I never bought the exploding fuel tank business, it was almost surely shot down.
Airline pilots and plane mechanics never bought that theory either.
“I never bought the exploding fuel tank business, it was almost surely shot down.”
I agree. There are thousands of aircraft with that same exact type of wiring as found in TWA800, and they’re not going KABOOM in midair.
The only other crash that I know of that was wiring related was the SwissAir 111 that had a fire in the cockpit causing a crash off Nova Scotia.
