Since the first Boeing 747 was delivered in 1969, the big jumbo jet has logged more than a billion miles. Since that historic date, Boeing has delivered 1254 of the venerable jumbo jets.
The jumbo jet was a big gamble for Boeing, and it has paid off; the 175 ton behemoth has a safety record second to none for an American made passenger jet. It is the cheapest way to travel – only a few cents per seat mile.
The TWA 747-100 that happened to be a target of a missile shootdown off of the Long Island, New York coast in July of 1996 had logged 93,303 flight hours. This is equivalent to 3,887 days of continuous in-air flight; or, 10.65 years of continuous flight.
If one were to estimate the combined total flight time of all currently operating 747 jumbo jets, that time, conservatively estimated, is in the neighborhood of 5000 years. This number is based on an conservative average of 4 years per 747, multiplied by 1250 units delivered by the company.
The National Transportation Safety Board has declared that the center fuel tank of the Boeing 747 blew up suddenly and without warning – this is their final conclusion despite numerous eyewitnesses that saw a missile attack on the TWA jet.
The center fuel tank on this model has never exploded. Now we are to believe Jim Hall of the NTSB that after 10 years of service for downed TWA jet, and approximately 5000 YEARS of 747 fleet time, that the plane just blew itself up after missiles happened to be seen in the area. Yeah, right, Jim Hall. Who do you jackasses at the NTSB think you are fooling?
Simple statistical analysis of the available data, and the eyewitness accounts paint a clear enough picture - that Jim Hall, James Kallstrom and the NAVY are engaged in an elaborate coverup that reaches all the way to Bill Clinton’s desk.
Just give us the truth and stop this Amos & Andy coverup.
