There is no record of ANY terrorist ever getting a STANDARD, much less a launcher to fire it from.

Is that the kind of thing they make a 'record' of ?

Thank you.
When AA587 went down I was off Atlantic Highlands, NJ with my back to the Rockaway Peninsular. I must have heard or felt something because I turned around and saw the start of the column of black smoke rising from the crash site. A few minutes later the Capt. of the boat I was on made the announcement of the crash. He had picked up the radio transmission of the Capt. (my friend) in Jamaica Bay.

he also said that if they were so sure that this was a center fuel tank explosion why were no planes ever grounded.

Great point! Never even thought of that!

Target drones are very big, not an Amazon drone.

So... big enough to take out a jet airliner ?

Target drones are painted all colors.

Most are painted red or orange to aid in recovery.

The red residue was not from paint that came off. It was supposedly caused by the engine exhaust as it passed through-—no, I don’t know the physics/chemistry of that process.

Ok, like a chemical reaction from solid fuel propellants coming out of an engine exhaust ? Like the kind that comes out of target drones ?

There was this: the "thirty knot track."

I remember at the time reading about a small boat making odd maneuvers. Here is a 1999 article from something called The Observer (a web offshoot of the New York Observer?).

Radar Shows ‘Getaway Boat’ Fleeing Flight 800 Crash, by Philip Weiss.

Excerpt:


The third anniversary of the crash of Trans World Airlines Flight 800 is July 17, so it’s a good time to look into what even the Government reluctantly concedes is a mystery about the crash: “the 30-knot track.” The 30-knot track is the radar trail of a boat that was the closest vessel to the 747 when it exploded and that then headed out to sea on a beeline from right under the burning wreckage.

“That boat is extremely suspect,” said William S. Donaldson, a retired Navy commander who supports the missile theory of the plane’s destruction. “He not only doesn’t turn to render assistance, he runs.”

“It’s like the getaway car,” said Graeme Sephton, an electrical engineer who is active in an Internet researchers organization that is highly critical of the Federal investigation.

The Government doesn’t think the unidentified boat is such a big deal. “It does not intrigue me,” said Peter Goelz, the National Transportation Safety Board managing director. F.B.I. spokesman Joseph Valiquette added, “In an ideal world, it would be nice to know everything, but I don’t think the F.B.I. or the N.T.S.B. claims to know everything that happened in the crash.”

This is a convenient position for the F.B.I. to adopt now. The most unsettling thing about the 30-knot track is that the F.B.I. essentially suppressed knowledge of it when the crash was foremost on the public agenda. Two years ago, the F.B.I. closed its criminal investigation into the crash, and James Kallstrom, then the lead F.B.I. investigator, testified before Congress that the agency’s “exhaustive” efforts had included “tracking of all air and waterborne vessels in the area at the time of the explosion followed by appropriate interviews.”

[snip]

The closing of the criminal investigation allowed the N.T.S.B. to hold hearings on the crash, one month later, where it offered hundreds of exhibits, a few of which depicted a “30-knot track” 10 miles out in the Atlantic. Radar data collected during the last minute of the T.W.A. flight revealed the two closest objects to the plane, both between three and four miles away, as a Navy P-3 airplane and what the exhibit called simply a “30-knot target.” Radar data for the next 20 minutes showed the mystery boat heading on a beeline out to sea, on a south-southwest course, even as other boats rushed to the crash to try to help out. It was nearly 9 o’clock at night, not the usual time for an excursion.

“I looked at that and said, ‘Wow, what is that guy doing leaving the scene?'” Commander Donaldson said. “And of course I assumed he was identified.”

Why the sudden re-interest?

Telling it straight, to promote Cashill's new book.

This incident still needs lots of daylight. It's been 20 years. Still LOTS of questions/misunderstandings/etc.

Yeah, for some reason I thought it was 1 month and 1 day after 9/11. I even googled “plane crash 10/11/01” to get the flight number, and missed the correction there.

I'm also posting a link to Commander William S. Donaldson's website that contains links to all of his raw data, including radar analysis and other imagery.

Arm chair QB: An Arleigh Burk destroyer off the coast of MD or VA tested a SM 2 missile configured for anti-sat mode.

Okay, but it wasn’t the center fuel tanks.

5.56mm

To my knowledge no B-747s were grounded after the findings’
Does anyone remember?
Many things about the investigation do not add up.
I have seen the documentary about it and it raises valid questions. It was NOT an open and shut case as the FBI and NTSB would want us to believe.
