Wreckage from TWA Flight 800 to be destroyed 25 years after crash
For nearly 20 years, a haunting relic of one of the worst aviation disasters in U.S. history has been tucked away in a cavernous warehouse in Northern Virginia. The jetliner was decommissioned this month and will be destroyed by the end of the year. The crash left 230 people dead. (www.washingtonpost.com) 기타...Sort type: [Top] [Newest]
Plenty of people saw the missile. I guess I'm a nut-job, too.
Some say the missile was intended for an El Al flight, that switched take off slots with TWA at the last moment.
I for one will never believe the 'empty gas tank' theory.

Your guess about being a nut job is correct
I had a chance to study the wreck with the investigators. All of the witnesses who "saw a missile" said they heard the explosion, then looked up, then "saw a missile." Kinda backwards.
There have been many other cases where witness accounts didn't match up with the physical evidence.
To all the conspiracy "nuts" out there, I'm glad you have time for all you do in regard to your conspiracy theories. Continue on. Maybe some day you'll come up with something. I don't have time for it all.
I do have a specific question: Why is the fuel tank explanation so disagreeable to so many people? I am pretty familiar with the fuel tank explosion of an Illinois Air National Guard KC-135 aircraft near Wonder Lake, IL. The explosion blew off the tail of the aircraft and all souls were lost, including some in my Air Force Reserve unit right next door to the Guard unit. IIRC, the conclusion of the investigation was the explosion happened when a radio was keyed creating a spark in some wiring "proving that electrical sparks and fuel don't mix very well.

The word "conspiracy" exists for a reason.
Not everybody drinks the Kool-Aid and no, apparently, not everybody died with Jim Jones.
The Government mind-set is that people tend to forget quickly. They are right. After enough time has passed, nobody cares anymore. Manipulation of the masses is easy and effective.

Belief in the missile theory depends on ignorance of how forensic investigations of downed aircraft work. A missile probably wasn't mentioned as a cause in the final report because there was no evidence to support a missile. Missiles leave loads of evidence. AA missiles don't just get close to aircraft and blow up, they release projectiles and shrapnel to shred the target. Investigators didn't see any of that. Nor did they see any evidence of any traces of explosives from the missile. Missiles don't use jet fuel in their their explosive package because it's heavy and burns too slowly. Investigators would have found the high explosive traces from the missile but there wasn't any.
One problem is that stupid people are always dead sure and intelligent people always live with a doubt. I am glad so many here is the exception to that rule or….
