Your comment,
"Loads of idiots said the 747 was too big in 1969 - no change there then."
If you will read the TWA 800 report and enlarge the FDR Chart you will then see the data which was removed by the NTSB and understand what happened to TWA. (Including the parts of the aircraft that fell out of the structure, prior to the explosion."
