TWA 800? Isn’t that the one that was hit by a missle off of Long Island?
So... what is CNN claiming? That the missle hit the fuel tank?

Yes that’s the one. CNN program was about one man whose sister died in TWA800 crash and, I think, his determination for all us airlines to be retrofitted with a new technology that will prevent more crashes like the one in which his siter died........by preventing more fuel tank explosions......I didn’t get to hear the entire program but basically it was another (fruitless) attempt to convince the American flying public that all those planes that have been falling out of the sky due to fuel tank explosions can be prevented if the stubborn American Air carriers would just bite the bullet and foot the billion dollar or so bill to upfit their planes.

Of course, there have been no more jets falling out of the sky from center fuel tank explosions....but don’t let the facts prevent you from swallowing this swill of garbage.
