I'm just relaying some of the things I've heard over the years that make me doubt the overheated fuel story. You are the kind of voice that seeks to silence those who raise legitimate questions. How about you shut up for a while and stop opposing rational inquiry. Maybe we will all learn something.

Couple things though before I go. Comparing the exploding KC-135s to TWA 800 is like comparing airline safety to military safety. (Hmmm, that's a good point).

How do you know what's beyond my level of education? What an arrogant and ignorant thing to say.

Conspiracy theory's aside. These things wouldn't get traction if reasonable questions received reasonable answers. Hopefully if this incident is investigated again shills like Kallstrom will not be able to shout people down.
Because you're accusing the Navy and it's people, an organization which I have devoted decades to, of committing mass murder and/or engaging in a vast criminal conspiracy the scope of which would exceed anything I can think of in this nation's history.

Because your sitting back somewhere like a troll in a cave gleefully spinning wild yarns which erode the public trust and confidence which many of us in public service work very hard to earn.

Your fallacy of an explanation of how fuel atomization applies in this case indicates that you have no relevant technical education, or you forgot it long ago. I am most certainly not ignorant of basic engineering principles, maybe I arrogant when people try to play fast and lose with those to bolster a BS conspiracy theory.

Grow the hell up 737 CA. Seriously consider if you're behaving like a responsible adult member of society and the aviation community. Frankly I haven't been this PO-ed by anything I've seen on APC in a long time. I said before I expect this kind of thing from certain sectors, but not from the likes of you.
