Everything is a conspiracy… part of the modern victim mindset. It pretty pathetic.

+1 I have a clearance, but does that really have a bearing on the matter? No, because a clearance by itself means nothing without access to information concerning the actual incident. So, for this and many other reasons, this poll is worthless.

Not enough room available in the poll to write "relevant clearance" - note that in Q#4 "professional" had to be abbreviated to fit. It should be obvious, (re: "restrictions" following clearance/professional), but will add a note since it confused you.
|
You also don't have any room for people who do have a professional interest, ie crash investigators who weren't involved, and don't have access to the information.
BTW, I wasn't confused, just showing that this poll like your conspiracy theory is half-baked.

The limit on poll choices is 5 questions, one does the best with what one has.
I have no "conspiracy theory" save for the parties involved being less than 100% open with all their findings. Where that leads is unknown. It does (or should) give one pause to ask who benefits from anything less than full disclosure. Maybe it's national security. Maybe it's something else altogether. Maybe it's just bureaucracies being themselves. It has left enough gaps to keep a discussion going nearly 10 years past the event.
One of the good things about this board is there is a pretty diverse background of folks who can sort through some of the noise, and ideally yield a satisfying answer. Theories should sink or swim based on factual evaluation & merits, and in their absence, the demeanor of the parties involved. There is a large body of evidence out there, some of it conflicting, some incomplete, and an objective look at the lot might offer insight. I don't consider your analysis "half-baked" or "bunk", you have relevant experience in the field, as do others. We can debate it on merits without tossing brickbats. Let's carry on then, shall we?
