Surface to air missile. They’re still wondering?
I remember the couple who lived on long island and brought their tape to the today show a day or so later. They played the video on air and there was no mistaking the bright orange streak chasing the plane before it exploded. There was never any mention of the video ever again.
Millions of us watched the news that night of a video shot from the outdoor patio of a bar (New Jersey?) overlooking the ocean.
The talking heads aired the video of a streak of light rising up from water surface, then moments later a fireball in the sky.
