"False allegations? Would you care to expand on that?"
You've had ample time now to carefully review the documented report of the 2 witnesses who put the massive fireball explosion below 8500 feet thereby conclusively ruling out any possibility that TWA 800 was the victim of a missile(s) shootdown.
"Six hundred people saw the missile and I'm supposed to disbelieve their lying eyes and take your word for it.
False allegations such as that serve no constructive purpose.
Here are two witnesses who prepared their own report and clearly indicate the massive fireball explosion was below 8500 feet, NOT at 13,800 feet as the conspiracy theorists have been alleging for over 11 years. http://208.65.234.212/flight_800.shtml.
The usual "shootdown" allegations obviously are incompatible with that documented evidence.
Your assertion is not accurate. The following was the response to an earlier similar contention:
THE LINDA KABOT PHOTO The photo taken by Kabot depicts a bearing of north/northeast. TWA Flight 800 was south/southwest almost directly behind her. Photograph analyzed by CIA National Imagery and Mapping Administration (NIMA) advised that 1. THERE IS OBJECT IN PHOTO 2. OBJECT IS NOT A MISSILE
3. OBJECT APPEARS TO BE AN AIRCRAFT Not possible to ID aircraft because: Not possible to determine distance of object from camera. Exact time of photo unknown. (time frame only is known) Insufficient detail in photo to determine type of aircraft. 4. OBJECT IS NOT A DRONE No drone exercises conducted near Long Island July 17, 1996 http://judiciary.senate.gov/oldsite/51099lsa.htm
http://www.newsmax.com/archives/articles/2003/9/4/124854.shtml The evidence is very clear that the fuel tank did not explode when the plane was above 13,000 feet and lost its nose. A pilot who observed the accident from an altitude of 8,500 feet says that TWA 800 was a thousand feet below him when the fuel tank burst into flames, creating a trail of black smoke.
Who was the author of that NewsMax article? Reed Irvine of Accuracy In Media - another ardent supporter of the missile shootdown notion.
Most believe that TWA 800 exploded in a huge fireball at 13,800 feet. However, that huge fireball explosion took place below 7,500 feet - perhaps as low as 5,000 feet. One of FreeRepublic's most ardent missile shootdown conspiracy theorists, Swordmaker, puts that huge fireball explosion at about 7,000 feet
The key witnesses are Sven Faret & Ken Wendell who prepared their own detailed report. They were flying at about 8,500 feet and saw the huge fireball explode below that altitude, flew over to the smoke cloud it left and determined that the top of it was at 7,500 feet
The brief fiery streak, seized upon by the conspiracy theorists as a missile, appears to have been the ignition source of the huge fireball explosion as evidenced ty the fact that by then all of the wreckage had been falling for quite some time.
Additionally, ten expert metallurgists (four from NTSB, three from Boeing, two from FBI Laboratory, and one scientist consultant) determined from their own extensive examinations of the wreckage that there was no evidence that TWA 800 was the victim of a missile(s) shootdown.
