It wouldn't be the first time someone screwed up this badly.

They invited the NTSB and Boeing to send representatives.

...AFTER they buried all the evidence, placed the back boxes in an nuclear centrifuge for 12 hours, tossed the hard drives in a steel blast furnace for a few hours and then ran over the remaining slag a few times with a bulldozer.

C'mon over!

a reply to: Flyingclaydisk

ohhh you didnt hear the black boxes were damaged and they are having a hard tie getting data..........

and as for why that video isn't blasted all over the place(the missile video) i have no idea because it is 100% the indent in question.


i saw another video that shows 2 TOR missiles being shot at that same time that was filmed by some random person that is no longer around

USS Vincennes.

a reply to: JIMC5499

There have been quite a few going back to the 80s.

a reply to: Zaphod58

we shot down an Iranian jet back in the day, if thats what you war talking about.


there was also that incident over long island where a us warship shot down a passenger jet



on a side not i have a bunch of photos taken during the DNA and ID of the Iranian general but i think they violate T&C's

a reply to: penroc3

The Vincennes, yes.

Also, Siberian Airlines 1812, Malaysian Airlines Flight 17 and an Ilyushin Il-20M 90924.

And KAL 007 was shot down by the Soviet Union in 1983.

ahhh yes i didnt see Jim's post.

A lot of theories and witnesses said the same about the TWA 747 accident as well

a reply to: Woody510

This plane that was shot down - it was Ukrainian, correct? Let's hope that there were no Ukrainians aboard who could have been potential witnesses in any trial that could spring up over wrongdoing that might have occured in Ukraine.

It should be pretty easy to find out. Of the 11 Ukrainians on board, nine were crew.

Updates from multiple sources:

Russia, France, Ukraine, and Canada have all offered to decode the data recorders. The recorders are being evaluated today to determine if they need special equipment to download them.

Ukraine says that the last communication with the pilot was calm and routine, with no indication of any problems.

Iran says the cause of the crash will be released tomorrow. They deny a missile was involved, and say they're reviewing data to determine the cause of the fire. The full report could take two years.

what about that video i posted that clearly shows something intercept the aircraft

a reply to: penroc3

It's been on multiple aviation sites. Ukraine is examining terrorism in the form of a bomb, or a missile. They are waiting to get seats from the aircraft for testing to look for explosive residue.

So dodgy wasn't it the whole damn thing.

a reply to: Woody510

We lost several tankers and crews, including the only KC-10 lost, to fuel tank explosions. They happen. Thankfully they're exceedingly rare.

a reply to: Zaphod58

I don't doubt they happen just that investigation just always seemed a bit odd and off for some reason with me.

a reply to: Woody510

I heard so many theories by people that didn't know what they were talking about that it wasn't funny.
