Michael, this, actually, is my *favorite* conspiracy. The assumption is that the outline of the aircraft, wings and all, should be visible somehow in the hole that remained. In reality the "hardest part" of any plane is not the fuselage and certainly not the lightly built wings. In fact it is the compressor shaft/turbine blade of the engines that do the most penetrating. Everything else just crumples up a like an aluminum can crushed on a busy street. The body *does* penetrate in the process of coming apart on impact.
