Press Release
regarding the Hearing - pdf, Text
version.
Testimony was heard from Chairman
James Hall of the NTSB, the Rand Corporation and Cmdr. Donaldson.
Cmdr. Donaldson's testimony focused on the inability of the NTSB to
solve the $40 million mystery while putting forward an insupportable theory
that the Center Fuel Tank blew up spontaneously. There is Zero evidence
that a spark in the center fuel tank caused the disaster, yet the NTSB
and FBI have kept eyewitness testimony secret for nearly 3 years. Cmdr.
Donaldson has access to 118 eyewitnesses on 18 boats and 30 locations ashore
that surrounded the launch site of a missile. He also produced physical
evidence that proves the NTSB and FBI have been lying to the American public
about their investigation. While the NTSB was telling the public the trawling
operation was designed to recover every last piece of the aircraft and
all human remains, the documents he submitted to the Aviation Subcommittee
prove the operation was specifically designed to find and hide missile
parts. The Dredging was centered around the last radar return at a distance
that was the suspected range of a Stinger missile. Most of the area dredged
did not have aircraft parts and most of the area containing the aircraft
parts was not in the dredging area. Donaldson's testimony is available
