Any graph in the AFM would be for the normal flight envelope. you may be able to extrapolate but the reationship would not be linear and the further away you get from VMo the worse any errors will be. As said, you won't convince the conspiracy theorists no matter how hard you try.

One thing to suggest however is that loads of people must have seen a 757 flying AWAY from the pentagon at 120 ft which I doubt.
