There was an Algerian who was supposed to be on the Ron Brown flight but who canceled at the last moment who died on TWA 800. I forget his name, but I'm sure someone on FR will remember.
He also had taken out so much life insurance shortly before TWA 800 that he and his family came under investigation. I'm not suggesting he caused the crash -- I don't think he did. I think he may have been aware that people were after him and have acted accordingly.
Hmmm.Maybe thats what I had heard.Still,as far as Im concerned,the jury is still out on the centerline fuel tank.
