My suspicion of a cover up came into play early on ... James Kallstrom the lead FBI official investigating TWA Flt. 800 initially was investigating the missile theory. Less than three days into the investigation he was summoned to Washington. When he returned the investigation shifted immediately to the exploding empty fuel tank theory which is now the reason cited for the explosion that destroyed the aircraft. This was a cover up no question ...

Also Doppler shift on the frequency of your radar return can tell you the velocity of something.

According to the NTSB report the radar in question did not record altitude data.....
**************
The transponder in TWA800 would have been broadcasting altitude data.

***Who was on the plane?***

Well, I have nothing to verify this information with, but a friend of ours claims to be ex-CIA. When 800 was blown up, he told us that there was a person related to the 1993 WTC bombing on that airplane. He said that’s what he heard through his grapevine. He was pretty shaken up about it, and told us in strictest confidentiality. Mind you, I have no idea if any of it is true, but it has always made me wonder.

“the ship’s crew would all have knowledge of the event”

It could be only a few people on board knew. It is not like many people on the ship, at night, can see outside.

It was my thought at the time that some of those Stinger missiles had fallen into the hands of a terrorist cell and they brought it down.
I can see why the Clintons would want to hide that little fact, because it would have shut down all international air travel just like 9/11 eventually did. Plus the US would have been liable for millions of dollars in liability lawsuits, which would mean a ‘discovery’ process that would have been devastating to them personally and politically.
George Stephanopolous ‘accidentally’ let a Freudian slip come out at that time a little while later and referred to it as a ‘terrorist’ incident......................

“but utterly useless for determining the difference between high and low velocity explosions.”

Wrong. Doppler shift would still tell you want you want to know.

And all of them, every one, was said to have confused the trail of the missile for a reflection off the water. Sickening.

Why not tell the American people, who are supposed to own our military? Why not mea culpa, $ to the families, sadness, mourning, openness, honesty????

They might have blamed St. Bill, who was "too busy running the country" and had a "very important election" coming up.

How many incidents of center fuel tank explosions have there been in the history of airliner flying?

As was I.

Does anyone else remember an animation shown on CNN that showed a small meteor striking the plane? Only saw it the once.

isn’t what the statement says. it says they had a hard radar return on a vertical moving object close to the airplanes path just before the plane went off radar. Didn’t state that the radar discriminated the explosion.

50 state landslide for Trump if this gets recognizef as a Clinton cover-up of a terrorist attack.

That hasn't happened in 20 years so far.

Logically it was from a USN asset - most likely a sub

And how would that work exactly?

In 2000 the first paper on perhaps discerning doppler shift using an ASM-9 radar data stream was published, which has since been cited by 16 other technical papers.

That was four years after the accident.

Not only is it possible, it has happened.

When? Details please.

You cannot fire a missile like a RIM-66 Standard without everyone on the ship knowing about it.
