I watched a very interesting doc on Netflix on this a few years ago. Probably the same one. Many witnesses said they saw a trail go UP, then saw the explosion. One woman, who was brought to tears in an interview for the film, said some G-Men came to her house to talk to her about it and TOLD her what she saw. One man, a former NTSB investigator, said there were things going on in the hangar by FBI agents that he said he had never seen before: A man was changing the evidence tags on the recovered parts. When he started to say something about it, he was told to leave.
Very shady goings on with this thing. The fuel tank spark was complete idiocy and only a fool would buy it.
It was a good enough lie to fool people who do not know anything about the subject, which is most people.
I beg your pardon!
It was an electrical shot in the center fuel tank.
The absolute proof of this is that the world's entire fleet was promptly grounded until each plane could be retrofitted and recertified.
...oh wait...
Yes, same one.
Ron Brown’s business partner was on TWA800. Ron Brown was killed when his plane was led off course into a mountainside in Croatia...he supposedly had a bullet hole in the top of his head about the size of a .45..........
