Bolid.
The zoom climb must be real. I saw it on TV.
The truth WILL OUT.
Operation Clinton Cleanup takes one step forward...
What's a bolid?
If you mean "Bolide" then it had to have come through the Earth... triangulation of the eye witnesses show that it could not have come from beyond the horizon relative to any witness.
Silly peasant.
Strange case.
The eyewitnesses would perceive it as an object rising up from the Earth to hit something.
Ever been in an airplane struck by lightning? Happens with some frequency BTW. Every now and then lightning will take a plane out of operation.
Here we have a rock flying in from space and taking out a plane. Won't happen all that often, but it can't be ruled out.
After looking at all the available evidence in the months after it happened, it became evident to me that TWA 800 was almost certainly brought down by a missile.
There were two possible theories: that the missile was fired by American forces taking part in a naval exercise in the area; or that the missile was fired by Muslim terrorists in a small boat.
I think the naval hypothesis is almost impossible. Too many people would have known what happened, and leaks would have been inevitable. There have been no such leaks from the Navy.
Why would clinton have covered it up? Because he wanted to protect the Navy, or because he wanted to avoid having to do something about Arab terrorists? Frankly, I think he would have been far more worried about having to deal with the terrorists than he would have been concerned about the Navy's reputation. He and hillary (and Chelsea too) hated the military.
On the other hand, he had a long record of avoiding any need to deal with terrorism by looking the other way.
Ray Lahr deserves our thanks for following this up. The current administration has shown no interest in uncovering clinton's crimes. Indeed, Bush's chosen director of the FBI, Mueller, awarded a special medal and promotion to the FBI agent who was in charge of covering up TWA 800 for clinton.
As I stated triangulation of eye witnesses show that it could not have been a bolide. Only eye witnesses looking at a bolide ~180º from its direction of approach will see it rise from the horizon... others would see it approach horizontally across the sky. That was NOT the case. Ergo it was not a bolide.
Eye witnesses West of TWA800 saw it come from the surface. Others that were North saw it come from the surface. More from the South saw it rise from the surface. And yet others who were East of the plane saw the "missile" rise from the surface. If it were a bolide, only 1/4 of these would mis-perceive the object as coming from the surface.
Certainly some of the eye witnesses who were in the air, above TWA800, would not have described it as they did were it a bolide.
I agree re: missile. The fact is that center fuel tanks simply don't do what they said. Jet fuel is about as flammable as charcoal lighter stuff, it works well under pressure and controlled conditions in the engine, but propane or gasoline it ain't.
And the laws of large numbers argues against it. There have been tens of millions of aircraft flights, and this center tank thingy happens JUST ONCE???
Not to mention that Boeing is the greatest aircraft manufacturer ever and despite what some may say, pays alot of attention to quality and safety. They probably have thousands of terrabytes of flight data recording info.
That will be consistent with "government" management of evidence ever since the Kennedy assassination.
An engine tore off the port mounting of a DC-10 only once (Flight 191 in Chicago, 1979). A cargo hatch blew out on a DC-10 once (Turkish Airlines, Flight 881, 1974). The thrust reverse system deployed in flight on a 767 once (Lauda Air, Flight 004, 1991). A lot of things happen once, mainly because corrective actions are taken.
Good points, all. But I still think it does, as I said, argue against it.
In fact I should amend my position a bit because supposedely there was a Singapore Airlines 737 that went down in 1990 due to a fuel tank explosion.
Alot of good info here.
