Any video's of this missile attack?
Usually the the USA is up front with friendly fire incidents so i cant think of a reason they would do a cover up of this particular incident.
I'll go with the official story about the shorted wiring igniting the central fuel tank. Where was Obama when this event occurred?maybe he can be implicated someway.C'mon all you Obama haters make the connection..
Funny stuff! in 50 years only one shorted wiring happened. Jet fuel can't be ignited in that manner. Do some simple research.
When that plane was all put back together- it was obvious the shape of what hit that plane and where it hit it.
250 witness' saw that object streak UP towards that plane.
I do know that Obama wasn't in the white house pretending to be president.
Coverup is not really out of the question. All those witnesses reported seeing an upward light - people can be threatened into silence - i really don't see how people can buy the "official" story and still fly regularly. Are you that confident that a fuel tank on "your" airplane won't cause your death?
Maybe because most people took mathematics through at least the 5th grade?
There are approximately 11 million commercials flights annually in the United States. It's been 16 years since TWA 800 went down.
16 * 11,000,000 = 176,000,000
So you figure those 176 million-to-1 odds are so terrifying that people shouldn't fly?
You're a prime example of irrational fears -- of people who are too scared to fly (ignorant of the fact that a 100-mile car ride is more 'dangerous' than a flight from New York to Paris [the TWA 800 flight]).
[PS - short-circuits aren't particularly unusual at all. Fuel-vapor explosions are unusual. But hardly unique. If you'd read the NTSB report you would realize this, as it cites several examples of fuel-vapor explosions destroying aircraft. I guess all those wild and fantastic websites you love pitching lurid conspiracy theories forgot to mention that, huh?]
Lesson that should have been learned. Never run wiring inside fuel tank vapor space. Automotive in tank electric fuel pumps make me nervous. There has to be a safer way of pumping fuel to the injection system.
IIRC the subject fuel tank did look like it blew up from an explosion inside the tank not from a puncture from the outside. I agree that this is a closed case.
