If this is truly a conspiracy, why is there "zero" investgation reports of who was onboard that the government wanted to eliminate?

Gentlemen, I had a friend on 800 and I'm a pilot and AP tech. If you believe anything the NTSB and CIA has said on this event your a media fool. It's incredibly rediculous and impossible. Ever have a CG shift event? I hope I live to see the day the truth comes out. I saw a video when it happened that clearly showed 2 trails upward, that footage disappeared within hours of the event. This still pisses me off.

The collision warning system ALWAYS records when there is a potential collision... for an example please see the DHL 757 and Tu-154 mid air collision watch?v=-U0AxIwJpYsThe flight data recorder on both of those aircraft indicated a collision, I'm confident that the same was true on Flight 800... this is BASIC flight information.

Ah I get your point. There would have been some sort of collision warning system - certianly the cockpits I've seen have them - but whether or not that info gets recorded with the flight data, who knows?Also, missiles move so fast, maybe that made a difference to the flight data. Collision warning system didn't have long enough to record, or something. I don't know, I'm just guessing at this point.

I don't mean to dodge, at least the instrument in the cockpit would be able to pick up the incoming missile and sound an alert beep, then the cockpit voice recorder would have recorded the unusual event ... (unless there wasn't a missile attack alert system installed ... that's what I wondere)

Even if the pilots knew there was a missile (or two, or whatever) heading for them, there's fuck all they can do about it. Commercial airliners, especially ones the size of 747s, don't have the manoeuvrability to dodge missiles. I suppose they could radio it in and hope a fighter jet gets scrambled quickly enough to shoot it down, or maybe another surface launched missile could take it down, but the pilot couldn't bust some Top Gun moves and dodge the missile. He'd rip the plane to pieces.

namsook (December 31, 1969 at 11:59 pm)

I don't understand one point. I don't know much about airplanes, just saw this in movies, when a comercial airliner like a 747 being targeted by an incoming missile, would there be an alart beep from the cockpit? that way, the pilots would be alarted that missiles are approaching so that they can do something about it? I'm just wondering this, not saying there was no missile attack ...

witnesses are always discredited....just standard dis-information.covering up information is a criminal act, this alone makes the government story suspect.I smell a rat...

Missile, no question. This reeks of JFK, Pearl Harbor, Gulf of Tonkin, USS Liberty, and most of all 9/11. The weasels are entrenched.

It was a missile. Radar confirms a high speed object hitting the plane... You can not argue with that.
