In fact the material released does not show this at all. The lying mainstream media is using the old trick of telling the mark (the reader in this case) what they are about to see and then showing them something; the gullible mark will then believe they see what they have been told to see.
The material released is little more than the five so-called CCTV frames released (or rather, "leaked") years ago, pictures which were quickly judged by astute observers as probably faked.
Xymphora has a good commentary on the newly released material, in which he says:
If you look at the video (I downloaded a copy from here), you can see that it is a collection of stills joined together, and of such bad quality that you cannot tell what hit the Pentagon. It is a manufactured product, and therefore can't be analyzed to provide any evidence as to the speed of the plane, and can't be analyzed to see if there are anomalies in the video. It is literally mostly smoke. It really is of no more use than the stills that have already been released, and the most amazing thing about it is that people claim that it now settles the issue of what hit the Pentagon. It certainly does not. ...
Although Judicial Watch asked for all the recordings [the camera recordings of the Pentagon attack from the Sheraton National Hotel, the Nexcomm/Citgo gas station, Pentagon security cameras and the Virginia Department of Transportation], it pronounced itself satisfied after getting just one, one which did not, and could not, put to rest the conspiracy theories.
One of Xymphora's readers left this sagacious comment:
The recently released "video" is such a fraud that I had to laugh out loud when I saw the news coverage on CNN. You must be joking? I kept asking the screen. After the big buildup in the media, and after having had 4 1/2 years to play with their advanced digital technology, that's the best they could come up with? Grainy footage (or as xymph claims, a series of stills) that shows nothing conclusive? That's the most and best video surveillance footage that one of the most secure and highly-guarded buildings in the world could produce? I've watched it over and over again and whatever the whitish-grayish streak/nosecone/UFO is, it certainly doesn't strike me as a large, unwieldy 757 jetliner. Much smaller. The thing was positively streaking in at very high speed (within a second or so it goes from barely appearing at the right of the frame to massive fireball, with no intermediate shots of jetliner). It also had to have been traveling mere feet off the ground to come in at the level it did. Is it at all plausible that a large, unwieldy, 100+ ton jetliner, traveling at hundreds of mph, and piloted by (supposedly) an inept amateur who flunked flight training school on a small Cessna, and virtually skimming the ground to the point of taking out 5 lightpoles, making bystanders duck for cover, and clipping the antenna off a SUV (the Official Story), streaked into a flawless groundfloor impact of the Pentagon, without so much as leaving any recognizable debris at the scene? S-U-U-R-R-E.
Rather than debunking the claims of conspiracy theorists, as the paid media shills so pompously and smugly claimed, this new "tape" merely reinforces my contention that the Pentagon was struck by a missile. No true skeptic of the Pentagon story will be persuaded by this sham, and it wasn't aimed at the gullible public who never doubted the Official Story. The real target was the skeptics, but it wasn't to debunk their claims — it was to act as CONFIRMATION of them. Yes, this is just another mindfuck from the national security state, a way for it to laugh and give skeptics the middle finger while saying, "Yes, you're right, we did stage the attacks and hit the Pentagon with a missile. And you know what? It doesn't matter. We got away with it." Score a big one for the bastards — if they feel confident and arrogant enough to taunt us this way, it spells big trouble ahead.

Right. Four years and eight months after the murder of nearly 3000 Americans the murderers have not been exposed; they still sit behind their desks in the White House and the Pentagon, and appear on TV promoting their "War on Terror". They believe that the American people are such gullible fools, as shown by their acceptance of (if not belief in) the absurd and ridiculous official (cover) story, that they can continue to commit whatever further crimes they wish, including the "supreme international crime" of waging war on countries that present no discernible and likely threat (Yugoslavia, Afghanistan and Iraq in the recent past, Panama earlier, with Iran now in their sights). In any half-civilized country with an uncorrupted police and judicial system these murderers would have been exposed years ago, and by now would have been tried, convicted and executed. But no, this is the United States in the early 21st Century, a nation which apparently knows no shame.

How fast is a normal 757 jet going? The stall speed is 262km/h, just to keep it in the air. What is the field of view of that camera? 100m? 262km/h = 72m/s. So the plane would have been in the field of view of the camera for less than 1 second, travelling at stall speed. At 3/4 flight speed of 500km/h, it would have been in the field of view for less than 1 frame.
It's lucky that the camera even got a blur.

Why Bother?
We know of three hijackings, two of which hit buildings, one which officially crashed although all evidence shows it to be have shot down (thats another nagging question: why deny shooting it down when 99% of people probably would have agreed with doing so?). Why bother making a plane "disappear" with all its cargo and passengers and yet simply use the planes as missiles in other attacks?
I discussed this video and the pilot's apparent superiod flying skills with a friend who, like me, is somewhat of an aviation buff but who is also a trained aircraft mechanic. We came to the conclusion that a flight school drop-out simply could not fly such a precise flight path at only a few feet from the ground and put a 757 through the first floor windows. We did, however, accept the idea that a flight-school dropout COULD aim for the center ring of the Pentagon and screw it up badly, hitting the first floor of the outer ring instead.
So, there are elements of the missile theory that make more sense, but there are also elements of the airplane theory that make sense.
So, I remain undecided.
You neglected mentioning the ground effect and turbulence also associated with planes that size flying that close to the ground.
Also, considering that the empty weight of a 757 is between 128,730 lbs and 141,330 lbs (depending on model) one is at a complete loss to explain exactly HOW an aircraft weighing between 64 and 70 tons at minimum, impacting at a speed roughly 300 miles per hour managed to do SO LITTLE damage.
The offical story is a fraud and physics proves it.
However if they're using cartoon physics, it might work...

I gave the Penatgon cameras the benefit of the doubt, and assumed 30 FPS.<br />
<br />
Have a look at fast image cameras capturing a jet fighter hitting concrete at 500mph.<br />

However, I do tend to give some weight to people I've met who were in the area at the time, and say they heard or even saw a plane.

See my link to video above. 6' of reinforced concrete is wonderful stuff. One wonders how 70 tons @300MPH did any damage at all.

Office buildings generally don't house nuclear reactors anyway.
That the front facia where the planes wings would have hit was barely even damaged speaks volumes, not to mention intact withdows made of non-reinforced glass.
And besides, how would a 757's turbines which drive the fans in the turbofan engines shrink to under 1/2 their design size?
Gotta love that cartoon physics.
