many people saw it as it flew over the somerset county towns. there was a man who saw it going to the ground. he was working in a scrap yard. nobody saw a plane trail and no one saw anybody file anything. nobody saw a missile or explosion. the fbi was aware of this potential possibility in the early moments. they pass the police to take their helicopter to fly along the flight path. if somebody would have shot it something would have fallen out of the plane. they took hundreds of fbi agents think on the ground. nothing. the coroner wally miller said you know this is hunters haven not here. the hunting season started in a couple of weeks. for a city boy like me this was for men. you would not have been able to hide anything so nothing has come back. the other thing is there was the norad tapes are available. there's a story in "vanity fair" magazine and they are assessable on line. everybody was so confused that morning. this had never happened before. it's easy to look at history in 2020 clarity with hindsight. there was no protocol for shooting
