I watched a very interesting document yesterday on ARTE (French/German channel) about the investigation of Swiss Air’ MD11 crash.
This show was made by canadian TV I guess and it was absolutely brilliant.
Maybe some of you guys did watch it already on a British channel?

Your on the wrong tram, that was TWA 800

yeah, I certainly can’t recall ever hearing any suggestions of Missiles in the SR111 investigation.
HB-IWF came down whilst attempting an emergency landing at Halifax, after a fire broke out in the cockpit ceiling area, which was traced back to an insulation blanket catching fire after some IFE wires arced and sparked.

Aren’t those TW800 theories you’re making mention of, and not SwissAir?

I’ve not heard of it being shown on the terrestrial British television or else I would have watched it, but it may have been on Discovery or some other satellite channel.
