About path on this pentagon photo
It could be a path from construction work of new section.
Any way to get an older pic of this to see if it (path) is still
there?
I have a hard time believing a rookie could fly a jet
like this. Either he was playing up that he was an idiot or
someone/thing flew that jet/blury thing.
As far as the video camera footage.
It was pretty far back
Wide angle lens (pushes distance further back)
Just vague enough to keep you guessing.

2. I know that....
That's why I want to know how long the path has been there.
This shot was just a few days before, but was the path there
a month before?

3. I don't know how long the path was there
It's not relevant. The plane didn't follow that path, it hit a little more to the left.

4. Don't know when
This picture was taken, but it appears to show a white box (i.e. something) about where the white box (i.e. something) is in the overhead imagery. Also, the overhead seems to show another white box (i.e. something) close to the perimeter walkway/road. Since the disturbed area stretches between these two white somethings, it could be something as simple as a drainage culvert. There also appears to be a path arcing between the two white somethings in the overhead in addition to the straight path.

Notice that the overhead doesn't have the resolution to show the grave markers in Arlington Cemetery that are clearly shown in the general aviation photo.

5. How is it not relevant? Can't the shift to the left be pilot error? nt

7. It seriously could just be a footpath. If you had more overhead imagery
of the Pentagon you might find others like it. Folks (in this case perhaps construction workers) taking shortcuts to get to where they want to go, rather than walking all the way around on the concrete. JMHO
