Still makes for some interesting engineering conjecture. I’m still with the group claiming ruptured fuel tank theory. One thing to think about. There was no explosive residue in or around those tanks. No implosion of the airframe - there was explosion from the airframe. Just saying.

I believe there is some dispute about that, and those findings seem to be part of the focus of the alleged cover-up.

Sadly, I wouldn't believe anything the Federal government told me about their investigation anyway.

Science is easier to fake than interests, goals, cost/benefit, etc.

The residue of what appeared to be rocket exhaust covered most of the first class cabin seats. This was never explained in the original investigation report.

This is consistent with a missile strike on the forward section of the aircraft where the warhead failed to detonate. There would be major structural damage from that impact - which could then lead to breakup of the airframe and rupture of the fuel tank.
