Re: (meteorobs) some meteors reported



In a message dated 98-01-14 13:38:38 EST, you write:

Lloyd>> Geo: Since you brought up Flt 800 there is about 1,400 holes in the
aircraft.
 But they will not let me look at the a/c. Reportedly 40-60 holes of the holes
 are about like the end of a pencil. There is reportedly a larger hole at
 Fuselage Station (FS) 1480.
 
 The plane was pressured to about 2.3 PSI. In the last two (2) seconds of
 recording the flight data recorder (FDR) readings were effected by an
external
 pressure which we assume to be the shock wave from the sonic boom.  
 
 In my opinion the combination of the holes and the shock wave was enough to
 cause an explosive decompression and subsequent explosions. These explosions
 coupled with the a/c falling 13,700 feet and hitting the water makes it very
 difficult to analyse the wreckage. 
 
 I cannot find any airline experts that believe the center fuel tank (CWT)
 explosion was the initial cause of the accident. It is believed that the CWT
 explosion would require an outside source of ignition.
 
 Only the FBI interviewed the eye-witnesses, evidently looking for evidence of
 a missile or a bomb (both have been discounted). The witnesses I talked to
 were not interviewed again even though they volunteered. The National
 Transportation Safety Board (NTSB) should interview these people again. They
 may be surprised what they may find.<<

Well Lloyd...Enjoy your snipe hunt. You can believe whatever you want...but I
think you are grasping at non-existent straws.
