I don't have access where I am to my TWA files, so I don't know how much information I have on the provenance of the radar tapes that show the movement of the various objects in the area of the crash.
You are a mad man. There are so many crazy statements in this thread, I'm having a tough time trying to keep them straight.
1. Ships/Subs on Radar - We're talking ATC radars here, which even in the best of circumstances often have inconsistent low altitude coverage - of airplanes. They're certainly not designed to see ships. In fact, based on the specific application (Secondary Surveillance - interrogating aircraft IFF/SIF) many of these are pulse-doppler radars. They're designed to see the airplanes transponder, and failing that, to get a "skin paint" on an aircraft above a certain radial velocity. Any ship or sub would get filtered out with the rest of the ground clutter.
2. SAMs - A SAM system is extremely complex, and often operates only within the smallest envelope of effectiveness. An SA-7 or SA-14 is going to be a rear-aspect shot only, and of extremely short range and low altitude. They will also either strike the engine or wing near the engine. It's also unlikely an SA-7/14 would cause an immediate catastrophic loss of the aircraft. They have very small warheads. Lastly, it's unlikely that the terrorists/Clintons/aliens would have deployed on SA-2 or SA-6 on the United States coast.
You are a mad man. Ah, the old ad-hominem. You can always count on statements like this from folks with nothing to contribute.
I wonder if you have ever seen the NTSB's own data from the BlackBox recorder. I mean the first version they released, which indicates that there was explosion outside the aircraft, rather than the "corrected" one which removed data supposely left over from an earlier flight.
