Everyone should read "The Case of Witness 649"
on Donaldson's home page (twa800.com). This
witness watches the "smoke trail" rise up initially at a 90 degree angle (vertical - straight up). A shoulder fired stinger missile would not be fired at a 90 degree angle. Maybe 45 or 60 degrees but certainly not at a 90 degree angle. A missile fired from a Navy surface ship or submerged submarine CAN have an initial 90 degree angle of climb. It's time for Donaldson to investigate the U.S. Navy.
