The government IS NOT FOCUSING on wake turbulence..at this point, this is a "straw-man" argument by the foil-hatters.

They are focusing on weakness/fatigue of the vertical stabilizer composites. That the plane simply had a structural failure doesn't exactly reassure people who are afraid of flying, does it?

This account does not take into account the multiple eyewitness reports of "fire" or "smoke" or "explosion." Some seeing more than one explosion.

A retired police lietenant, and a retired fireman. Two men trained to notice important details. One VERY familiar with "fire" and "explosion." Both men SWEAR they saw not one, but TWO explosions. BOTH saw a smaller explosion followed by a larger explosion.

One states he knows at least 13 other people who saw "fire" or "explosion."

YOU can discount this info if you want, but I believe these men.
