[My Identity]

Safety investigators found no evidence of engine failure, fire, explosives or contact with birds

Did they find any evidence of a crash?

[My Identity]

The board said 52 percent of the eyewitnesses said they saw a fire aboard the plane. Another 20 percent said they didn't see any fire.

This is not necessarily inconsistent or contradictory.
Depending on their viewing position, moment of visual
contact, orientation of sun, etc some aspects may not
be visible to all viewers. But 52% seeing flames is a
certainty.

[My Identity]

18 percent of the witnesses said the plane turned right, while another 18 percent said the plane turned left. Twenty percent said they didn't see any smoke, while 22 percent said they did.

Again, this is not surprising. And given the clumsiness of interviews, I wouldn't be surprised if the questions were imprecise.

Is this the start of a two year, FreeRepublic.Com conspiracy, aliens brought the plane down thread?

[DeaconRed]

It was a shoe bomber just like TWA 800.
If that idiot hadn't botched it, there would have been another one over the Atlantic, and the FEDS would be scratching their heads, looking for fumes from the fuel tank etc.

"The board is trying to find out the cause of the accident"..........

It was that darn food and beverage cart. That darn thing rolled recklessly out of control to the back of the plane causing the tail to fall off in midair. Simple, nothing here. Skip on down!

[Huck]

For example, 18 percent of the witnesses said the plane turned right, while another 18 percent said the plane turned left.

Which way did they go? Which way did they go?

First, there are films of the plane. Do the films show smoke? I don't remember seeing smoke on the film on tv, but there is also a film by a camera on one of the highways that I haven't seen. Any freepers rememberthe films? It is not unusual for people to "remember" an airplane in flames when they see a crash, even when there was no flames.

Second, if you really want a conspiracy theory, then explain how the tail fell off and then the engines fell off. I understand it was supposed to be turbulance, but would turbulance at low levels make all three things fall off?,

Third, did anyone catch Bevelaqua on Fox and friends, when they asked him about stinger missles, he said bluntly that that had probably happened with TWA 800. That was early AM. By the time of the evening news shows, when they asked him, he changed the story. Does anyone else remember this?

...Flight 587 went down just 5 hours after I got off my own Flight from Washington, D.C. Veterans Day Weekend activites at the Vietnam Wall. A cross country flight I took knowing full well that there would probably be another Jet Airliner going down that very weekend.

...What better time for Terrorists to strike to divert us away from honoring our War Veterans with more wall to wall TV Disaster Coverage in a new -Time of War- ...in a new Century ..with an Enemy that is now just around the corner and ..up your street...?
