28. The chunk taken out of the retaining wall was caused by the left engine, not the right..
The animation you provided a link to shows that. The damage is on the left side of the cable spools The picture I questioned shows the right edge of the "fuselage hole" and where the right wing struck. The generator, which was contained in a chain link fence, was just knocked to the side, with a big dent in it (or possibly a chunk taken out). Your animation shows the plane hitting the building with the right engine intact.

I could also make the case that the photo in SDude's post is totally misleading, when compared to your animation. According to your animation, the spot to the left of the cable spools, marked "Right edge of fuselage hole" is actually where the left engine hit.

What is your take on that? Is the animation wrong, or is the photo misleading and not labeled correctly? Pause your animation at 4:37 and take a look...

Hope you and yours are doing well, Mr. Berryhill...

Peace,

Ghost
