[Real World Aviation] Everyone remember? There was so much speculation over the incident as to whether faulty wiring in the center tank or an impact by an anti aircraft weapon was to blame. Well today we have discovered that several retired NTSB investigators, including the lead investigator has come forward siting they believe the incident was caused externally and not due to a fault with the aircraft citing that they were not allowed to speak in regards to these findings to the public or refute any comments made by the FBI/NTSB. They are calling for the investigation to be reopened. In the meantime, these former NTSB investigators will be airing their findings in an upcoming documentary. All I can say is: WOW! I was always on the fence on this... Anyone else think it was a missile?

I'd always thought their official findings were bullcrap and that it was a coverup. Now the question is, who/what exactly shot it down?
Something so similar to one of my homecountry disaster. Itavia 897 (Ustica Disaster), never released an official report. Probably shoot by French thinking it was Gheddafi's Aircraft...
Here's a good write up. http://whatreallyhappened.com/RANCHO/CRASH/TWA/twa.php
There was a conspiracy theory with regards to Lockerbie as well, that it was an Iranian revenge attack for the American shootdown of the Iran Air A300 earlier and somehow Gaddafi got involved as an intermediary. The US needed a reason to bash Gaddafi and any connection between Lockerbie and Iran may bring a sense of "We brought this onto ourselves" with major domestic political consequences for the US military. Gaddafi was IMO always a bit eccentric and It kind of reminded me of Saddam Hussein, who sort of pretended that he has WMDs and obstructed the UN inspectors even when it became obvious that his regime is going to fall unless he tell the truth.
As for TWA800, a fuel tank vapour explosion is certainly possible, as it happened again a while later with a Thai 737 during a turnaround. Oddly enough IIRC the Thai Prime Minister was due to board that very same aircraft and he narrowly escaped death.
Such an awful story, the thought of passengers being alive when the plane split in two parts....i cant imagine the terror. I read that many bodies found were missing limbs, heads etc etc from flying objects while it climbed and then dropped towards the sea not forgetting that impact too...Any incident that happens in mid air just sends chills down my spine...Pan-am 103, Air India 182, United 811....
I really hope the truth FINALLY comes out on this as the families of those killed deserve nothing less. I've always said this was a cover up since seeing the clip on Nightly news that actually showed a bright object ascending right before the explosion. Then somehow this video was mysteriously immediately erased from existence and never shown again!
This should be a HUGE scandal, and one that starts at the top down. I can't count how many FBI/NTSB I've seen on TV adamantly stating it was an internal explosion. What a travesty.
Probably shot down by the CIA
