Sorry if I was too hard. The prevalence of urban myth about certain topics irritates me and I don't carry it off well. The trouble is, even though something may be "hard," that doesn't mean it didn't happen. It is even harder for a missile guidance system to pull off that collision. Think about that.
Of course the plane went into the building. Where else was it going to go? The structural columns sliced it up, but the rest was propelled into the interior, being shredded as it went. Same thing with the wings, which may have been wrapped back alongside the body. And, yes, the building wreckage would have slumped into the cavity created by the airplane intrusion, probably covering up the airplane wreckage. If you would only think through the collision process, it will become less mysterious.
The plane wreckage was mingled with the building wreckage. The victim identification process would not have been for the weak of stomach.
Heh yeah, if that's what happened then I imagine the victim identification would be the way Norm Macdonald so eloquently described plane crash victim identification to be like: "everyone is just 'stuff' at that point: yeah we got some stuff over here, throw some of that stuff into this bag and label it Johnson..." (paraphrasing, he said it way funnier).
