Thanks for reminding me of this article. I read it way back when.
To this day I am convinced that TWA-800 was brought down by one or two MANPAD missiles shot at it by terrorists who DID admit blame but whose claims were ignored and deliberately downplayed.
The despicable actions of the CIA and NTSB in denigrating the over 700 eyewitnesses by creating fantasy cartoons, denying basic physical laws, only served to cement my convictions.
I thought that you might have. Newer signups have missed a lot of background info on Flight 800.
