IAN: Make that all three. The FBI just hit Richard Russell (retired
crash investigator and American Airlines pilot) taking the radar tape
with them. They came in with a federal subpoena for the radar tape.
Apparently FBI chief "investigator" Kallstrom may hold a press
conference today to denounce the tapes as bogus.

This is done to head off upcoming and already published news about
the radar tapes. Here are two of the publications already out:

Report says missile may have shot down jetliner

RIVERSIDE, Calif. (AP) -- Newly disclosed evidence "points to a
missile''as the cause of the explosion that killed all 230 people
aboard TWA Flight 800 off New York's Long Island, The Press-Enterprise
reported today.

The evidence includes reddish residue found on several seat backs
that laboratory analysis showed to be "consistent with solid missile
fuel'' ingredients, the newspaper said.

It said information from FBI and National Transportation Safety
Board documents and investigative sources indicates the plane may
have been a victim of a terrorist missile or "friendly fire'' --
a Navy weapon gone astray.
