But they did say they had a specific reason, a short in the fuel tank. They even recall automobiles when they have a specific reason that causes them to crash or endanger its occupants.

But the don't ban those autos from the road until the recall is fixed. And in the TWA case I believe the FAA did issue a directive outlining corrective actions to be done.

I have a cousin who worked as an electrical engineer at Boeing for 35 yrs. He says that the insulation around the probes in the fuel tank(the supposed cause of the explosion)could never have a crack in them. No rubbing, no chemical reaction against aviation fuel, and vibration under the location they were in, would take thousands of yrs.

As some of my former colleagues pointed out at the time, when they became aware of the cover-up, jet fuel is very different from gasoline. That the jet fuel ignited from a short is not credible. There were not only the multiple ordinary observers on the ground that saw the missile, there was other evidence of it, never revealed.
