In Search of Nelson DeMille's TWA 800 Video
[American Thinker] Nelson DeMille’s bestselling novel. Nightfall, opens on July 17, 1996, with a steamy encounter on a Long Island beach. The man and women involved decide to videotape their coupling. In the process, they inadvertently capture the destruction of TWA Flight 800. The novel centers around that video.

Through his many contacts with the NYPD/Joint Terrorism Task Force DeMille learned there was a real video out there. To the best of my knowledge, the FBI confiscated the original from the MSNBC studios in the early morning hours of July 18, 1996.

#2 The two prevailing theories of the 1982 KC-135 crash in Illinois were electrical in nature; 'over heated fuel pump' and 'spark from communications gear onto leaked fuel fumes in fuselage.'

I have always wondered if the suspected electrical cause of the KC-135 in 1982 crash formed the basis of the 1996 TWA-800 crash (fuel tank) finding, or if their similarities were simply a coincidence.
