Post wasnt one of the planes a 747?

On BBC world coverage of last night / early morning a 747 can clearly be seen flying at a strange attitude disapearing behind trees, yet there is no report of a missing 747.

Did anyone else see this footage? if so whats the relationship to this Tragedy

Yes I saw that too when they were showing coverage from Washington area. Maybe it was
American State or Military ?

The only footage I saw of a 747 yesterday, was Airforce One, returning to Andrews AFB.

Your description sounds like that same footage.

There was also footage of BA 747 landing at Vancouver B.C.. There were 39 diverted aircraft stacked on the ramp there.

Cool

Initial reports stated that the pentagon impact was a 747, but that has now been corrected
