It would be *very* tricky to fuel just 2 a/c - and no others - with
contaminated fuel.

One inadvertantly (or purposly) contaminated fuel truck could

manage
that
trick quite well. But I think we would know by now.

Vaughn

Assuming a truck on the scale of an R-5 and full fuel loads on both
aircraft it
is not likely both aircraft would be able to be refueled from the same
truck.
Of course it depends on initial fule levels in both aircraft

And the odds that both aircraft would then crash at about the same time,
even though one had been in the air quite a bit longer and covered a lot
more distance away from the departure point? The fuel bit has been a
long-shot from the get-go when you consider that fact, along with the
transponder signal reported to have been received from one aircraft. If

the
latest reports indicating that no out-of-the-ordinary conversations were
heard on the CVR's proves to be true, then you can nail the coffin door

shut
on "bad fuel".

There is absolutely no reason the crashes could be purely coincidental.


I assume you meant to put a "not" in

there after "could".

I did, thanks for pointing it out.


The
odds of that being the case are extremely long however.


The odds of it being a fuel problem are even more remote.

Hexogen explosive traces found in the Tu-154 wreck (confirmed/ reported from
Russia). One Chechenian women suspected since nobody asked for her
(speculation). Islambouli Brigades allegedly took responsibility.

Widely disbelieved - they have taken responsability for a lot of other
things in the past, which were later proven to be bogus.

loved one moan "and if you prickle us don't we bleed?"
