It was also mentioned that the terrorist took down all methods of communications and that once you get to a certain elevation cell phones don’t work.
Ever notice how clear the phone calls are from the passengers to their family 🤔🤔🤔🤔🤔🤔🤔🤔
How high was that plane flying when those calls were made 🤔🤔🤔🤔🤔

It took off from Newark IIRC, and was hijacked over Ohio. So it was well over 30,000' when hijacked. It may have started descending, but seeing as how it came down in western PA, probably not a lot.

If you want to know whether it came down in one piece after losing control when Beamer and his fellow passengers struggled over the controls, or was shot down, research the debris field. Planes shot out of the sky by a missile or missiles scatter parts along their path until the impact.

One thing I'm sure of: if the plane wasn't shot down then, it would have been later. No way was it going to enter the airspace over DC.

Wise men speak because they have something to say; Fools, because they have to say something.

Probably under 10,000 feet to get any real signal. I've flown hundreds and hundreds of times though and you'd be surprised at how high you can be and your phone starts ringing if you didn't turn it off. Text messages can be a bit higher. It's not just altitude but weather, solar activity can have an impact.
