Near misses and disasters, Rockets red glare

Are Toy rockets taking over the world?



You may recall, like a race car flying past you at 200 miles an hour, the brief media coverage of Flight 1544 flying from Houston to Cleveland on Memorial Day. Numerous witnesses on the plane described a cylinder shaped object with a long plume of thick smoke pouring out its back. Many said it flew rapidly past the front of the plane, nearly missing it.

The plane was flying at an altitude of 5,000 feet and 11 miles east of Bush Intercontinental Airport. I wrote about this on newswithviews.com on May 30th, dumbfounded by the response in the media and authorities on this. The Pilot radioed to the control tower that the object was “missile-like with a thick contrail” traveling at a high rate of speed. As you may recall with the speed of light media coverage a few months back that they settled almost immediately for the model rocket story. Doug Hagman, Director of Northeast Intelligence Network interviewed a few of the passengers who had contacted him in horror at the assumption by the media that they had this mystery solved. It was a toy rocket and nothing more, the media harped. The witnesses Doug interviewed were terrified to give their names and said that what they saw was no “toy” rocket at all. They were so terrified they planned to not even fly again. Isn’t it amazing the terror that a little toy rocket can cause in the mind of someone. Shall we call it “modelrocketaphobia”? Lets look at the toy rocket theory. According to the FAA no hobby clubs or racketeers of any kind requested clearance to launch a toy rocket in the area that weekend. The FAA wouldn’t have allowed permission anyway 11 miles from a major airport. Also, you can’t just fire a toy rocket off. You need to be fingerprinted and undergo background checks by the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives before you can even buy the high-powered engines that propel these rockets. So far we have a big no for the toy rocket theory unless of course someone was breaking the law. Are there any other cases of such a mysterious happening occurring with nasty “modelaphobia rockets”? Back in Nov 2005 Doug Hagman Director of Northeast Intelligence Network reported another close call with AA flight 612. Once again, the news covered this at warp speed and quickly concluded this was a toy rocket, though no one had filed for any permission to fly such a thing then. You may recall the plane taking off from LAX to the east coast. North East Intelligence Network didn’t accept the diversion and soft sell then so they investigated and talked with a Pilot who reviewed the images of the radar activity as it related to AA Flight 612, on November 26, 2005. He confirmed that this was an unusual event and “could be consistent with the pilot’s observations of a missile or rocket eclipsing and missing Flight 612” He went on to say, “Based on what I reviewed, the unidentified object was not a bottle rocket or flare, but was absolutely consistent with some type of missile possibly aimed at the aircraft.” I feel like I’m in the movie Ground Hog Day where everything repeats every day. The investigation and spin involving flight 1544 is following the same “modelrocketaphobia” insanity. All that I have talked with in researching the likely hood of toy rockets being the culprit at either occurrence say it is HIGHLY unlikely. No permits, no permission requested to fly toy rockets around either flight and date, witnesses seeing a large plume of smoke and with flight 1544 they were at 5000 feet up. Sean Osborn a known military analyst and contributor for Northeast Intelligence network told me on the phone just today that “these were no toy rockets” but most likely missiles. We do know that Islamic Radicals have been doing surveillance on airports in the U.S. since 9/11 and been trying to buy and use shoulder missiles. It shouldn’t escape our reality as we explore the endless possibilities in Toyland that these were most likely missile attacks from the enemy! But of course why should that be real news, it might hurt the airline industry’s bottom line and keep some folks off planes. While I’m on a role, remember the other mystery flight, Flight 587, the large Airbus A300-600 that crashed into a New York suburb in 2001. Though no mystery toy rocket was talked about, it certainly was amazing how quickly the US Army lifted the entire vertical stabilizer out of the area almost immediately. In my review on this wreck I found that the likelihood of an entire vertical stabilizer separating from the plane has almost never happened in modern aviation. This piece controls the plane so when it falls off (which never happens) the plane falls out of the sky. Many onlookers on the ground reported that the engine just came off and the plane was totally out of control. Eventually in this weird case, extensive checks were made of vertical stabilizers on all other A300 series Airbus airplanes and no problems were found at all. Does this not point to a covered up sabotage to the plane instead of the mentally ill report by authorities that it was just an unfortunate mechanical failure? Lets see…..there were no reports found, ever of a whole vertical stabilizer separating from a flight, no dents, hit marks, just massive separation: It was shortly after 9/11 and it was in the same city of one of the worst attacks in our history. Gee, anyone have a thought as to what could have happened? Regardless as to how you connect the dots in these near misses and disasters, we are at war and have Islamic radicals who threaten and scheme to do us in constantly. I think it is most clear that the 2005 close call on the LA flight and the flight this year out of Houston were attempted missile attacks, unless of course you think I have “modelrocketaphobia”.
