Thanks for the ping, 4zoltan.

My advice to all y’all:

Get the Puentes vid and step through it frame-by-frame using a good playback program.

One can see the hand grab the seat back in front of Puentes’ seat, and there are a pair of black pants & shoes that come into view along with the hand reaching forward and turning.

The hand is that of a person, not a mannikin.

One can also see how much room was in the front and back of the plane; not enough for a manikin or extra persons.

Underwater views show there wasn’t anything to stand on, and there were —just the passengers— in the water.

The part of the vid where Fuddy is next to Yamamoto shows her knees coming up out of the water as she is moving her legs; she is —leaning back— so one can barely see her head.

No divers.

Then you see that she isn’t moving.

The important part of that segment is that it’s close to the time, and may be showing the actual time, that she passed.

Yamamoto was the last one to see her alive.

I’d say —he— is a ‘person of interest’; anything else, such as divers, is a diversion and distraction.

Did —he— have the means, motive, and opportunity?

Those are the questions that ought to be asked.

IIRC the plane was left unattended on the small airfield while she went about her business...if that aircraft had been tampered with, all nine of them were meant to die, including her assistant Yamamoto. Do we have testimony of the pilot in regard to the aircraft's security? I don't recall it ever being mentioned. She was obese. A poor candidate for survival.

A panic attack might have caused an irregular heartbeat. Her cholesterol would have been through the roof...
