My god mother was on the flight and lost her life. I remembered my mother was frantically calling around screaming because she knew that my god mother was scheduled to fly back into the United States. Once her death was confirmed I never heard my mother scream in pain so loud like she did when officials confirmed her death. I was young and did not understand the magnitude of what had happened. I just knew that my mother was devastated and that I mourned her loss. Even in 2023 it’s still painful to think about the crash and loosing her let alone watching the video. I really admired her ambition, discipline and drive to succeed in life and wanted to follow her lead when I grew up. And that part alone never goes away.

I was supposed to be on this flight. Economy class, seat 27A. I changed my reservation five days prior. I know I am fortunate, but it’s always weighed heavily on me. God bless all the victims of PanAm103 and the 11 Lockerbie villagers who died.

My obsession with this case continues to this day. Why? I was 15 at the time, and that day I had broken my leg, informed of the crash as I had the cast set. Later I found out that a local man who I was familiar with was on the plane. I will never forget Lockerbie, and remain obsessed with the case as long as it’s still open.

In an interview with the former South African foreign minister, Mr Pik Botha, he explained how he and his colleagues were supposed to be travelling on the this flight. They were on their way to New York for a meeting with the Cuban and Russian delegations regarding a ceasefire in the Angolan bush war. Their connecting flight from Munich to London was delayed and they did not board the flight. There is a connection between Libya and the African National Congress. The Libyans supported the ANC during the armed struggle. Pik Botha didnt say it out loud but he left no doubt who the target was and who the South African government thought was responsible for this bombing. It wasnt the Libyans but they did take the blame to cover for the ANC.

the fact that they knew SO much at such early time is impressive! they have not even done the black boxes yet. interesting watch knowing what we know now, makes it all more interesting, this case was NEVER totally solved, and 90 percent of all the suspects are now dead.

Certainly hasn't studied tact or compassion.

It was an appalling tragedy that 270 people lost their lives at the hands of vile terrorists. The doomed airline went out of buisness a few years later.

Wow! Real heartfelt Sec of State, Schultz. He reads off a paper, “We…grieve…for…all…those…who…lost…their…lives.” Gee! He could not say that without a written prompt??? Pathetic!

He was a good man, probably exhausted and thrown a required script 2 seconds before he read it. So many politicians are mandated to read what’s provided, especially in international events, just to be completely careful. Crazy to think that George Schultz only recently died, after making the terrible error in believing Elizabeth Holmes and Theranos. Crazy. Even worse is to imagine that dipshit Joe Biden was actually elected President of the United States of America. He was long known as being the dumbest idiot ever to enter politics. 🤦🏼‍♀️

@9:30 I just realized this guy actually has a Scottish accent but it is just so posh it sounds English. I am Scottish myself and thought he was English.

Typical Prince Andrew, innit? The man’s a fucking idiot, and that’s the nicest thing I have to say about him.

Warning of possible bomb on Pan am plane. If you cancel flights you cancel flights you leave yourself and every open to blackmail if you don't you have loss of life on your conscience. They called it wrong I would have cancelled

Funny how the ENTIRE plane that "crashed" in Pennsylvania entirely vapourised on 911 whereas this plane clearly fell to earth. So sad.

Look at pictures of the aftermath of Ethiopian Airways Flight 302, which crashed at an estimated speed of just under 700MPH. Very little of that plane survived, mostly just fragments. Also noteworthy is the 737 Max crashed at a far more shallow angle than United 93

Prince Andrew, we knew it would happen but thank fuck it was in Scotland

Omg that is cringe material coming from prince andrew, what a fanny

No no no

Reason why real culprits were not discovered and apprehended that this crash was clearly a retaliation of Iran air 655 which was deliberately shot down 6 months ago and Iran avanged its people's death. Politics overcome personal grief always.

accorded to Libyan information they accused a Libyan person when his luggage with Israel person that from Duluth MN who carried the bag . the bag stolen from the Libyan person by Israeli personal stuffed by them sent with this personal not known whats in it ..

This tragedy is, and always was, a revenger attack for the downing of the Iranian aircraft with the loss of over 300 innocent civilians, by the USS Cruiser, Whose entire crew were decorated.

Robert Wilcock ......Whilst you are perfectly correct about Lockerbie being in revenge for the downing of an Iranian aircraft - most of your post is totally inaccurate. Here are the actual facts: 'On 3 July 1988, Iran Air flight 655 and all 290 passengers and crew onboard was blown out of the sky by two surface-to-air missiles launched at it by US cruiser, USS Vincennes. The crew of the US$3 billion Ticonderoga-class guided missile cruiser [equipped with the state-of-the-art 'Aegis Combat System' - which was and still is one the most advanced integrated naval weapons systems ever developed] inexplicably mistook an A300 Airbus for a F-14 jet fighter. [this is akin to confusing a small dog with a horse!] To make matters worse, US President Ronald Reagan openly praised and awarded 'Medals of Honour' to both the Captain of the USS Vincennes [William C. Rogers III] as well as the senior weaponry officer. As a result, the justifiably incensed Iranians ‘contracted’ the Syrian-Palestinian backed and Ahmed Jibril-led PFLP-GC [Popular Front for the Liberation of Palestine - General Command] to carry out revenge attacks on 5 American airplanes. A payment of US$10 million was agreed with Jibril for the attacks. [This action was code-named ‘Operation Intekam’ - which means ‘equal and just revenge’ in English]. The targets were to be on major American commercial airline operators with flights originating in Europe and to various destinations in the U.S. The Iranian's motivation was pure revenge and to fulfill the promise that the skies would "rain blood."
