Missile conspiracy theories circulate after many initially unexplained crashes (and even some that were thoroughly explained). Almost never prove true.
Seems very improbable here as well. The US president was Jimmy Carter (and the United States was engrossed in the Iran hostage crisis). Targeting Qaddafi's plane is not something Carter would have considered doing. Reagan might, but he didn't take office until 1981.
