Here's some details from Insight on the pellets found in some Flight 800 victims:

According to Stalcup, "More than that, we have information that shows that 20 unusual .2-inch-diameter round pellets that were found in bodies were withheld from the NTSB but analyzed by the FBI and found to have been made of aluminum titanium matrix and other elements like zirconium, barium and cerium. These are pyrotechnics or incendiary devices, and the matrix structure of these objects is consistent with pellets used in antiaircraft missiles."

The FIRO chairman continues: "In fact, I found a quote in National Defense magazine that was referring to warheads that said 'pellets imbedded in titanium matrix' are used in antiaircraft warheads. The 'secret' [Brookhaven] report analysis concluded that the origin of the pellets is 'unknown' and that one of the pellets was submitted for identification because of its dissimilarity in appearance with TWA 800 debris. ...'"

Consistent with pellets used WHERE in antiaircraft missiles, and which missiles? Sorry, but this is just baloney. Note the complete lack of actual sources or details. "I found a quote in a National Defense magazine"?!?!?! Give me a break. This is flawed guesswork by non-experts desparately trying to find something to base their faulty theories on. Neither the fuel, explosive or warheads of antiaircraft missiles are composed of pellets.
