Also, a lot of planes have external fuel tanks - both under wings and some under the belly. Southwest does this more than any others...
I agree, it is pretty poor quality. Probably to help entice you to "donate" $20 and they'll send you a DVD copy of the whole thing.
They said the 2nd plane with the bulge and the flash before impact could be seen from 4 diffrent angles from, obvisouly, 4 diffrent cameras.
I don't know what the flash could have been. A bomb? Sure, but why? What would be the point of a bomb going off just before impact? Maybe to do damage to the building before the plane hits to possibly make it easier for the plane to enter the building. I'm not sure, that's the only idea I can think of. I don't know of any other reason why there would be a flash of any kind unless it was a bomb.
It's also very possible that it could have been an extra fuel tank. I don't know.
