I guess military pilots don’t count then, huh?
“A news article written by the Associated Press quoted a military-trained helicopter pilot named Frederick C Meyer, who was flying an Air National Guard H-60 Black Hawk helicopter on a training mission,was among the first of many eyewitnesses to report having seen a “light Streak” arcing in the sky before the jet exploded.”

Scenario-4: China launches off US coast to let US know it is not happy with QE2 ...
Still may fav guess. What if the trajectory of the missile was intentionally aimed (though would fall way short) towards the nation that launched it, as a clue? False Flag Diversion? Maybe this NW(?) aimed missile points to Beijing.
didnt the Chicoms surface one of their subs in the middle of one of our battle groups in the Pacific, and no one ever saw them coming until the conning tower broke water?
Yes.

... PAVE PAWS at Beale AFB ...
A little ways inland don't ya think?
They won't have seen much until the 'target' gained some altitude (a few thousand feet) from where Beale AFB is located ...

...He said, well, what you saw is the latest technology, it is rocket powered and it is orbital. It is to replace the space shuttle. But this was launched from the water. Doesn't jive.

Technical problem with the launch sequence that required an emergency launch/burn-off?

09 NOV 20:00 2010 UNTIL 10 NOV 01:00 2010. CREATED: 08 NOV 20:52 2010 Looks like they just cleared the airspace for whatever activities they expect (like that helicopter photo above) right after the news reached some decision-makers at the Pentagon.

There is a volcano earthquake activity over there?

All the news I know is on this thread.
To: Andy from Chapel Hill
Interesting. It could be that Obama was there to tell India that we were now in charge of their arsenal since they can’t maintain it safely.
To: McGruff
There was also reports of a launch of some kind around Phoenix that didn’t get as much play.
(tin foil) Was the LA launch a distraction for the Phoenix launch?(/tin foil>

U asked him if there was anything to worry about, he said, not yet, not stateside. He said Obama was there for containment and this is a HUGE deal. You will NOT read about this nuclear event on the news. But this is an event of epic proportion.Problem: Obama's visit has been scheduled since many months ago.
June, 2010, even.

I like mother nature's predominance on the issue (vis-a-vis the laws of nature ala 'physics') thank you ... (curvature of the earth inverse square law for propagation, inverse quad law for RADAR returns, blocking mountains, no-seeing in valleys, et cetera)

I don't want to say. Officers in the military are NOT allowed to outright LIE to the press or public. They can say “no comment” or “we cannot discuss it at this time”, or “that's classified”, but to outright lie?
I find it incredible they are saying they don't know what it is?!!!???
Well, possible, but much, much more frightening to me.
We have guys and gals watching all night, every day, every hour. They saw it. Depend on it.

There is NO WAY this was accidental. The whole point of a Missile carrying Boomer is to launch those weapons. It takes every crew member doing his job to accomplish it. Its a crew effort. It isn’t a push-a-button operation by any means. Shoot the Captain and XO BOTH have to be present to even start the process to launch, and the whole boat knows it’s going on. Its dead serious and it is their job, their whole point.
This was not an accident.

Except when two different 737s were also destroyed by center fuel tank exposions.Really? Where and when?
A friend of mine, a test/training pilot for Boeing for nearly 15 years (he's retired) at the time didn't buy into the fuel tank explosion theory. He said there was no precedent that he was aware of ... that was back in 1996/97.
