I don't know which data feeds the flight data recorder (barometric
altitude or radar altitude readings), but here a thought. On climeout
following take off, the pilot's would have reset their barametric
altimeter's to 29.92 mmHg as they passed throught 18,000' (or at least
this was what was done 15 years ago - I admittedly haven't kept up)..
If the terrorists didn't reset the altimeter during descent, it's
concivable the baromtetric altimeter could be 100 to 300 feet off.
Competent investigators could not have failed to address issues like this
and to spell them out in their report, something along these lines: "Here we
have an apparent discrepancy. We see the following possibilities to resolve
it ......; we consider possibility x to be the most probable."

Yeah, that's what I would expect, but I haven't seen the NTSB report
(and am probably not competent to
understand it all).
John any thoughts on why flight 93 had no fuel in it's tanks when it
crashed? Or why one engine was found 10 miles from the crash site?

No fuel in the tanks? I found a reference on the web to the movie
"United 93" (http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0475276/goofs) that states in
the movie there is a shot of the cockpit
showing no fuel in the tanks. Other than that, how did they tell after
the crash that the fuel tanks were empty? As for the engine, I don't
know. 10 miles is alot. Maybe when the terrorists rolled the
plane toward the ground they over stressed and engine mount and it
came off in flight. I remember dropping 500 lb practice bombs during
low angle (< 15 degrees @ 500 IAS) passes at the range in kansas.
Walking the range after wards, you could see the spot where the bomb
hit the ground (round hole, blue paint) and see where the bomb exited
the ground 1/2 down range - the thing went into the ground and
'skipped' off the bedrock. So weird things happen when heavy objects
hit the ground going really fast. But 10 miles would be quite a ways
for something as large as an engine to 'skip'. My guess is that it
came off, which means broke or shot off.
