You bring up an interesting point about the prosecution in the Reid case releasing the video of a shoe bomb exploding in a 747. The only problem is that the video was not shot specifically for this case, it was done years earlier.
So, why would the government run an experiment about shoe bombs on 747s without it ever happening before? God knows there are plenty of terrorist scenario's possible and of course they don't test them all just to see what would happen. So maybe that experiment was testing the very plausible hypothesis of a shoe bomb bringing down Flight 800... Ok, I'll take off my tin hat now:)
