress on the air frame. You pull back at that speed and the whole air frame can collapse. I don't know if it has control surfaces that respond fast enough to do that, but I know there have been C130's which have folded the wings in. But I don't think I've ever heard of anyone saying it came apart on the way down, I think witnesses said it came down in one piece."When the people find that they can vote themselves money, that will herald the end of the republic." -Benjamin Franklin

Asking for $15,000,000 USD, or best offer (this includes all the snacks in the plane).
Not much fuel in the plane at the moment, but it's in great flying condition. ABSOLUTELY NO JOY RIDES!
SOLD AS--IS. NO TRADES OR RETURNS. ALL DEALS ARE FINAL.
Ask for Fariq when calling and setting up appointments to see the plane.I wear a Fez. Fez-es are cool

Flight 93-The a/c was seen at low altitude (verified by witnesses) and moving extremely fast.. rolled over and went in inverted.. Trash debris ( paper products etc ) from the plane were blown/traveled/found 8 miles away.. considering we were finding paper debris in Tulsa from the tornado in OKC, not surprising at all that the debris went that far. From what I recall from our briefing at work, engines/gear/fuselage components were found in the impact area. Don't recall any comments about any engines being found 8 miles from impact site. Really struck home more than one way..I was born and raised less that 20 miles from where Fight 93 Impacted. Bought my Ramcharger from Shanksville Auto ( Dodge Dealer) and hunted deer in that area..Natural law. Sons are put on this earth to trouble their fathers.
