Flight 93, Part 1

  

This is the crash site of Flight 93
 

 This is the official flight path of United Airlines 93. Link


According to the official story, United Airlines 93 departed at 08:42am from Newark to San Franzisco and was hijacked at 09:28am. Than it changed the direction and was flying towards Washington D.C.. The passengers learned of the attacks in New York and Washington by phone and they then decided to retake the plane. They didn`t get into the cockpit because the hijacker first crashed the plane at 10:03am near Shanksville.

 

Discrepancies
However, there are major inconsistencies in the whole story of Flight 93:

Three-minute discrepancy: Official Crash time 10:03 - Seismic Crash time 10:06

 Lamont-Doherty Earth Observatory of Columbia University and Maryland Geological Survey(Mr. Kim and Mr Baum) Link 
However, we positively identified seismic signals associated with United Airlines Flight 93 that crashed near Shanksville, Somerset County, Pennsylvania. The time of theplane crash was 10:06:05±5 (EDT) 
 
10:06 was the official crash time for one year.
This discrepancy became known after family members of the victims were allowed to listen to the cockpit voice recorder.

Several leading seismologists agree that Flight 93 crashed last Sept. 11 at 10:06:05 a.m., give or take a couple of seconds. Family members allowed to hear the cockpit voice recorder in Princeton, N.J., last spring were told it stopped just after 10:03. The FBI and other agencies refused repeated requests to explain the discrepancy. PhillyNews

 

Two Flights - Official Departure time 08:42 - BTS Departure time 08:28

 Since the flight cannot take off twice in the morning to San Franzisco and the BTS is reliable, there must be an explanation for it. Researcher Woodybox has written articles about the incidents.

This phenomenon of two departure times also occurs on the other hijacked flight United 175 (08:14 official and 07:58 BTS) BTS Woodybox

American 11 has 07:59(official), but has no entry in the database of BTS. but has no entry in the database. In addition this flight has changed the departure gate(from 32 to 26). Woodybox

For United 93 there is an additional inconsistency - fueler Mazza has seen another pilot in the cockpit of this flight. Woodybox The passengers also were walking to the plane across the tarmac instead of through the jetway. according to Clayton White. Link  It looks like the passengers had changed to a plane on the apron. According to the cockpit voice recorder, flight 93 departed at 08:42. Link

Comment: These are all indications that a second plane, was involved here.


The weird crater hole

This is the crash hole with the wing imprint:

The grass at the wing imprint is not even burned, no recognizable plane debris.
Left photo: The plane must have crashed vertical. The earth mound is more in the south. 
Right photo: The destruction in the forest is south of the crater.
 
According to the official version the plane has come from the northwest.
The damage pattern in the forest should be more in the eastern direction.
Flight 93 struck the ground at a 40 degree angle almost upside down, hitting right wing and nose first, at a speed of between 563-580 miles per hour. It was carrying approximately 5,500 gallons of Jet A fuel at impact. Link (Click "Where did Flight 93 crash?")

Vertical impact: 
The photos clearly show a vertical impact! An impact at a 40 degree angle clearly looks different.


No Jet Fuel: 
The soil is being tested for jet fuel, and at least three test wells have been sunk to monitor groundwater, since three nearby homes are served by wells, Betsy Mallison, a state Department of Environmental Protection spokeswoman, said. So far, no contamination has been discovered, she said. Link
Additionally, none of the surface water results indicated any contamination that could be attributed to the Flight 93 crash. Link

 Comment: The photos of the crash site do not match the official version:
  • the plane seems to have come more from the north
  • the plane struck the ground at a 90 degree angle
  • the plane could not have had that much fuel

Total destruction of the aircraft:

Dave Berkebile:  "It probably had a terrorist bomb on board that blew up. Don't know anything more than that, That's what I heard on the scanner." Link 

Comment: It is speculative, but a bomb would explain the large explosion and destruction just when there was no kerosene left.


The witnesses of two different planes:

 Basically the witnesses in the region have seen two different planes:

  • a very low flying plane from the northwest
  • a damaged plane near Indian Lake from/to the east

 This is the region around shanksville. The blue line is the official path of Flight 93 with height specification in feet. The red line is the "witness-line" of the very low flying plane.

I call the red line the "Witness Plane" and the blue line the "FDR Plane".

This is an image from the FDR, displaying the altitude Link

 Witnesses of the low flying plane(Witness Plane) from the Northwest:  

 (none of the witnesses can confirm the flight altitude from the data based on the FDR according to the above graphic)   

Akron area:  ....when we saw a large jet fly overhead. being on a flight path for two local airports...Watching this aircraft fly approximately 1,500 feet over my neighborhood shook me up. I watched to see which way it would fly, thinking maybe it was heading to Akron-Fulton or Akron-Canton airport...The aircraft made a path to a directional marker (used in aircraft navigation) and flew a path that would take it towards Pennsylvania...There were no others large aircraft in our area as I eventually found out from the ATC at Akron Canton airport...I called our local flight school and spoke with the FBO operator and he also agreed that I had indeed witnessed flight 93.Link 

...We're about 10 miles as the crow flies from CAK. I noticed that this plane wasn't right. It was lower than a plane landing at CAK normally is. It, also, didn't have its landing gear down...Link (CAK=Akron-Canton Airport)

Stahlstown(west of Jennerstown),SoudersHe hears a roar and when he looks up sees a large plane about 150 to 200 feet above the ground...He sees black smoke coming from these, “like when the engines are throttled up,” FBI

Boswell, Rodney Peterson and Brandon Leventry notice a passenger jet lumbering through the sky at about 2,000 feet Link

East of Hooversville, Robyn Blanset: It was so low they could see the windows and the cockpit, and it occurred to Blanset that, if the passengers were looking out, they could see her and her father working on the roof. Link

 Stoystown, Terry Butler: The big airliner was coming in just a few hundred feet off the ground, then it swung over to the right. Butler lost sight of it behind the trees.Link

 Lambertsville, Viola Saylor: It was so low that it rustled the leaves of her 100-foot maple tree in her yard. Link

 Comment: It looks like the plane was flying very low at least from Akron and was following directional markers.
The region in Pennsylvania is very hilly and is between 2000 and 3000 feet high.If this is also taken into account, these and also all other witnesses contradict the altitude data of the flight recorder and the above graphic respectively. Even an official graphic of the flight path directly contradicts the witness statements. (A=Blanset, D=Butler, F=Saylor)

None of the witnesses saw a climb until 10000 feet, therefore it must be doubted whether the fdr-graphic from point G or H is correct at all. Therefore no one has seen the FDR Plane.

 

Witnesses of the damaged plane from the East : (I call it the "Secret Plane")

Indian Lake: Residents of nearby Indian Lake reported seeing debris falling from the jetliner as it overflew the area shortly before crashing. Link
                                                       
 Meanwhile, investigators also are combing a second crime scene in nearby Indian Lake, where residents reported hearing the doomed jetliner flying over at a low altitude before "falling apart on their homes." Link
"People were calling in and reporting pieces of plane falling," a state trooper said.

 Indian Lake Marina, Jim Stop: Jim Stop of Somerset was fishing at the Indian Lake marina, about three miles from the crash site, when he looked up and saw the plane overhead. “I heard the engine whine and scream,” Stop said. He then heard an explosion and saw a fireball. Link                                                                                                         Jim Stop reported he had seen the hijacked Boeing 757 fly over him as he was fishing. He said he could see parts falling from the plane. Link                                                                  

John Fleegle: “All of a sudden the lights flickered and we joked that maybe they were coming for us. Then we heard engines screaming close overhead. The building shook. We ran out, heard the explosion and saw a fireball mushroom,”

Carol Delasko: Delasko, who ran outside moments later, said she thought someone had blown up a boat on the lake. “It just looked like confetti raining down all over the air above the lake,” Link                                     

New Baltimore, Mr Oster: Victor then spoke with Mr. Oster via telephone, and he
confirmed the sightings of other small white planes flanking
Flight 93. Link 


Summary:

There are two different crash times(10:03 and 10:06), also two different departure times(08:28 and 08:42). The damage pattern on the ground does not match the official flight direction, it also shows a vertical crash(official: 40 degree angle).
There are two different planes observed by the witnesses: A low flying plane from the northwest and the damaged plane east of the crash site. There is also the official plane from the Northwest at a higher altitude, according to the official version.
