OK. Then perhaps you can explain exactly how much higher the aircraft will fly. Based on your calculations and knowledge, how much higher will a 747 that is climbing at 2000 feet per minute climb after losing its nose and pitching upward. Or are you one of the folks who want to claim an object weighing 574,000 pounds with an upward momentum vector instantly reverses that vector and falls like a stone by shedding 80,000 of those pounds?

It depends upon when the wings separated, and that depends on which senario (government/witness) you accept. My own opinion is that the wings were blown off on the secondary explosion, which happened about 15 seconds after the first.
The debris trail recovered from the ocean floor supports that.
