I read a sentence .

"she saw the plane go into the twin tower".
I feel odd this sentence with go without to .
I'd like to find other sentences with the same structure.

On google you'll find many examples. ;)

Search "go into". :)

You can use many different prepositions with "go" -- the verb go just indicates movement, and the preposition gives you a more precision description of that movement. For example...

I go to the store --> I go in the direction of the store until I am at the store
I go toward the store --> I go in the direction of the store, but do not reach the store
I go around the store --> I go to the store, and when I reach the store, I do not go inside, but I stay outside the store and move along the perimeter until I am on the other side
I go away from the store --> I go in the opposite direction of the store

etc...

In this case, go "into" something...

I go into the store --> I go to the store, and when I reach the store, I move to the inside
