[1]:100 The Sequencing Group concluded that the first event in the breakup sequence was a fracture in the wing center section of the aircraft, caused by an "overpressure event" in the center wing fuel tank (CWT). [41]:1 The FBI, from the start assuming that a criminal act had occurred,[41]:3 saw the NTSB as indecisive. "[1]:294[53], Though the FQIS itself was designed to prevent danger by minimizing voltages and currents, the innermost tube of Flight 800's FQIS compensator showed damage similar to that of the compensator tube identified as the ignition source for the surge tank fire that destroyed a 747 near Madrid in 1976. Expressing frustration at the NTSB's unwillingness to speculate on a cause, one FBI agent described the NTSB as "No opinions. [5] Sixteen months later, the JTTF announced that no evidence of a criminal act had been found and closed its active investigation. On July 7, 2021, 25 years following the crash, the NTSB will decommission the wreckage, which will be destroyed by the end of 2022. "The explosion that occurred on TWA 800 was in the center wing fuel tank and was not from anything external," he says. Taxi and takeoff proceeded uneventfully. TWA Flight 800 On July 17, 1996, TWA Flight 800 crashed into the Atlantic Ocean off of Long Island, New York. Among the most valuable aids, said Wetli, is a picture of the victim smiling; the teeth in the picture could be matched against those of bodies. [1]:273 Testing by the NTSB and the British Defence Evaluation and Research Agency demonstrated that when metal of the same type and thickness of the CWT was penetrated by a small charge, petalling of the surface occurred where the charge was placed, with pitting on the adjacent surfaces, and visible hot-gas washing damage in the surrounding area. It is fair to say that we will never see another accident of this kind involving this aircraft type. [1]:94, Radar data showing vehicle and/or object tracks within 10 nautical miles (19km; 12mi) of TWA flight 800 just before the accident[1]:fig. Almost immediately there was speculation that the plane had been the target of a terrorist attack, with many claiming theyd spotted what appeared to be a missile heading toward the plane just before it exploded. [1]:256257, Close examination of the wreckage revealed no evidence of structural faults such as fatigue, corrosion, or mechanical damage that could have caused the in-flight breakup. According to Purvis, the safety board addressed the missile idea in its report. [26][27][28] Since the NTSB does not investigate criminal activity, the United States Attorney General is empowered to declare an investigation to be linked to a criminal act, and require the NTSB to relinquish control of the investigation to the FBI. Once victims are identified, investigators will plot them and their detailed injuries atop a seating chart of Flight 800 provided by TWA to determine if the pattern of injuries explains the nature of the explosion that caused the crash. [1]:123 Because the research data regarding quenching were limited, a complete understanding of quenching behavior was not possible, and the issue of quenching remained unresolved. July 22, 1996 12 AM PT. According to Oakley, the 25 years following the tragic Flight 800 crash have included the safest years in U.S. commercial aviation history. [1]:258 Of the 5% of the fuselage that was not recovered, none of the missing areas was large enough to have covered all the damage that would have been caused by the detonation of a bomb or missile. [1]:230 Despite the two and a half years that had elapsed since the accident, the witness group did interview the captain of Eastwind Airlines Flight 507, who was the first to report the explosion of TWA 800, because of his vantage point and experience as an airline pilot. Following the NTSB's ruling, the plane was used in training plane crash investigators and families of the victims were allowed to visit it, although it was never opened to the public. [1]:45[note 1][12][13][note 2], The ground-maintenance crew locked out the thrust reverser for engine #3 (treated as a minimum equipment list item) because of technical problems with the thrust reverser sensors during the landing of TWA 881 at JFK, prior to Flight 800's departure. [1]:293294 This was not considered proof of a source of ignition. [1]:8789 None of these contacts intersected TWA 800's position at any time. and "How long did the missile fly?" To continue the pressure fueling, a TWA mechanic overrode the automatic VSO by pulling the volumetric fuse and an overflow circuit breaker. [57] In a press release, the NTSB stated: "After a thorough review of all the information provided by the petitioners, the NTSB denied the petition in its entirety because the evidence and analysis presented did not show the original findings were incorrect. To me, it is impossible for secrets like this to be kept secret very long.. Customers have virtually disappeared from Larry's Crab House, a festive restaurant with a deck and volleyball court adjacent to a marina on Moriches Bay. [1]:63 This facility became the command center and headquarters for the investigation. He said most have massive injuries, adding that it would be "irresponsible and inhumane" to allow families to see the victims, or even to see photographs of their bodies. [32]:3 Ultimately, remains of all 230 victims were recovered and identified, the last over 10 months after the crash. [1]:367 The cockpit voice recorder and flight data recorder were recovered by U.S. Navy divers one week after the accident; they were immediately shipped to the NTSB laboratory in Washington, DC, for readout. [1]:272 Computer simulations using missile performance data simulated a missile detonating in a location such that a fragment from the warhead could penetrate the CWT. [1]:6574 The green zone with the aft portion of the aircraft was located the furthest along the flight path. THE DEAD DO SOMETIMES TELL tales, if you know how to look for them. The FBI interviewed at least 755 witnesses. Air travel safety, in general, has steadily improved since the beginning of the widespread use of jet aircraft in 1958, he says. Purvis says while four years is a long time for an investigation, its not outside the accepted bounds. [1]:273274 Since none of the recovered CWT wreckage exhibited these damage characteristics, and none of the areas of missing wreckage was large enough to encompass all the expected damage, the investigation concluded that this scenario was "very unlikely". [1]:270 The NTSB further concluded, "the witnesses' observations of one or more fireballs were of the airplane's burning wreckage falling toward the ocean". [1]:262 These witness accounts were a major reason for the initiation and duration of the FBI's criminal investigation. SMITHTOWN, N.Y. Passengers in the first-class section of TWA Flight 800 suffered the most extensive injuries of the victims recovered so far, investigators said Monday, strengthening . Twice a week we compile our most fascinating features and deliver them straight to you. But even though we're physicians, we're still human. [6], The four-year NTSB investigation concluded with the approval of the Aircraft Accident Report on August 23, 2000, ending the most extensive, complex and costly air disaster investigation in U.S. history at that time. HAUPPAUGE, New York (CNN) -- The Suffolk County medical examiner has released the first autopsy report on the victims from TWA Flight 800. Seventeen of the 18 crew members[20] and 152 of the passengers were Americans; the remaining crew member was Italian, while the remaining passengers were of various other nationalities. When the rare fatal air accident occurs it usually involves a causality chain, including a number of seemingly unconnected small anomalies that, together, create a sort of perfect storm which causes a crash, he says. TimesMachine is an exclusive benefit for home delivery and digital subscribers. The new statutory language and the MOU have improved coordination between the NTSB and FBI since the TWA flight 800 accident. [71] The NTSB did not wish to renew the lease on the hangar it was using to store the reassembled accident debris, and decided it should be disposed of. The . Medical Examiner Wetli said only half of the 100 bodies retrieved from the ocean so far had been processed, meaning photographed, fingerprinted, weighed, X-rayed, and autopsied. Flight 800 Autopsy Reports Are Given to Victims' Families, https://www.nytimes.com/1997/01/04/nyregion/flight-800-autopsy-reports-are-given-to-victims-families.html. A plastic bomb would not leave such traces, he emphasized. [42], Although considerable discrepancies existed between different accounts, most witnesses to the accident had seen a "streak of light" that was described by 38 of 258 witnesses as ascending,[1]:232 moving to a point where a large fireball appeared, with several witnesses reporting that the fireball split in two as it descended toward the water. "It's never very pleasant when you're in this field and you have to autopsy someone you know," said Suffolk County Medical Examiner Charles Wetli. [1]:118 According to the seat manufacturer, the locations and appearance of this substance were consistent with adhesive used in the construction of the seats, and additional laboratory testing by NASA identified the substance as being consistent with adhesives. The NTSB's conclusions about the cause of the TWA 800 disaster took four years and one month to be published. [1]:298, Computer modeling[1]:122123 and scale-model testing[1]:123 were used to predict and demonstrate how an explosion would progress in a 747 CWT. The FQIS on Flight 800 is known to have been malfunctioning; the captain remarked on "crazy" readings from the system about 2 minutes and 30 seconds before the aircraft exploded. No nothing. Anyone can read what you share. Maintenance records indicate that the aircraft had numerous VSO-related maintenance writeups in the weeks before the accident.

At the time of the crash, 49 CFR 831.5 specified that the NTSB's aviation accident investigations have priority over all other federal investigations. These plugs were blown out following the explosion of Flight 800. Among the dead were 18 crew members and 212 passengers, including 16 students and five chaperones from Pennsylvania's Montoursville Area High School French Club. [1]:3, Thirty-eight seconds later, the captain of an Eastwind Airlines Boeing 737 reported to Boston ARTCC that he "just saw an explosion out here", adding, "we just saw an explosion up ahead of us here about 16,000 feet [4,900m] or something like that, it just went down into the water. The flight crew started the engines at 8:04 pm. [60][61] The reconstructed aircraft was used to train accident investigators until it was decommissioned in 2021. The coroner who oversaw the autopsies on most of the victims of T.W.A. The captain commented on the "crazy" readings of the number 4 engine fuel flow gauge about 21/2 minutes before the CVR recording ended. [59], The wreckage was moved to an NTSB facility in Ashburn, Virginia, that was custom-built for the purpose. The explosion that occurred on TWA 800 was in the center wing fuel tank and was not from anything external, he says. [1]:363365 An HH-60 Pave Hawk helicopter of the New York Air National Guard saw the explosion from about 8 miles away; it arrived at the scene of the explosion while debris was still in the process of falling into the water, forcing the crew to pull away. Hundreds of witnesses saw the plane explode from . [1]:9697 These simulations indicated that after the loss of the forward fuselage the remainder of the aircraft continued in crippled flight, then pitched up while rolling to the left (north),[1]:263 climbing to a maximum altitude between 15,537 and 16,678 feet (4,736 and 5,083m)[1]:97 from its last recorded altitude, 13,760 feet (4,190m). "[1]:257, A review of recorded data from long-range and airport surveillance radars revealed multiple contacts of airplanes or objects in TWA800's vicinity at the time of the accident. [1]:85, Because no evidence was found that an explosive device detonated in this (or any other) area of the airplane, this overpressure event could only have been caused by a fuel-air explosion in the CWT. TWA800 was behind the target, and with the likely forward-looking perspective of the target's occupant(s), the occupants would not have been in a position to observe the aircraft's breakup or subsequent explosions or fireball(s). Pathologists are meeting daily with family members, conducting interviews about minute details of the victims' bodies to help determine who is who. Vacationer Joanne Bechhoff canceled a birthday party she had booked for tonight on the sandy volleyball court at the water's edge because she said she simply could not bear to be in a place so closely linked to such a huge tragedy. [44]:10 With access to these documents no longer controlled by the FBI, the NTSB formed a second witness group to review the documents. [32]:2, With lines of authority unclear, differences in agendas and culture between the FBI and NTSB resulted in discord. [49]:29 An overpressure event was defined as a rapid increase in pressure resulting in failure of the structure of the CWT. Bodies and debris have been carried far from the crash site by tides -- requiring searchers to cover more than 400 square miles of ocean -- and large sections of the 747 jetliner have sunk more than 100 feet, likely with many of the missing bodies inside. [65], During the investigation, the NTSB and the FBI clashed with each other. Flight 800 is a seminal moment in aviation safety history, the safety boards managing director said in a 2021 statement. After the 1996 crash of TWA flight 800 off Long Island,. [43]:165[45]:184, Within days of the crash, the NTSB announced its intent to form its own witness group and to interview witnesses to the crash. 1. Medical investigators were holding up remarkably well as they went about their gruesome work -- opening body bags, removing corpses, examining them in painstaking detail -- when a forensic dentist looked up from one of the bodies and told his colleagues: "I know this person.". [30], Search and recovery operations were conducted by federal, state, and local agencies, as well as government contractors. 22b, p. 67, The pathways the wreckage took as it fell to the ocean[1]:fig.

In addition to the probable cause, the NTSB found the following contributing factors to the accident:[1]:308, During the course of its investigation, and in its final report, the NTSB issued 15 safety recommendations, mostly covering fuel tank and wiring-related issues. "[55] Speculation was fueled in part by early descriptions, visuals, and eyewitness accounts of the disaster that indicated a sudden explosion and trails of fire moving in an upward direction. After a forensic dentist emerged visibly shaken from the medical examiner's office, saying it was difficult to settle himself Thursday night even after he was home and comfortably in his own bed, Wetli said that most members of his staff are tolerating the trauma well, thanks to years of training and experience. But one customer said the motives are far more complicated. However, after just 12 minutes, chaos ensued in the sky as an explosion occurred. The FBI conducted an investigation into the crash to determine if terrorist action was involved in the tragedy; no such action was found in our investigation. "[1]:2 A loud noise recorded on the last few tenths of a second of the CVR was similar to the last noises recorded from other airplanes that had experienced in-flight breakups. [7][8] The report's conclusion was that the probable cause of the accident was explosion of flammable fuel vapors in the center fuel tank. [19], On board TWA 800 were 230 people, including 18 crew and 20 off-duty employees,[20] most of whom were crew meant to cover the Paris-Rome leg of the flight. They even have been attending to each other, conducting trauma "debriefings" at the end of every long day to relieve stress. Plus, investigators applied extra diligence to accommodate a huge amount of pressure applied from many quarters to make absolutely sure this was not the result of a terrorist operation, or an errant missile fired by our, or some other nations, military.. "You don't want anybody to onion.". Captain Kevorkian had over 18,800 flight hours, including 5,490 hours on the Boeing 747. The FBI's earliest investigations and interviews, later used by the NTSB, were performed under the assumption of a missile attack, a fact noted in the NTSB's final report. The aircraft had completed 16,869 flights with 93,303 hours of operation and was powered by four Pratt & Whitney JT9D-7AH turbofan engines. [62], On July 18, 2008, the U.S secretary of transportation visited the facility and announced a final rule designed to prevent accidents caused by fuel-tank explosions. [34]:1[35]:34 This hotel became known as the "Heartbreak Hotel" for its role in handling families of victims of several airliner crashes. Accordingly, the NTSB decommissioned the wreckage in July 2021. So the appearance of a missile was basically an optical illusion.. Flight engineer trainee Krick was seated in the flight engineer's seat (being monitored by Flight Engineer/Check Airman Campbell); he was the least experienced of the crew, having logged 2,520 flight hours, but with only 30 of them on the Boeing 747. TWA's senior management had spent Wednesday celebrating in London. "As physicians, part of our training is being able to separate -- to empathize without sympathizing," said Wetli, who was deputy medical examiner in Dade County, Fla., during Hurricane Andrew. [1]:270, To determine what ignited the flammable fuel-air vapor in the CWT and caused the explosion, the NTSB evaluated numerous potential ignition sources. To honor this agreement made with the families of the victims of TWA Flight 800, the NTSB will work closely with a federal government contractor to dismantle the reconstruction and destroy the wreckage. The report on passenger Susan Hill, a homicide. [1]:xvi Problems with the aircraft's wiring were found, including evidence of arcing in the fuel quantity indication system (FQIS) wiring that enters the tank. [1]:9596 Hundreds of simulations were run using various combinations of possible times the nose of TWA 800 separated (the exact time was unknown), different models of the behavior of the crippled aircraft (the aerodynamic properties of the aircraft without its nose could only be estimated), and longitudinal radar data (the recorded radar tracks of the east/west position of TWA 800 from various sites differed). [51]:5 In all cases, the witnesses could not be describing a missile approaching an intact aircraft, as the plane had already exploded before their observations began. Death On Flight 800. MOST of the 230 people aboard TWA Flight 800 were killed quickly in mid air by "phenomenal whiplash" when the plane exploded, Tue Aug 20 1996 - 01:00 MOST of the 230 people aboard TWA. Six months into the investigation, the NTSB's chairman, Jim Hall, was quoted as saying, "All three theoriesa bomb, a missile, or mechanical failureremain. "[41]:4 Meanwhile, the NTSB was required to refute or play down speculation about conclusions and evidence, frequently supplied to reporters by law enforcement officials and politicians.
