@bexfun The official story is that the cockpit fell off. When it fell off, the rest of the plane suddenly began rising steeply. The ""experts"" say hundreds of eyewitnesses thought the rising plane was a missile. That pilot said the plane did not rise at all. He said the wings came off during the explosion. He said all of the pieces fell down. Several eyewitnesses saw a light on the horizon at sea level. They watched the object originate from the surface of the water and fly up to meet the plane. It's a big cover-up. No sane person could mistake an object originating from the surface of the water with a plane exploding at over 2 miles high in the sky.

That was me after learning about TWA Flight 800 from Final Destination series and I’ve never been the same since

I am from the UK and I was visiting my dad in Arizona at the time. I was 12 and I had gone as an unaccompanied child (they see you onto and off of the plane and hand you to your relatives). I had 8 weeks to go til I flew back from the day I heard about this. It was so tragic. I was so scared to fly back to the UK. On my journey home we flew over Gatwick and over the tannoy the Pilot announced that we had lost a tyre back in phoenix and that we were having to fly to Heathrow as it was a larger runway and airport and had more support there. I was holding the hand of the girl next to me who was also travelling unaccompanied from the announcement til when we approached the Heathrow runway...longest 10-15 mins of my life..the fear and the wondering of what was to come and the TWA was fresh in my mind. As we approached I could see the fire engines on standby. So glad to say that we landed without incident and I've never been so relieved in my life. I remember thinking that I hope those on the TWA instant didn't know anything and that it is as instant. Knowing something will happen, I can't fully imagine but I know I had a taster of the fear and it was horrendous. Also what stuck in my mind was that my mum and stepdad were at Gatwick waiting for me and they were telling me how the board just suddenly said 'delayed' and they knew we were mid air at the time. The panic on everyone was palpable apparently as you can imagine. Imagine what all the TWA victims families were feeling standing there watching and waiting for their loved ones. Tragic and harrowing. The TWA crash has stayed with me for the last 28!years as if I was an American. Back home noone really knew anything about it and that was hard as it had affected me but couldn't relate to anyone. Rip to all those souls on board and love to their families ❤

*_Former Boeing Everett - where 747's are produced._* I was working there in 1996 at the time of Accident. From the beginning, lots of confusion what happened and how do we prevent it from happening again. It wasn't until much later in 2000 that the Final Report was released. I have been inside the Center Fuel Tank on new 747's and they are big enough to walk through standing up. The likely culprit was the Center Fuel Tank exploded. It was empty at the time, but fumes from the Jet Fuel (refined Kerosene) ignited. At the time, it was hot and the aircraft was waiting for hours due to delays at JFK Airport. The AC equipment is located under the center fuel tank. Heat from the AC's heated up the Tank and the little fuel left on bottom. Wiring had damaged insulation, and a spark caused an explosion at 16,000 feet when it was still climbing. Front of plane blew off and fell to the ocean below. Rest of plane with wings climbed steeply because center of gravity shifted towards rear with front of plane now gone. It too fell into the ocean. There were no survivors. Since then, wire with this kind of insulation is no longer used. Older planes are inspected more frequently and wiring replaced if indicated. A better layer of insulation between the AC equipment was installed on older and all new aircraft to prevent heat from reaching tanks. Inert Nitrogen Gas is also used to replace any Air in Fuel Tanks. Air supports Combustion while Nitrogen prevents it. There have been no further Accidents of this kind since the New Safety Procedures went into effect.

Former aircraft mechanic in the 70's with com'l pilot's license. An empty fuel tank is FAR dangerous that a full one as it's the vapor of fuel and not the fuel itself that either burns or when it's concentrated explodes. Case in point: we had a C-130 cargo plane in front of our hanger, the fuel had been drained from the left wing, and (with breathing equipment) a mechanic was INSIDE the wing through a manhole cover on top of the wing. An inspector was standing on top of the wing signing off on his work. Some idiot threw a switch in the cockpit (marked with a red tag!), an electrical arc (spark) occurred in the wing. The force of the explosion obliterated the two men and blew the wing right off the aircraft. Conspiracy theories aside, the NTSB got it right when they figured out that the empty of fuel, (but not vapors) center tank was set off by an arcing electrical line that ran right through the tank. This is one of the hazards of aging aircraft that require more and more maintenance to keep them airworthy and flying.

Then there's no way a shoulder fire missile could have reached 13,700 alt @ 15 miles out to sea.Traveling at 800 mph. Best range on a SF is 550 yds. There's no way a SF missile can do that.

There was evidence of a missile but it was suppressed by the FBI. James Sanders and his wife Liz, a former TWA employee went to jail for simply getting a piece of the plane seat examined in a lab and it came back positive for nitrates. The radar data released via FOIA, showed the debris traveling at Mach 4. It wasn't a spark in the CWT, enough with the lies and deceit already. I have a myriad of contradictory evidence proving that you and your imaginary friend are full of shit. Whistleblowers came out years later confirming that the investigation was tainted from the get go by the FBI and the CIA.

No evidence of a missle, bomb, or explosive material other than jet fuel, corrrect? Someone for sure would have leaked that critical info if there was the slightest evidence me thinks. Too many investigators to all be in on something else, like a terrorist attack.

This only looks worse for Boeing today.

I remember hearing about Flight 800 that came across the news back in 1996 it was really bad and made me sick to my stomach

There are better documentaries. One showed the investigation into the fuel and electrical lines and their confuguration.

I remember this event very well as my sister was getting married and her husband was supposed to be in New York for Boeing and had struggled to get the time off to get married. He was a Boeing engineer and was supposed to be taking part in exercises with the military simulating a commercial airplane being flown into a New York skyscraper, we had talked about the exercises in regards to him getting the time off. The point is the military was supposed to track a plane and shoot it down but obviously there wasn’t supposed to be any live fire and I can tell you his phone was blowing up from his boss before the news was on the air, this exercise also confirmed for me George bush was lying on 9/11 when he claimed the government never considered someone would use airplanes to destroy buildings as we had budgeted money for and conducted exercises for that very scenario

I remember that night. I was at a concert (Chicago, Crosby Stills & Nash) at Fiddler's Green, which is in the Denver metro area. Heard about the crash from a fellow concert-goer.

God Bless him.....utterly tragic...

I remember that woman reporting that she had visions of this happening prior to the crash. The movie final destination was based around this psychic phenomena.

Nice "disclaimer" at the end, Kalstrom. The way the FBI and NTSB prosecuted journalists, selectively ignored CREDIBLE witnesses who saw 800 explode, even from from "ordnance" (remember the Army Guard helo pilot looking right at it?), the Mach 1.5+ radar returns, and on and on) was absolutely disgraceful. Then there's the REAL video that CNN played and so many of us saw from the deck that aired many times the next day before it was pulled? Many people know the the truth buddy. May God have mercy on you.

Fred Meyer, whom you refer to, told the authorities he saw a streak of light, then almost immediately a fireball which fell to the water in some 10 seconds. This supports the streak being a late stage event. He later decided to repudiate his own testimony because it didn't support his conviction he saw ordnance. While he states he has seen ordnance before, he does not say he ever saw a commercial airliner explode before. So how does he know that might not also resemble ordnance? "mach 1.5+ radar returns" might well be the most powerful case for a missile. The NTSB did take up this claim, questioning "the quality of the radar data representing this debris by citing information such as ½ nautical mile “scatter” between multiple FAA radar facilities. " This prompted a rebuttal by Tom Stalcup which to me demonstrates the futility of non-trained nonspecialists being able to figure all this out. Without a neutral platform to judge both sides, I cannot accept this argument as beyond reasonable doubt. Can you?

Totality. Are you saying this would be the first time a military man would be pressured to change his statement? The plane accelerated after being hit. A high AOA with the same power setting would decelerate the plane, not climb it- at least not for long as shown in that bogus CIA animation. Notice I said "CIA animation". Why the hell the CIA? Why was a Stinger missile parts briefing document (regarding what to look for in the water) left in a hotel room by an FBI agent? Stingers eject a battery module after firing. Why have no other 747's just exploded like this, despite flying out of hot places like Dubai and Saudi for decades? What was the mystery boat seen leaving at high speed from the scene? Never identified. Were the 200 people who saw a missile all totally wrong? Were you alive then? I was. Many people recall seeing a video playing on CNN and in Asia for the first few hours after the incident that showed the smoke trail. It's "gone" now. Do you believe everything the government touches and always has "missing data" is legit? Two seconds gone? How nice. Where's the full cockpit skin of the plane? I see a LOT of aluminum missing on the rebuild. This is exactly where the missile hit the 777 over Ukraine. In the captain's window. There is so much more. Totality.

I remember that video!!

The NTSB was annoyed by the FBI during the investigation.

I was 5 years old, we were leaving cupsogue and saw what I thought was a firework over the ocean. I didn’t know it was a plane crash and loved fireworks but this creeped me out, for years I would have dreams of strange fireworks and phenomenon so happening over the ocean putting me into a phobia of the ocean for years to come. I was so young I never understood that it was a plane crash but i knew something was horribly wrong. One night we were talking about flight 800 in my teens and for the first time realized that was flight 800 I saw.

Two days earlier, I was in Nashville enjoying the music of French guitarist Marcel Dadi. Sadly, he was on that flight headed home when FLT 800 fell into the sea.

I hear you. That is all I can say at this point.

The story of Joe Lychner is so heartbreaking. But what incredible resiliency he has in life to move forward from his unimaginable loss and have another family to this day. God was good to him in the end 🙏

It should be noted that most air crash investigations end with a "probable" cause. This is an acknowledgement of the fact that if new information comes to light then the original determined cause of a crash might be wrong. It's not indicative of a conspiracy, it's just how investigators work. They acknowledge that it's nearly impossible to be 100% certain. As for the 2 second break in the recording, it was an old decrepit aircraft, and it had wiring faults. As the NTSB thinks a wiring fault was responsible for igniting the centre wing tank it's perfectly reasonable to assume that wiring faults also interrupted the recording for a moment. Other things on the recording indicate one of the gauges in the cockpit was behaving weirdly, which could also have been due to a wiring fault.

Best Evidence TWA Flight 800 video has a lot of the witnesses

When I was in the Coast Guard we were tasked with cleaning up the crash. We were told at the time that it was a Navy accident that they were firing projectiles during a training exercise and one of those projectiles (chaff) struck the plane. Surprising to see how this video is talking about it.

That was a theory without evidence to support it. They refused to believe the missile strike, despite significant eyewitness testimony from multiple locations and angles of view. Crash site investigators definitely found evidence of explosives on some parts of the wreckage, but the FBI intentionally ignored and then "misplaced" pieces sent for examination by NTSB officials. Kalstrom is a liar, Period. Do you think its possible for a plane without a nose to ascend 2000 feet before beginning to fall?

so it is the accident of 1996, and 2014 is when this documentary was made? I find it somewhat unclear (skipping your vision on the first 30 seconds) maybe placing the date 1996 in the title or info tabs underneath would help.

So..round hole = exploding fuel tank, but not missile? Hmm. In flight, the fuselage is cantilevered forward of the wing..putting the top in tension, the bottom in compression. Whatever blew up, it appears to have weakened the structure that was in compression..buckling, probably starting tears in the skin. The tears probably proceeded along the edge of a nearby former (one name for a part the skin is riveted to, giving it the round shape.) Quibbling about the source of ignition, spark or missile, doesn't change that. A missile may have even only exploded nearby, a resulting fragment or two could have penetrated and ignited the fuel tank. Or, a spark. But that doesn't explain what some very credible witnesses saw.

It's likely that the blip on the flight data recorder in advance of the explosion was the first sign of an electrical short circuit which resulted in high voltage current being sent into wires which went into the fuel tank. Some time later, these wires would have heated up enough to melt their insulation, and at that point you get a spark as the current grounds. A missile hitting a plane (as in the downing on MH17 in Ukraine) leaves inward-pointing holes in the fuselage (and in the bodies of the passengers) and would have been very obvious to investigators, coroners and undertakers.
