{Politics.523.3791}: One engine found one mile away {cardo} Mon, 28 Feb 2011 15:49:20 EST (HTML)
Searchers found one of the large engines from the aircraft "at a considerable distance from the crash site, by a garden wall."
"It appears to be the whole engine," he added.
Szupinka said most of the remaining debris, scattered over a perimeter that stretches for several miles, are in pieces no bigger than a "briefcase." (archived at http://library.triblive.com - search whole engine from 9-10-01 to 9-20-01 or read it here)
Crowley related that 95 percent of the airplane had been recovered. The biggest piece of aircraft found was a fuselage skin measuring about 6 to 7 feet. The heaviest piece was from one of the engines and weighed 1,000 pounds. http://www.dailyamerican.com/disaster.html#final
Comment: It's important to recall that every description of the main
crash site is that the airplane was OBLITERATED. Very small debris was
spread over a couple hundred yards. This is exactly what you'd expect
to see when an Airliner impacts nearly vertically as Flight 93 did.
Nothing survived this impact... yet a 1000lb fan was found elsewhere.
It fell off before impact, just like Flight 587's engine that was
found basically intact did.
