Sorry..but I don’t believe the whole truth has been disclosed regarding TWA 800 or the Oklahoma City bombing.

"It's like they're waiting for another fuel tank to explode before they act," said Hurd, vice president of the Families of TWA Flight 800 Association.It's going to be a long wait - unless some surface to air missile makes a direct strike on a 747 fuel tank.

They are going to wait a long time for the fuel tank to blow. I don’t think it will ever happen again.

The only reason they need to fear the fuel tanks is if a missle hits them.

Yet 11 years after the center fuel tank of TWA Flight 800 caught fire, killing 230 people, the Federal Aviation Administration still does not require commercial jetliners to carry devices to make the fuel in their tanks inert, That because they know this is phonier than a three dollar bill.

Good angle. What better way to get truth out than to force industry to spend billions on something unnecessary.

I have no problem with safety. But, I do have problems with the way the investigation was done and with the information the investigators chose to not include. I am not saying that a frayed low voltage (high current?) wire could not have caused a fuel tank explosion. The military recognizes the potential and uses nitrogen systems to prevent f.t. explosions.
However, they are very rare in commercial and private aircraft, even in piston aircraft which use a much more volitile fuel. For that matter, they are rare even in automobiles which also use a more volitial fuel than a jet.
What I am saying is that, in the age of Islamic terror and during a Clinton administration which chose to ignore it and which also had so many questionable events with even more questionable explanations, the official cause of Flt 800's demise is more difficult to believe.

I still think that center fuel tank story is a cover story for what really happened. There were just too many people who saw something else that day.

It’s pretty apparent, isn’t it, that the aviation community doesn’t believe that that fuel tank exploded.
To: Hal1950
If it was actually the fuel tanks, they would have grounded 747’s the next day. Nope. It isn’t the fuel tanks.
