First Hit Oddities

Here is a link to the CNN clip of the Naudet film showing the first hit.

It's hard to analyze much there, but what you should be able to see is that when the plane hits and the fireball grows, there are squibs of smoke at the very top edge of the tower.

What on earth would cause that? Vents? Or secondary explosions? They come up very quickly. What also seems odd, but maybe this is my ignorance is that before the fireball occurs, there are huge clouds of smoke that come out of the building. Is this just the frontal wave of the fireball explosion? Or something else? Is the smoke from debris getting blown out or smoke from burnt fuel?

In any case, what is really odd is Webfairy's blow-up of the first hit. Personally, I think the video is way too small and out of focus to make out if it is a 767 or not. But what I find odd is when you look at the flying object go INTO the building, you can clearly see that the end of the flying object goes in significantly more towards the left hand side of the building. But if you look at the hole on WTC1, you can see the plane profile is centered almost perfectly in the middle of the building. So that doesn't add up.

The other oddity is if you look at the hole in WTC1 from a different shot, there is a HUGE chunk of wall right in the center of the hole, where the fuselage is supposed to have passed through. I'm really not clear how the huge fuselage got past that chunk of steel wall.

One possibility is the wall section was broken off at the bottom and broken but not disconnected at the top, and it folded in when the plane went in and then the wall section fell down blocking the entrance hole. This is feasible but I wonder:
a) if the plane went in with apparently massive force, how did this section of wall not get pushed completely into the building?
b) how come we can see this section of wall in the hole but no part of the plane (such as the tail)?
c) did the explosion blow out any large parts of the plane from the hole?
d) how did the explosion affect this section of wall?
