Description

On July 17, 1996, commercial airliner TWA Flight 800 departed from JFK Airport heading for Paris when it burst into flames just minutes after takeoff, claiming the lives of all 230 people on board. Years of speculation have followed as the cause of the tragic crash has remained shrouded in mystery-despite an official investigation from the National Transportation Safety Board declaring the crash was probably caused by an accidental fuel tank explosion. This investigative documentary delves into the mystery and presents compelling new evidence by interviewing witnesses to the tragedy, as six whistleblowers come forward with startling revelations suggesting a cover-up at the highest level. In Person: Director Kristina Borjesson.
