TWA Flight 800 was a tragic incident involving the explosion of Trans World Airlines or TWA Flight 800, a Boeing 747-100, on July 17th, 1996. The aircraft was en route from John F. Kennedy International Airport in New York City to Charles de Gaulle Airport in Paris, France. The flight experienced a catastrophic event shortly after takeoff, resulting in the deaths of all 230 people on board. The aircraft exploded in mid-air about 12 minutes after takeoff, off the coast of East Moriches, New York. The explosion resulted in the disintegration of the airplane, and the wreckage fell into the Atlantic Ocean. The National Transportation Safety Board or NTSB, conducted an extensive investigation into the crash. The investigation involved recovery of wreckage from the ocean, analysis of eyewitness accounts, and examination of various possible causes. The official conclusion of the NTSB was that the probable cause of the explosion was a fuel/air mixture in the center-wing fuel tank that ignited from faulty wiring. The source of the ignition was undetermined, but the investigation ruled out a missile or terrorist attack. The investigation and official findings faced criticism and skepticism from some quarters. Various conspiracy theories and alternative explanations were proposed, including the possibility of a missile strike. However, the FBI and NTSB concluded that any alternative theories were not substantiated by the available evidence. However, there is unquestionable anomalous contradictory evidence that proves the crash did not occur as a result of a mechanical failure, despite what government officials have touted over the years. If that’s the case, then what or why was the plane brought down and why hasn’t any other dated Boeing 747 just suddenly exploded in mid-air over the past two decades since the crash?
