| - | The Civil Aeronautics Board Report did not rule out sabotage as the cause of the in-flight fire on United Flight 823. Page 14 of the report states: **"The combustible material and source of ignition that started the fire are not known. Although attempts to determine if any passenger had carried any hazardous material aboard the aircraft did not reveal this had occurred, the possibility cannot be ruled out. Such a material, either innocently or with malicious intent may have been in the possession of a passenger. Leakage or spillage of a flammable fluid with accidental or intentional ignition is a possible situation."** | + | The [[http://unitedflight823.s3.amazonaws.com/united-accident-report.pdf|Civil Aeronautics Board Aircraft Accident Report]] did not rule out sabotage as the cause of the in-flight fire on United Flight 823.

| Tests performed in the FBI lab on the free-fall man's clothing and various parts of the aircraft showed that there was no bomb residue found. These results, plus the fact that the aircraft did not explode in the air, as first reported, rule out the possibility of sabotage in the form of someone placing a bomb on the aircraft. | Tests performed in the FBI lab on the free-fall man's clothing and various parts of the aircraft showed that there was no bomb residue found.

| - | An assassination would have been best facilitated by using a bomb. A bomb would have also eliminated the need for the perpetrator to be present-which brings me to my next conclusion. | + | An assassination would have been best facilitated by using a bomb. A bomb would have also eliminated the need for the perpetrator to be present (on board)-which brings me to my next conclusion. |
| Wouldn't it make sense for a perpetrator to be familiar with the person whom he wished to assassinate and that he would make sure that the person targeted, in this case Senator Walters, actually boarded the plane? | Wouldn't it make sense for a perpetrator to be familiar with the person whom he wished to assassinate and that he would make sure that the person targeted, in this case Senator Walters, actually boarded the plane? | ||

| To believe that sabotage, no matter the person targeted, or for whatever reason, as the cause of the fire that took place on United Flight 823, is to implicate every adult person on board the plane that day. I'm unwilling to do that, because the more I look into this possibility, the less I believe that sabotage is what took place. | To believe that sabotage, no matter the person targeted, or for whatever reason, as the cause of the fire that took place on United Flight 823, is to implicate every adult person on board the plane that day.
