The open minds ask these questions in any order:

1. How and why does forward cargo door open in flight?

2. How does open door in flight cause nose to come off for AI 182, PA 103,

and TWA 800?

3. Why did nose of UAL 811 stay on?

4. AI 182 and PA 103 not a bomb?

5. TWA 800 not center tank as initial event?

6. Explosive decompression enough to tear nose off?

7. Is there a conspiracy to keep cargo door explanation quiet?

Let me answer those basic questions briefly:

1. I don't know about AI 182, PA 103, or TWA 800, but UAL 811 door open

cause was electrical short to door motor to unlatch position which overrode

safety locking sectors and failed switch and door unlatched and opened. PA

103 and UAL 811 had total forward cargo door openings while AI 182 and TWA

800 had rupture at aft midspan latch with bottom eight latches holding

tight. Door openings were probably a result of aging aircraft, out of rig

door, chafed aging faulty poly-x wiring, weakened Section 41 area, design

weakness of no locking sectors for midspan latches, AAR 92/02, page 12,

(Encl 26) and only one latch per eight feet of vertical door. AI 182, PA

103, and TWA 800 had similar circumstances.

2. Cargo door opens and huge ten by thirty foot hole appears in nose,

structural members of door and frame are missing, floor beams are

fractured, bent, and broken, aircraft direction is askew, flight control

surfaces affected, engines damaged, and 300 knots, more than the fastest

hurricane or force five tornado on earth, hits damaged area and tears nose

off within three to five seconds.

3. Nose of UAL 811 may have stayed on because pilot said he had just come

off autopilot and did not fight plane as it gyrated, or plane was younger

than others, or the time from door opening to tearing off was 1.5 seconds

and allowed the pressurization to be relieved somewhat and six less feet of

width of hole was torn off. Cargo door inadvertently opened on the ground

during UAL preflight in 1991 and no damage was done. Cargo door opened in

flight two inches on PA 125 in 1987 and stayed attached to fuselage and

only damage was cost of fuel dumped. Cargo door opened in flight for UAL

811 in 1989 and nine died when door tore off. Cargo door explanation for AI

182, PA 103, and TWA 800 has door opening inflight, tearing off, and then

nose tearing off leading to three similar accident wreckage patterns,

debris fields and total destruction. Door openings have different

consequences depending on altitude, speed and mode of flight.

4. Yes, not a bomb for AI 182 and PA 103 as initial event. Evidence refutes

bomb explanation and is in government accident reports which careful

analysis will reveal and documented on www.corazon.com. Those accident

investigators did not have the benefit of hindsight, the internet, or

several subsequent similar accidents to compare and draw different

conclusions.

5. Center tank exploded yes, but after door ruptured/opened, hole appeared

in nose, nose torn off in wind, fuselage falling with disintegrating fuel

tanks and ignited by fodded and on fire engine number 3 or 4 at 7500 feet

thereby explaining the Chairman's question, "Why so few bodies burned?" The

answer is they were not there to be burned. The nose came off with the

passengers inside cabin and descended to ocean alone. The center tank

exploded into nothingness not the passenger compartment.

6. Explosive decompression is enough to rupture pressurized hull at weak

spot, one latch for eight feet of door, in a weak area, Section 41, but not

enough to tear nose off. The ultimate destructive force is the 300 knots of

slipstream, more powerful than any wind on earth. If cargo door popped in

balloon, the large hole would appear but the nose would stay on. In a

tornado, nose comes off within three to five seconds.

7. There is no conspiracy, no plot, no coverup by anyone involved with the

cargo door explanation:

a. No conspiracy of Sikh terrorists named Singh to put a bomb on AI 182;

the door ruptured in flight.

b. No conspiracy of Libyan terrorists or whoever to put a bomb on PA 103;

the door ruptured in flight.

c. No conspiracy to detonate a bomb on UAL 811 as the passengers thought,

as the crew thought and told the tower who told the Coast Guard and crash

crews on the ground as they prepared for a wounded 747 coming in after a

bomb blast; the door ruptured in flight.

d. No conspiracy to put a bomb on TWA 800, no conspiracy of terrorists to

shoot a missile, no coverup by US Navy to hide accidental shootdown, no

coverup by Boeing, NTSB, FAA, TWA who know the cargo door is the problem

and are hiding that knowledge; the door ruptured in flight.

There is no conspiracy or cover up or plot but it is understandable for the

public and others to believe that explanation: Cargo door cause is subtle.

1. The explosive decompression of door rupture mimics a bomb with noise and

blast effects.

2. The events happen years apart in different jurisdictions with different

airlines.

3. Explosive decompression of door rupture leaves no direct evidence such

as soot, only noise on CVR tape.

4. The cargo door manufacturer and operator are large and highly respected

companies.

5. Explosive decompression causes secondary diversionary effects such as

fireball from center tank explosion and relatively mild blast in cargo

compartment of incendiary device.

6. A door opening and slipstream are considered trivial things by the

public who thinks of a car trunk opening at highway speed not understanding

high internal force of pressurization, large size of cargo door, and

destructive force of 320 miles per hour on weakened structure.

7. Cargo door explanation assumes responsibility for rupture by

manufacturer, operator, government, while bomb or missile can be blamed

elsewhere.
