103. Examination of "punched out hole"
Shaped charges.... http://eric-bart.net/iwpb/inv2.html

One can see the "punched out hole" that was supposedly made by the nose of the plane. It is labelled N"3 in this picture. Pierre-Henri Bunel explains that is was more likely caused by a shaped charge jet stream. Hot plasma jet streams are designed to pierce concrete, they go far inside the building and end up in winds, smokes and heat.

Because a nose gear was supposedly found there, it was considered as a proof that the plane's nose made this hole. It is more likely that this gear wheel rim rolled there, pushed or drawn by the above jet streams.

In any case the wheel rim did not make such a big hole. Where are the plane parts that broke this wall ? These parts should be visible in the A-E drive and even damage the next wal : the B ring wall.

Nope. The next wall is intact. No damage. Only some smoke spot waiting to be washed. See it labelled :"smoke spot 3" in the picture below, it's in line with the plane's trajectory. See also these pictures for another view of the B ring wall and of smoke spot 3.

It appears that no solid matter made this hole. It was made by the forceful pressure of hot gases and smokes. This is much more consistent with shaped charge explosions.
