Witness accounts

  • The landing gear from United Airlines Flight 175 ended up penetrating the roof of 45 Park Place.
  • When Alan Reiss and Richard Paugh, of the Port Authority, got out to the WTC plaza, they "saw an odd shape and looked closer. It was the nose gear of an airplane, missing the rubber tire, but with its wheel still connected to the hydraulic elbow that retracts into the bottom of the plane. Paugh began to take notes on its shape and location... they lugged the part into the police office, put a sticker on it, and Paugh said 'a plane hit the building', Reiss added 'it's a big plane, it's not a Piper Club, it's a bi-i-i-g fucking wheel.'"[1]
  • Sgt. Raymond DiLena, PAPD - "We exited the tunnel and drove north on West Street parking in the left lane a few blocks south of the WTC Complex. I noticed the lampposts were sheared off and body parts littered the street. A seciton of the landing gear proved to me that this was a commercial airliner."[2]
