	TWA Flight 800 (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-22)
		After what has been billed as the longest and most expensive accident investigation in American history, the U.S. National Transportation Safety Board (NTSB) investigation found that the flammable fuel/air mixture of the center wing fuel tank probably ignited due to electrical failure in the center fuel tank, causing the plane to explode in flight.
		The terrorist theory was as usual one of the first to be mentioned, especially due to the fact that the accident happened during the Summer Olympic Games in Atlanta, where a bomb explosed ten days later (see Centennial Olympic Park bombing).
		Various groups and individuals continue to maintain that the plane was downed by a bomb or missile, and that there was a subsequent cover-up to disguise the real cause of the crash.

		The FAA stated that, including the TWA Flight 800 crash, there had been three fuel tank explosions in airliners over the previous 14 years (the two others having occurred on the ground), and that based on this statistic, fuel tank inerting devices could eliminate about 4 accidents over the next 25 years.

	Definition of EgyptAir Flight 990
		Soon after the new year arrived without incidents, of course, the myth of flight 990 being a sign from God largely disappeared from public scrutiny.
		It remains an open question as to whether this type of numerology has played a specific role in the planning of major terrorist attacks, or if it is a mere coincidence that such attacks have occurred with such degrees of symbolism.
		While it may never be known whether a terrorist attack was in fact prevented by those actions, such incidents might indeed be evidence that the use of numerology by such groups as Al Qaeda as part of a modus operandi is certainly a factor not to be ignored.
