"Yes flight 800 was the only 747 in history to suffer from spontaneous combustion."

Are you really trying to say a tiny spark in a tank cannot bring down an aircraft in a catastrophic manner?

'Cuz I damned sure know better.

And eyewitnesses of fiery aerial explosions at night can be wildly wrong. Again, I know from personal experience.

Especially airborne National Guard missile identification experts.

I’m saying the first 747 flew in 1969 and almost 1500 of them built and they are flying every day.

Flight is the only 747 to experience a “tiny spark in a fuel tank”. Could it happen, maybe.

Does the chance of that occurring outweigh the many eyewitnesses who saw a missile. Some of them trained and experience military people. Like the guy who flew choppers in the Army and saw numerous surface to air missiles.

Not a chance in hades.
