The Southampton Press [1] reports that on May 13th, Long Island resident Dede Muma accidently received a fax from Teledyne Ryan Aeronautical [2] that was intended for the FBI’s office in Calverton, Long Island. The fax indicates that parts of a U.S.
Navy missile target drone, a BQM-34 Firebee I [3],
may have been found in the wreckage of TWA 800.
The reason that Muma accidently received the fax, which she passed on to the Southampton Press, was probably because her fax number is 369-4310, while the FBI’s number is 369-4301. About the fax, the Southampton Press states:
Official documents faxed mistakenly to
a Riverhead resident...show that the
Federal Bureau of Investigation...was
investigating whether pieces of debris
found among the wreckage of TWA Fight
800 were the remnants of an aerial
target drone used by the U.S. Navy...
The fax shows a diagram of what appears
to be a missile, along with a breakdown
of its tail section and a parts list...
The object shown in the fax was identified
this week by Jane’s Information Services
in Alexandria, Virginia as a Teledyne
Ryan BQM-34 Firebee I, an air or surface-
launched recoverable aerial target.
The targets are used all over the world,
including within the military “warning
areas” that come as close as about 10
nautical miles off Moriches Inlet in the
Atlantic Ocean. The Navy practices shoot-
ing down drones within the warning areas.
Ms. Muma said she called the FBI when
she received the [Firebee] fax... Ms.
Muma was told to “send it along to them,
[the FBI] and destroy the original.” She
said she asked what would happen if she
didn’t do so, and was told “we’ll have
to investigate you.”
The source of the fax, Teledyne Ryan Aeronautical of San Diego, CA, manufactures Firebee drones for the Navy. The “Firebee fax” Muma received was sent from Erich Hittinger of Teledyne to FBI agent Ken Maxwell, who was to pass it on to a Teledyne Ryan representative at the FBI’s Long Island office, Walt Hamilton.
Hittinger of Teledyne Ryan told the Southampton
Press that the FBI contacted them to ask if orange
pieces of debris found at the TWA 800 crash site
were from one of their Firebee drones, which are
also orange [3]. Hamilton was then flown from San
Diego to the FBI’s Long Island facility to examine
the suspected Firebee debris. According to Hittinger,
Hamilton concluded that the orange metal “wasn’t
from our Firebee,” which suggests that it was
from someone’s Firebee, but not ours.
Question: If your business depended upon government
contracts, would you be inclined to prove that the
government, your employer, killed people? It could
prove to be a fatal business decision.
WITH NAVY DRONE DEBRIS IN HAND
In early May 1997, while the FBI had pieces of
debris that they suspected came from a U.S. Navy
missile-drone, what was the FBI telling us? FBI
Director Louis Freeh was telling us it looks like
the crash “was a catastrophic mechanical failure.”
[4] FBI agent James Kallstrom was saying: “We see
no evidence of a piece of shrapnel from a missile
or a warhead going through the plane.” [5]
On May 12th Newsday [6] reported that with no
evidence of a missile or foul play, the FBI was
planning to end its investigation by early August.
Clearly, as we have already seen with the cover-
up of the explosives residue [7], there is no
correlation between the FBI’s public-relations
front and the true story behind the scenes.
Rather than telling the truth that they suspected
a Navy missile-drone was involved, the FBI was
pushing “mechanical failure” while simultaneously
intimidating Dede Muma with threats of an invest-
igation against her for refusing to destroy her
errantly acquired evidence of U.S. Navy culp-
ability in the downing of TWA Flight 800.
HEAVY MILITARY AIRTRAFFIC
The skies off the Long Island shore on July 17,
1996 were filled with aircraft. Not only were
several Air National Guard aircraft in the air,
and not only was a high-speed vehicle heading
toward TWA 800 as reported by eyewitnesses,
radar, and a satellite, but a U.S. Navy P-3
Orion was flying almost directly above TWA
800 when the accident occurred.
Furthermore, several mysterious small aircraft
fitting the profile of target drones were also
seen in the area. Not only did Linda Kabot photo-
graph what seems to be a drone missile [8], but
the Long Island newspaper The Independent [9]
reported that witnesses saw a “smaller plane”
flying near TWA 800 at crash time. Indeed, a
Firebee drone looks like a “smaller plane.”[3]
Yet more, the Boston Globe [10] reported that in
addition to seeing “a brilliant flare-like glow
that streaked toward the plane,” witnesses also
saw “a low-flying aircraft without lights cruising
off shore.” Could that aircraft without lights
have been one of the aerial target drones, perhaps
Firebees, launched from Wallops Island on July
17th? [11] Drones can fly for hundreds of miles.
That there was such heavy military air-traffic
on July 17 should not be a big surprise because
there was a massive offshore military war-game
called “Global Yankee ‘96” [12] underway at the
time. Virtually all the military assets in the
air around TWA 800 that evening, including the
Air National Guard aircraft, where scheduled
to be involved in “Global Yankee ’96.” [13]
With such heavy military air-traffic and wargames
in the area around TWA 800, which was on the “Betty
track” (a safe route around active naval exercise
zones), is it a surprise that over 150 witnesses
saw TWA 800 being hit by a missile-like projectile?
Is it a surprise that parts of a Navy missile-drone
may have been found among the debris of TWA 800?
I would dare to say that it is not a surprise.
