You can see where it is in the first picture in this link.

You can also see it here.

I can't see why you're having problems finding it.


Look at the height of the Pentagon at the point where it's perpendicular to where the craft was. Double the height which is about the length of a 757. Now put that distance between the tail and the front of the box in this picture.

It's about twice as long. It doesn't fit. If you allow for the angle of the 757 it still doesn't fit.
Using the height of the Pentagon perpendicular is wrong as the plane was approaching at an angle and would be farther away. Thus you would need to use a part of the Pentagon farther away and smaller.
