Red face Those pesky fuel tank explosions

"We're taking this step because we have found a practical solution."

A solution to what? What 747 ever suffered a fuel tank explosion *before* or *after* TWA800?

<<The Safety Board said it could not identify the source of the spark>>

The source of the spark was a frickin' SAM.

Man oh man. What a long way to go for a cover-up. And guess who foots the bill? Boeing and the airlines.

Brilliant. Kick 'em while they're down.
