Sharkey explained, thanks, a few posts earlier. I think you both were discussing some book about a plane in the mid-90s that went down ten minutes after take-off. It sounded intriguing but I missed your original conversation.
evening all!
FYI, sharky, and all, I was on some of those first and very early threads re that flight. There were lots of posts made about eyewitnesses to hearing an explosion or seeing what looked like an explosion....and then the area of explosion on the plane didn't coincide with the later reports. Also, the other oddity was that immediately after the plane was down, it was declared that it was NOT a terrorist act....even though no investigation could have even been performed yet. I didn't stay on that thread forever, but did for quite some time. If I recall, there were experts in their fields (investigators, engineers, etc.), commenting on the oddities based on what they knew, generally, and what the news was....seemed to not be "right."
I have discussed that in the pass but not unitl I read you question today....I was talking about the beheading of the NJ family!
"American Family Beheaded on American Soil. Welcome Bin Laden."
