The plane was remotely controlled by a command transmitter system, at least in the final minutes.
There was an explosive device on board, which was detonated immediately before impact, probably
remotely controlled as well. The timing, trajectory, etc, may have been generated by a software
program of some sort that could work this out to the millisecond precision.
The government has in effect itself promoted the idea that the Pentagon event was caused by
something other than AA77. Videos of the Pentagon attack were taken by security cameras at Sheraton
Hotel and a gas station, both of which had a clear sight line to the side of the Pentagon that was hit.
These tapes were confiscated by the FBI within minutes of the attack. Sheraton employees watched the
hotel video repeatedly before the FBI arrived and took it. Why doesn't the government release these
videos?
