Pacific Southwest Airlines Flight 1771 | Plane Crash Wiki | Fandom powered by Wikia Pacific Southwest Airlines Flight 1771 Pacific Southwest Airlines Flight 1771 7pages on The Credit of information goes to, Wikipedia Page: PSA Flight 1771 An Animation of the Fight 1771 about to crash. Pacific Southwest Airlines Flight 1771 was a commercial flight that crashed near Cayucos, California, United States, on December 7, 1987, as a result of a murder-suicide scheme by one of the passengers. All 43 people on board the aircraft died. The man who caused the crash, David Burke (born May 18, 1952), was an angry former employee of USAir, the parent company of PSA. Contents Edit USAir had recently purchased and was in the process of absorbing Pacific Southwest Airlines. Burke had been terminated by USAir for petty theft of $69 from in-flight cocktail receipts, and had also been suspected of other crimes. After meeting with Raymond F.

Thomson, his supervisor, in an unsuccessful attempt to be reinstated, he purchased a ticket on PSA Flight 1771, a daily flight from Los Angeles to San Francisco. David Burke's supervisor was a passenger on the flight, which he took regularly for his daily commute to and from work. Using his unsurrendered USAir credentials, David Burke, armed with a loaded .44 Magnum revolver that he had borrowed from a co-worker, was able to use the employee security bypass checkpoint at Los Angeles International Airport. After boarding the plane, Burke wrote a message on an airsickness bag which he probably gave to Thomson to read before shooting him: Hi Ray. I think it's sort of ironical that we ended up like this. I asked for some leniency for my family. Remember? Well, I got none and you'll get none. As the plane, a four-engine British Aerospace BAe 146-200, cruised at 22,000 ft (6,700 m) over the central California coast, the cockpit voice recorder (CVR) recorded the sound of someone entering and then leaving the toilet.

The captain and the co-pilot asked air traffic control about turbulence when the sound of two shots being fired in the cabin was heard on the CVR. This was probably when Burke shot Thomson to death. The co-pilot immediately reported to air traffic control that a gun had been fired on board and no further transmissions were received. The CVR recorded the cockpit door opening and a female, presumed to be a flight attendant, told the cockpit crew, "We have a problem." The captain replied, "What kind of problem?" A shot was fired, presumably killing the flight attendant, and Burke announced "I'm the problem," and two more shots are heard that either incapacitated or killed the pilots. Several seconds later, the CVR picked up increasing windscreen noise as the airplane pitched down and accelerated. The remains of the flight data recorder (FDR) indicated the control column had been pushed forward, most likely by Burke, causing the aircraft to dive. A final gunshot was heard followed not long after by a sudden silence. It is speculated that the final shot fired by Burke had killed the airline's chief pilot, who was also on board as a passenger and who may have tried to reach the cockpit to save the aircraft.

According to the TV series Mayday, a fragment of Burke's fingertip was recovered with the gun which indicated that he was alive and holding the gun until impact. The plane crashed into the hillside of a cattle ranch at 4:16 p.m. in the Santa Lucia Mountains near Paso Robles and Cayucos. The plane was estimated to have crashed at a speed of around 770 mph (1,240 km/h), disintegrating instantly. It is estimated that the aircraft hit the ground at five thousand times the force of gravity, and was traveling at an approximately 70-degree angle toward the south. The plane struck a rocky hillside, leaving a crater less than 2 feet deep and 4 feet across, presumably where the landing gear struck the ground. The high-speed impact compressed the soil, which almost immediately rebounded, throwing fragments and paper (including the note by Burke) back into the air, before flames consumed them. No one survived the crash; the force of impact meant that human remains were very small, the largest being feet in shoes. The remains of 27 passengers were never identified.

After the crash site was located by a CBS News helicopter piloted by Bob Tur, investigators from the National Transportation Safety Board (NTSB) were joined by the Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI). After two days of digging through what was left of the plane, they found the parts of a handgun containing six spent cartridge cases and the note on the airsickness bag written by Burke, indicating he may have been responsible for the crash. FBI investigators were able to lift a print from a fragment of finger stuck in the pistol's trigger guard, which positively identified Burke as holding the weapon when the aircraft crashed. In addition to the evidence uncovered at the crash site, other factors surfaced: Burke's co-worker admitted to having lent him the gun, and Burke had also left a farewell message on his girlfriend's telephone answering machine. David Burke Edit The perpetrator, David Burke, was born May 18, 1952 to Jamaican parents living in Britain. Previously Burke had worked for an airline in Rochester, New York, where he was a suspect in a drug-smuggling ring that was bringing cocaine from Jamaica to Rochester via the airline. He was never officially charged, but is reported to have relocated to Los Angeles to avoid future suspicions.

Some former girlfriends, neighbors and law-enforcement described him as a violent man before the murders. He had seven children, but never married. Consequences Edit Several federal laws were passed after the crash, including a law that required "immediate seizure of all airline employee credentials" after an employee's termination from an airline position. A policy was also put into place stipulating that all airline flight crew were to be subject to the same security measures as passengers. The crash killed three managers and the president of Chevron USA, James R. Sylla, along with three officials of Pacific Bell, which prompted many large corporations to create or revise policies on group travel by executives. Large Debris Field, No Bodies, No Large Plane Parts. Flight 93? Think again, page 1 link PSA Flight 1771 Pacific Southwest Airlines Flight 1771 was a commercial flight that crashed near Cayucos, California, December 7, 1987. All 43 people on board the aircraft died, including the man who caused the crash, a disgruntled former employee of USAir, the parent company of PSA. He shot his former supervisor, both the pilots, then himself as the plane went down.

Although this crash is not exactly like the crash of flight 93, the explanation of details is eerily similar to that of the crash on 9-11 in Shanksville. Detective Bill Wammock is the first to arrive on the scene. He recalls “nothing that resembled an airliner... we went on for hours, before we heard the news reports of a missing airliner, believing that we were dealing with a small airplane full of newspapers that had crashed. We saw no pieces of the aircraft that were larger than, maybe, a human hand. It did not look like a passenger aircraft.” What was very interesting was that although this plane crashed at supersonic speed, a suicide note written by the gunman (on an air-sickness bag) was found. In addition to the note, parts of the gun used in the killings were found. Amazingly enough, there was a shred of tissue still on the gun that matched the killers fingerprints. With minimal remnants of a plane remaining, the CVR was still recovered. When analyzed it recorded the shots of the gun and the voice of the killer just prior to shooting the pilots.

Watch this 9 minute video from the BlackBox series: "nothing but papers blowing in the breeze" "things hanging in the trees" "the thought never occurred to me that this was bits and pieces of a large plane" "in most cases nothing larger than a mans hand" "pictures of family members found" "credit cards" link It took a while, but I'm finally seeing here, evidence that supports that the flight 93 debris field is consistent with a large airliner crash. I have been waiting for something along these lines for sometime, since skeptics and debunkers have constantly decried all the objections to the official story as nonsense. Here is something that would give more weight to their battle cries. But I must ask; This plane came down at 10 degrees from vertical at 720 MPH. How does this compare to the Flight 93 crash, as mentioned by the OP? I have never felt that there was some issue with the flight 93 crash story, except it blatant opposition to the notion that it was not shot down. I don't actually think it matters in terms of the overall events of that day, shot down or not, those people died.

But I would like to hear some take on the 'debris' field comparison that begs the question. [edit on 18-8-2008 by Maxmars] Flight 93: Ziad Jarrah's damaged passport was found. Truthers often claim this as an anomaly. Flight 1771: Ex-worker's badge found SAN DIEGO - A badge identifying David Burke, a fired USAir employee suspected of causing the crash of a jetliner, was found amid the wreckage of the plane, contradicting airline statements that he had returned his credentials, it was reported. The San Diego Union said the USAir identification badge of Burke, 35, the fired USAir employee suspected of firing gunshots that led to the crash of Pacific Southwest Airlines Flight 1771, was recovered from the California hillside where the plane crashed Dec. 7. link "I was starled by this, uh.... because things were blowing all over the place, 7.... 8 miles away.... and we had what appeared to be millions of pieces of paper...." That was from the video. I'd never heard of this particular event, although I was in the area at the time. Thanks TY for bringing this to our attention.

I've been one of the fence-riders, thinking that it was likely that Flight 93 was shot down. Still not 100% convinced, but I think this is powerful, verifiable, real evidence that airplane crashes don't always manifest themselves in a logical manner, than conditions can exist, particularly with a sharp angle, overfast crash that absolutely obliterate everything. Good job. link Among the dead were four executives of the Chevron Corporation USA. They were James R. Sylla, president of Chevron U.S.A. Inc., the company's domestic oil and gas subsidiary, and Owen F. Murphy, Jocelyn G. Kempe and Allen F. Swanson, all public affairs executives of Chevron U.S.A. from Southern California. Other fatalities included Wolfgang Studemann, a West German physicist and space scientist who was the director of the Max Planck Institute for Aeronomy in Lindau, West Germany and Dr. Neil Webb, president of Dominican University of California.[1] Interesting find. So far as 911 goes the damage is done. The perp was also involved in the coc aine biz out of Jamaica. [THIS POST IN RESPONSE TO AMATERASU] - reply function not working ha!

At first I took offense, until I figured out what you meant. At the time of this crash, I was living in the S.F. Bay area, 100+ miles to the north. Stranger still, is that my "turf" that I drove to check on jobs was at that time all up and down the California coast. Sooooo, I just went looking for a reference to this crash, and I'll be danged if I can find anything (so far) that doesn't eventually tie back to as the resource. Now, I seriously doubt really that an airplane crash was fabricated to support the Flight 93 circumstances; however, being the person I am, I gotta admit I'm intrigued, and going to go do some more searches. See, I WANT this story to be verifiable. It lends creedence to MY view of Flight 93. Excellent post, OP, -- I'm not besmirching you or your research. Off to verify. [edit on 18-8-2008 by argentus] Max, The OP clearly states that the crash is not exactly the same as flight 93.

The debris field, quotes from the investigators, size of debris, human remains, etc. They are all very similar. This video shows again what is expected from a high speed air crash. Thanks! -TY- I wasn't criticizing I am just curious how the angle and speeds compare thats all. Don;t be so defensive, I am glad you found this, and I consider myself a 'truther' of sorts. I want all evidence considered. This has been lacking, and I find it ironic that people never brought this up sooner - this is a strong argument that the Flight 93 crash site is not 'anomalous' as many contended. link Originally posted by Maxmars I wasn't criticizing I am just curious how the angle and speeds compare thats all.

On December 7, 1987, it crashed in Cayucos, California , as a result of a murder–suicide by one of the passengers. All 43 passengers and crew aboard the BAe 146 died, five of whom, including the two pilots, were presumably shot dead before the plane crashed. The man who caused the crash, David A.

Burke, was a disgruntled former employee of USAir , the parent company of PSA. A dramatization of the incident was portrayed on the TV documentary series, Mayday . Contents The incident[ edit ] USAir had recently purchased Pacific Southwest Airlines . Burke, an aircraft cleaning specialist, had been recently terminated by USAir for petty theft of $69 from in-flight cocktail receipts and had also been suspected of other theft including receipts totaling thousands of dollars. [3] After meeting with Ray Thomson, his manager, in an unsuccessful attempt to be reinstated, Burke purchased a ticket on PSA flight 1771, a daily flight from Los Angeles to San Francisco . Thomson was a passenger on the flight, which he regularly took for his daily commute from his workplace at LAX to his home in the San Francisco Bay Area. [4] Using his unsurrendered USAir employee credentials, Burke, armed with a loaded .44 Magnum revolver that he had borrowed from a co-worker, was able to bypass the normal passenger security checkpoint at Los Angeles International Airport . [5] After boarding the plane, Burke wrote a message on an airsickness bag.

It is not known if he gave the message to Thomson to read before shooting him: "Hi Ray. I think it's sort of ironical that we end up like this. I asked for some leniency for my family. Remember? Well, I got none and you'll get none." [3] [6] [7] As the aircraft, a four-engine British Aerospace BAe 146-200 , cruised at 22,000 ft (6,700 m) over the central California coast, the cockpit voice recorder (CVR) recorded the sound of someone entering and then leaving the lavatory. The Mayday episode suggests that this was Burke entering the lavatory to draw his revolver discreetly, possibly loading it and giving Thomson time to read the note before killing him. 44-year-old pilot Gregg Lindamood and 48-year-old co-pilot James Nunn were asking air traffic control about turbulence when the CVR picked up the sound of two shots being fired in the cabin. The most plausible theory as to what happened was deduced from the pattern and audible volume of the shots on the CVR.

According to the Mayday episode, it is likely that Burke first shot Thomson twice. Thomson's own seat was never recovered. Part of a seat that was identified from its serial number as being directly behind Thomson's was found to have two bullet holes in it. Due to the power of the revolver, the bullets must have traveled through Thomson's body, his seat, and then through the seat behind. First Officer Nunn immediately reported to air traffic control that a gun had been fired on board and no further transmissions were received from the crew. At that point, the CVR recorded the cockpit door opening and Flight Attendant Deborah Neil telling the cockpit crew, "We have a problem!" Captain Lindamood replied, "What's the problem?" A shot was heard as Burke shot the flight attendant dead, and announced "I'm the problem." He then fired two more rounds. Most likely, he shot the pilot and copilot once each, incapacitating them, if not outright killing them. Several seconds later, the CVR picked up increasing windscreen noise as the airplane pitched down and accelerated. The remains of the flight data recorder (FDR) indicated Burke had pushed the control column forward into a dive.

A final gunshot was heard followed not long after by a sudden silence. It is most likely that Burke killed Douglas Arthur, PSA's Chief Pilot in Los Angeles, who was also on board as a passenger and may have been trying to reach the cockpit to save the aircraft. There was some speculation that Burke shot himself, though this seems unlikely, because a fragment of Burke's fingertip was lodged in the trigger when the investigators found the revolver, which indicated that he was alive and holding the gun up until the moment of impact. [8] The plane crashed into the hillside of a cattle ranch at 4:16 p.m. in the Santa Lucia Mountains near Paso Robles [9] and Cayucos , exploding on impact. The plane was estimated to have crashed slightly faster than the speed of sound, at around 770 mph (1,240 km/h), disintegrating instantly. Based on the deformation of the hardened steel black box data recorder case, the aircraft experienced a deceleration of 5,000 times the force of gravity ( G-force ) when it hit the ground. It was traveling at an approximately 70-degree angle toward the south.

The plane struck a rocky hillside, leaving a crater less than two feet (0.6 m) deep and four feet (1.2 m) across. The remains of 27 passengers were never identified. After the crash site was located by a CBS News helicopter piloted by Bob Tur , investigators from the National Transportation Safety Board (NTSB) were joined by the Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI).

The tragic 1987 event was, at that time, the 2nd worst mass murder event in US History (just 2 shy of the 1927 Bath, Michigan school bombing). Flight 1771 remains the worst incident of mass murder in the history of California. But for some strange reason, the amazing story began to fade away from the media's radar, literally within 24 hours of the event. An archival review of The New York Times (aka the "paper of record") turns up just 4 short and incomplete stories over a 4 day period. The headlines are listed below, followed by our rebuttal.

Stay with this piece because there is a shocking twist at the end; a twist which will tie in 'the Big Picture' of things. NY Times Archives / December 8, 1987 California Plane Crash Kills 44; Gunshots Are Reported in Cabin By ANDREW POLLACK, Special to The New York Times / Page A-1 NY Times Archives / December 9, 1987 4 Chevron Officials Died in Air Crash By LAWRENCE M. FISHER, Special to the New York Times / Page A-1 NY Times Archives / December 11, 1987 Threatening Note Is Found at Site of Fatal Jet Crash By RICHARD WITKIN / Page A-28 * NY Times Archives / December 11, 1987 NY Times Archives: Kin of Suspect Defiant and Contrite By JUDITH CUMMINGS, Special to the New York Times / Page A-28 . As a lifelong 'news junkie' with an elephantine memory, your intrepid reporter here at The Anti-New York Times still recalls the first CNN reports of the 1987 crash of Pacific Southwest Airlines Flight 1771.

I can also recall having a small sense of wonder as to why the mysterious crash had faded from the News so quickly. This was during my pre-Enlightenment / pre-Internet college days. So I thought nothing more of the suddenly spiked story, subconsciously storing it in my memory banks and moving on to the next event of the day, or the next pretty co-ed to catch my eye. It was only just yesterday that I chanced across an Internet comment about the mysterious event and its even more mysterious media burial. In an 'a-ha moment' state, I thought to myself, "Yes! That's right! I do remember that crash and how the story just faded away." Within minutes, the older and wiser Mike King went to work to dig up and summarize the truth; a truth which shocked even this veteran reporter. The following true narrative was confirmed by Flight Data Recordings, Cockpit Voice Recordings, crash site forensics, and logically sound inference. A discarded memory file is suddenly reopened. In early December of 1987, a ticket agent named David Burke was fired by USAir (which owned Pacific Southwest Airlines) for petty theft of $69 from in-flight cocktail receipts.

On December 7th, Burke met with Raymond Thomson, his supervisor, in an unsuccessful appeal of his firing. Burke stormed out of Thomson's office muttering a cryptic threat, aimed at Thomson, to the secretary. Frustrated and angry, Burke then purchased a ticket on PSA Flight 1771, a daily flight used mostly by executives, flying from Los Angeles to San Francisco. Raymond Thompson was a regular passenger on the flight. Using his un-surrendered US Air credentials, Burke bypassed the normal security checkpoint at LAX while carrying a concealed .44 Magnum revolver. After boarding the plane, Burke wrote a message on an air-sickness bag. It is probable, though not known for certain, that he gave the message to Thomson to read just before going to the lavatory, and then re-emerging moments later. The air bag note, later discovered near the crash site, read: "Hi Ray. I think it's sort of ironical that we ended up like this. I asked for some leniency for my family. Remember?

Well, I got none and you'll get none." As the aircraft cruised at 22,000 ft over the California coast, the cockpit voice recorder of the relatively small plane recorded the sound of someone entering, and then exiting the lavatory. The timing of the lavatory door sounds, Burke's seating proximity to Thomson, and the two quick gun shots heard just after the 2nd door closing sound, suggest that Burke entered the lavatory in order to discreetly draw his gun. The captain and the co-pilot were speaking to air traffic control when the Cockpit Voice Recorder (CVR) picked up the sound of the first two shots being fired. The most plausible theory as to what happened was deduced from the pattern and audible volume of the shots on the CVR. It appears that Burke first shot Thomson twice. Though Thomson's own seat was never recovered, part of a serial numbered seat that was identified from the wreckage as being directly behind Thomson's was found to have two bullet holes in it. Due to the power of the Magnum .44, the bullets must have traveled through Thomson's body, his seat, and then through the seat behind.

The co-pilot immediately reported that a gun had been fired and no further transmissions were received from the crew. At that point, the CVR recorded the cockpit door opening and a female flight attendant telling the pilots, "We have a problem!" The captain replied, "What kind of problem?" A shot was heard as Burke shot the flight attendant dead, and announced "I'm the problem." He then fired two more rounds. Most likely, he shot the pilot and copilot once each, incapacitating or killing them on the spot. Several seconds later, the CVR picked up increasing windscreen noise as the airplane pitched sharply downward and accelerated. The remains of the flight data recorder (FDR) indicated Burke had pushed the control column forward into a dive. Dramatization of the descent into death / All Flight recorders recovered (unlike 9/11, but I digress) A final gunshot was heard followed not long after by a sudden silence. It is believed that Burke killed the airline's chief pilot, who was also on board as a passenger and may have been trying to reach the cockpit to save the aircraft.

There was some speculation that Burke actually shot himself, though this seems unlikely because a fragment of Burke's fingertip was lodged in the trigger when the investigators found the revolver. This indicated that he was alive and gripping his gun right up until the very moment of impact. After descending for about 1 minute at a very steep angle, the plane crashed into the hillside of a cattle ranch in the Santa Lucia Mountains near Paso Robles and Cayucos. The plane was estimated to have crashed at around 770 mph, disintegrating instantly. Flight 1771 struck a rocky hillside, leaving a crater 2 feet deep and 4 feet across, presumably where the landing gear struck the ground. The high-speed impact compressed the soil, which almost immediately rebounded, throwing fragments and sheets of paper (including the note by Burke) back into the air. The force of impact meant that human remains were very small, the largest being feet in shoes. Forty three died in all and the remains of 27 passengers were never identified.

Less than 48 hours after the crash site was located by a CBS News helicopter, investigators from the NTSB and FBI found parts of a handgun containing six spent cartridge cases and the note on the air-sickness bag written by Burke, indicating he may have been responsible for the crash. FBI investigators were able to lift a print from a fragment of a finger stuck in the pistol's trigger guard, which positively identified Burke as holding the weapon when the aircraft crashed. In addition to the evidence uncovered at the crash site, other factors surfaced: Burke's co-worker admitted to having lent him the gun and Burke had also left a farewell message on his girlfriend's answering machine. So you see, it didn't exactly take a Sherlock Holmes to quickly solve this 'whodunnit'. Once you rule out the security-screened passengers, you are left with either a freshly fired ex-worker who still has security clearance privileges, or the executive Thomson; the man who fired Burke. Add in an actual severed trigger finger of the mass murderer and even the dim-witted dopes of the American News Media could have figured this one out, and quick too. Just think - what a story!

Workplace rage, revenge, one-on-one murder followed by mass murder-suicide, terrified passengers screaming as they hurtle towards certain death, grief-stricken widows and children, big shots from Chevron and a prominent German scientist aboard the plane, forensic investigative drama etc. It wasn't enough for the thieving murderous bastard to kill his innocent ex-boss, he had to take a planeload of other innocent people down with him! If any news story that year 'had legs', one would think it would have been the David Burke drama. But instead, the story just dried up as soon as it became known what had happened. It's as though the event has been erased from history. Indeed, there is only a small, nameless commemoration plaque at the site of the mass murder-crash! A small, cheap plaque in the grass is all that there is to remember the lost crew (right) and all the passengers of Flight 1771 Even Aviation Magazine only carries a small blurb about this most unprecedented event in the history of American Aviation. The brief and vague piece, which doesn't even mention Burke's name, is accompanied by a dramatized photo of the hijacking. Here it is again: (here) .

Digging a bit further into this fantastic tale, we learn that David Burke had previously worked for an airline in Rochester, New York, where he was a suspect in a cocaine smuggling ring to Rochester via the airline. He was never officially charged and reportedly relocated to Los Angeles to avoid future suspicions. Some former girlfriends, neighbours, and law enforcement officials described him as a violent man before Flight 1771. Why wasn't the name of David Burke ever branded like those of relatively contemporary mass killers who killed far fewer people than he? Names such as Charles Manson, David Berkowitz (Son of Sam), Richard Speck, Ted Bundy, John Wayne Gacy, Jeffrey Dahmer, Timothy McVeigh, Ted Kaczynski (The Unabomber) etc. were hyped to the stars and have since become part of American folklore. But not David Burke. Why is that? Did some powerful person or group decide to erase Burke's name from public view? If so, why? Let's meet Mr. Burke, shall we? Yes; that David Burke. David Burke was born May 18, 1952, to Jamaican parents living in Britain. He was, as you can see, Black.

If you are a regular reader, you should know by now where your author is going with this. Is it really even necessary at this point to ask the question, "Why was this developing story suddenly spiked and then buried for eternity?" To my dear Black readers, please don't get your panties up in a bunch because this is not about ripping on Black folks. The sole intent here is to expose the corrupt media's self-evident and dangerously inflammatory 'War On Whites'. It is a war in which the fairy tale narrative of evil Whites lurking under every rock, plotting to oppress innocent Blacks (and Jews, and Hispanics), must never be contradicted. Only Whites are capable of bigotry, but never Blacks or Browns! This monstrous lie keeps the targeted Whites feeling guilty and neutered while whipping up many colored folk in a constant state of fear and malevolent loathing. Therefore, the explosive nature of the Flight 1771 story had to be spiked at all costs and for all eternity.

After spending 2 days as one of the front page stories of the New York Times, (December 8 & 9), the story dropped down to page A-28 as soon as it was learned who the shooter-hijacker actually was (December 11). Burke's photo was never published. By the following day, the historic mass murder drama was gone from Sulzberger's Times, and the TV media, altogether. Compare this silent treatment to the dozen or so New York Times front page stories and photos afforded to each of the more recent Trayvon Martin and Michael Brown shootings (both 'victims' were Black / the justified shooters were White & White-Hispanic), and the evidence of a corrupt conspiratorial media covering up 'anti-Whiteism' becomes irrefutable. The San Bernardino County Times (a small local paper) offered an honest glimpse into Burke's animosity towards White people (which all, or nearly all, of the passengers certainly were).

From its December 12, 1987 issue: "Burke, who was black, had alleged to state authorities long before he was fired that Thomson had passed him over for promotion because of race." "On July 15, Burke went to the state Department of Fair Employment and Housing and said he had been passed over twice for promotion to customer service supervisor. Burke alleged white workers with less experience were promoted to the supervisory positions he deserved, said Annabella Hwa, the department's district manager in Los Angeles. Burke, although investigated several times for alleged drug involvement and auto theft in New-York, was never charged." (here) You see, in the warped mind of the racist-bigot David Burke, being passed over for a promotion couldn't possibly have had anything to do with company suspicions that he may have once been involved with a Jamaican drug-smuggling ring, or that he was clearly a troubled head-case. No. It was "racism" that got White people promoted over him. Of course! And it was "racism" that got him fired after he was caught stealing money- on camera!

David Burke was a violent abusive man who fathered 7 children out of wedlock with multiple "baby mammas". And, make no mistake, he hated White people. We can imagine the great delight which Burke took in blowing that White Flight Attendant's brains out, just after offing Mr. Thomson, and just before blasting the White pilots. Burke's delight was probably similar to the orgiastic "gratification" that the 'Reverend' (barf) Jesse Jack-Ass once admitted to feeling whenever he, as a young hotel worker, would gleefully spit in White people's food. (here) By 1987, Jesse Jack-Ass, Al Charlatan, and Eric the Red Holder had already been exalted by the media-gods as prominent "civil rights leaders". There was not a peep from them about the racist mass murder that took place aboard Flight 1771! Fortunately, if that's the right word, Burke did not hijack a 747. Surely, he would have killed 300 people in that case. My God!

Can you even begin to imagine what would have happened if a racist Ku Klux Klansman had hijacked and mass murder-crashed a plane full of Black passengers en route to an NAACP event? There would have been a month long, no, year long, media circus unprecedented in American history. The 6 hour memorial ceremony would have been broadcast live on every TV station; the event being narrated by holier-than-thou TV talking heads and attended by hundreds of Congressmen and Senators lining up to pay their respects. The on-site monument, with engraved names of the victims, would have been taller than the Washington monument. There would have been Hollywood films, annual remembrance extravaganzas, revenge attacks, marches, vigils, and songs. White libtards would have formed human hand-holding chains from coast to coast, inexplicably 'apologizing' for an act they had nothing to do with. The National Football League would not have played its games that weekend, and would have forced its players to wear ribbons for the remainder of the season. The upcoming Christmas festivities and ads would have been dampened down as "inappropriate." Every history book would contain a whole chapter on the event.

The killer's name would today be known to every schoolchild in America. There would have been commemorative postage stamps, group site tours ala Auschwitz, a national Black Holiday, artistic reenactments combined with anti-White self-flagellation and "National conversations" for the next 50 years, at least. Imagine the slogans: "Flight 1770: Never again!" - or "The other December 7th, a date which will also live in infamy." Do I paint a clear picture? Or am I exaggerating? Dear reader, if the sudden Orwellian silent treatment given to this jaw-dropping story in 1987 and ever since then - as compared to the 24/7 media hype afforded to even the slightest White-on-Black controversy (Tawana Brawley 'rape' hoax, Rodney King verdict, Jimmy the Greek comments, Marge Schott comments, Duke University 'rape' hoax, Trayvon Martin & Michael Brown shootings etc.) - doesn't conclusively prove, beyond any shadow of a doubt, that the corrupt US News Media is deliberately waging a 'War on Whites', then you are beyond help at this point.

Just sit back and enjoy your well-deserved fate, or should I say, your children and grand-children's undeserved fate. The 'War on Whites', who are on direct course to becoming politically dispossessed minorities in both America & Europe, is very real and actually much worse today under Obongo the Terrible than it was in 1987. Syndicated columnist Pat Buchanan cracks the code for us (partially at least): "Global elites view the White Western world as the main obstacle standing in the way of a future world government. Multiculturalism is a tool used by such elites to dismantle White Western civilization". What can you do about it? The first step is to educate yourselves, and others, as to who these 'Global elites' are and why they do what they do. Mass circulate this powerful story, for starters. Let's make David Burke famous, or infamous I should say!

And, if you haven't already done so, be sure to read, no, study our epic 'flagship piece' entitled: This Day In History – December 7th «TwistedSifter JAPAN ATTACKS PEARL HARBOR – DECEMBER 7, 1941 The attack on Pearl Harbor was a surprise military strike conducted by the Imperial Japanese Navy against the United States naval base at Pearl Harbor, Hawaii, on the morning of December 7, 1941 (December 8 in Japan). The attack was intended as a preventive action in order to keep the U.S. Pacific Fleet from interfering with military actions the Empire of Japan was planning in Southeast Asia against overseas territories of the United Kingdom, the Netherlands, and the United States. The base was attacked by 353 Japanese fighters, bombers and torpedo planes in two waves, launched from six aircraft carriers. All eight U.S. Navy battleships were damaged, with four being sunk. All but two of the eight were raised, repaired and returned to service later in the war. The Japanese also sank or damaged three cruisers, three destroyers, an anti-aircraft training ship, and one minelayer. One hundred eighty-eight U.S.

aircraft were destroyed; 2,402 Americans were killed and 1,282 wounded. The power station, shipyard, maintenance, and fuel and torpedo storage facilities, as well as the submarine piers and headquarters building (also home of the intelligence section) were not attacked. Japanese losses were light: 29 aircraft and five midget submarines lost, and 65 servicemen killed or wounded. One Japanese sailor was captured. The attack came as a profound shock to the American people and led directly to the American entry into World War II in both the Pacific and European theaters. The following day the United States declared war on Japan. Domestic support for isolationism, which had been strong, disappeared. Clandestine support of Britain (for example the Neutrality Patrol) was replaced by active alliance. Subsequent operations by the U.S. prompted Germany and Italy to declare war on the U.S. on December 11, which was reciprocated by the U.S. the same day. There were numerous historical precedents for unannounced military action by Japan. However, the lack of any formal warning, particularly while negotiations were still apparently ongoing, led President Franklin D.

Roosevelt to proclaim December 7, 1941, “a date which will live in infamy”.

DEADLIEST HOTEL FIRE IN US HISTORY AT THE WINECOFF HOTEL IN ATLANTA – DECEMBER 7, 1946 The Winecoff Hotel, today the Ellis Hotel, is located at 176 Peachtree Street NW, in downtown Atlanta, Georgia, USA. Designed by William Lee Stoddart, the 15-story building opened in 1913. The Winecoff is best known for a fire that occurred there on December 7, 1946, in which 119 people died. It remains the deadliest hotel fire in U.S. history, and prompted many changes in building codes. Guests at the hotel that night included teenagers attending a Tri-Y and Tri-Hi-Y Youth Conference, Christmas shoppers, and people in town to see Song of the South.

Arnold Hardy, a 26-year-old graduate student at Georgia Tech, became the first amateur to win a Pulitzer Prize in photography for his snapshot of a woman in mid-air after jumping from the 11th floor of the hotel during the fire. The jumper, who survived, Daisy B. McCumber, was born October 9, 1905 and died in Florida on August 12, 1992 at the age of 86. From her jump she sustained a broken back, pelvis and both legs. Over a ten year period of time she underwent seven surgeries and lost a leg. Under these circumstances, she still worked until her retirement. [ Source ] INSTANT REPLAY IS USED FOR FIRST TIME IN SPORTS – DEC. 7, 1963 The college football game between Army and Navy marks the first use of video instant replay during a sports telecast. Many fans had found it confusing. The annual matchup between these two military service academies always garnered national attention, but the ‘63 game carried added significance after the Nov. 22 assassination of President John F. Kennedy delayed the game and hundreds of other college football contests around the country.

(Kennedy himself had been slated to attend the game.) With the game postponed a week to Dec. 7, CBS decided to use it as a trial for the new videotape instant-replay system. Tony Verna, a 29-year-old TV producer, was at the helm of the production. Having already made his mark directing the 1960 Summer Olympics in Rome, Verna felt he was up to the job. Things didn’t go as planned and technical issues meant that the only time Verna’s crew was able to successfully get a play rebroadcast over the air while the game was underway was at the end, when Army scored a touchdown to cut the deficit to six points. As Michael Connelly describes it in his book The President’s Team: The 1963 Army-Navy Game and the Assassination of JFK, millions of people watching at home were instantly beside themselves with bewilderment. People watching the game on television were confused. After [Army quarterback Rollie] Stichweh rolled right and plunged into the end zone for a 1-yard touchdown, they saw him do exactly the same thing again. Immediately, the CBS phone lines were inundated with phone calls to confirm whether Army had scored again.

Alas, Army had not scored again, broadcaster Lindsey Nelson assured the viewers, and the game ended with Navy knocking off Army, 21-15. [ Source ] Apollo 17 was the eleventh and final manned mission in the American Apollo space program. Launched at 12:33 a.m. EST on December 7, 1972, with a three-member crew consisting of Commander Eugene Cernan, Command Module Pilot Ronald Evans, and Lunar Module Pilot Harrison Schmitt, Apollo 17 remains the most recent manned Moon landing and the most recent manned flight beyond low Earth orbit. Apollo 17 was the sixth Apollo lunar landing, the first night launch of a U.S. human spaceflight and the final manned launch of a Saturn V rocket. It was a “J-type mission”, missions including three-day lunar surface stays, extended scientific capability, and the third Lunar Roving Vehicle. While Evans remained in lunar orbit above in the Command/Service Module, Cernan and Schmitt spent just over three days on the lunar surface in the Taurus-Littrow valley, conducting three periods of extra-vehicular activity, or moonwalks, during which they collected lunar samples and deployed scientific instruments.

Cernan, Evans, and Schmitt returned to Earth on December 19 after an approximately 12-day mission. Apollo 17 also broke several records set by previous flights, including the longest manned lunar landing flight; the longest total lunar surface extravehicular activities; the largest lunar sample return, and the longest time in lunar orbit. [ Source ] The Blue Marble is a famous photograph of the Earth taken on December 7, 1972, by the crew of the Apollo 17 spacecraft at a distance of about 45,000 kilometres (28,000 mi). The snapshot is likely one of the most widely distributed photographic images in existence. The image is one of the few to show a fully illuminated Earth, as the astronauts had the Sun behind them when they took the image. To the astronauts, Earth had the appearance of a glass marble (hence the name). Pacific Southwest Airlines Flight 1771 was a commercial flight that crashed near Cayucos, California, United States, on December 7, 1987, as a result of a murder-suicide scheme by one of the passengers. All 43 people on board the aircraft died.

The murderer who caused the crash, David Burke (born May 18, 1952), was an angry former employee of USAir, the parent company of PSA. Burke had been terminated by USAir, which had recently purchased and was in the process of absorbing Pacific Southwest Airlines, for petty theft of $69 from in-flight cocktail receipts. After meeting with his supervisor in an unsuccessful attempt to be reinstated, he purchased a ticket on PSA Flight 1771, a daily flight from Los Angeles to San Francisco. Burke’s supervisor, Raymond F. Thomson, was a passenger on the flight, which he took regularly for his commute from San Francisco to Los Angeles International Airport (LAX). Using his unsurrendered USAir credentials, Burke, armed with a loaded .44 Magnum revolver that he had borrowed from a co-worker, was able to bypass the security checkpoint at LAX. After boarding the plane, Burke wrote a message on an airsickness bag which read: “Hi Ray. I think it’s sort of ironical that we ended up like this. I asked for some leniency for my family. Remember?

Well, I got none and you’ll get none.” Burke shot his ex-boss and then proceed to shoot and kill both pilots and finally turned the gun on himself taking his own life. The crash killed the president, James R.Sylla, 53, and three other managers of Chevron USA along with three officials of Pacific Bell, which prompted many large corporations to create or revise policies on group travel by executives. [ Source ] 1988 SPITAK EARTHQUAKE IN ARMENIA KILLS 25,000 – DECEMBER 7, 1988 The Spitak Earthquake (also called Leninakan Earthquake and Gyumri Earthquake) was a tremor with a magnitude of 6.9, that took place on December 7, 1988 at 11:41 local time (07:41 UTC) in the Spitak region of Armenia, then part of the Soviet Union. The earthquake killed at least 25,000 people; geologists and earthquake engineering experts laid the blame on the poorly built support structures of apartments and other buildings built during the “stagnation” era of Leonid Brezhnev.

Despite the tensions of the Cold War, Soviet leader Mikhail Gorbachev formally asked the United States, within a few days of the earthquake, for humanitarian help, the first such request since World War II. 111 countries, including Belgium, Chile, China, France, Finland, Great Britain, Israel, Italy, Japan, Norway, South Africa, South Korea, Sweden, Switzerland, US, West Germany, and Yugoslavia sent a substantial amount of humanitarian aid to the Soviet Union in the form of rescue equipment, search teams and medical supplies. One Soviet plane carrying 78 relief workers, and one Yugoslav transport plane crashed in separate incidents, while supplying aid to the region. [ Source ] Colin Ferguson (born January 14, 1958) is a mass murderer who was convicted of murdering six people and injuring nineteen others on the Long Island Rail Road in Garden City, New York. On December 7, 1993, as the train pulled into the Merillon Avenue Station, Ferguson pulled out his gun and started firing at passengers. He killed six and wounded nineteen before being stopped by three of the passengers: Kevin Blum, Mark McEntee, and Mike O’Connor.

Ferguson’s trial was notable for a number of unusual developments, including his firing of his defense counsel and insisting on representing himself and questioning his own victims on the stand. Ferguson was convicted on February 17, 1995, of murder for the deaths of the six passengers who died of their injuries. He was also convicted of attempted murder for wounding nineteen passengers. He is serving his sentence of 315-years-and-8-months to life at the Attica Correctional Facility in western New York. His current earliest possible parole date is August 6, 2309. [ Source ] GALILEO FIRST SPACECRAFT TO ORBIT JUPITER – DECEMBER 7, 1995 Galileo was an unmanned spacecraft sent by NASA to study the planet Jupiter and its moons. Named after the astronomer and Renaissance pioneer Galileo Galilei, it was launched on October 18, 1989 by the Space Shuttle Atlantis on the STS-34 mission. It arrived at Jupiter on December 7, 1995, a little more than six years later, via gravitational assist flybys of Venus and Earth.

Despite suffering from antenna problems, Galileo conducted the first asteroid flyby near 951 Gaspra, discovered the first asteroid moon, Dactyl, around the asteroid 243 Ida, and was the first spacecraft to orbit Jupiter. It furthermore launched the first probe into Jupiter’s atmosphere. On September 21, 2003, after 14 years in space and 8 years of service in the Jovian system, Galileo’s mission was terminated by sending the orbiter into Jupiter’s atmosphere at a speed of nearly 50 kilometres per second to avoid any chance of it contaminating local moons with bacteria from Earth. Of particular concern was the ice-crusted moon Europa, which, thanks to Galileo, scientists now suspect harbors a potentially life-supporting saltwater ocean beneath its surface. [ Source ] The Galilean moons of Jupiter. From left, they are Io, Europa, Ganymede, and Callisto. This composite includes the four largest moons of Jupiter which are known as the Galilean satellites. The Galilean satellites were first seen by the Italian astronomer Galileo Galilei in 1610.

Shown from left to right in order of increasing distance from Jupiter, Io is closest, followed by Europa, Ganymede, and Callisto. The order of these satellites from the planet Jupiter helps to explain some of the visible differences among the moons. Io is subject to the strongest tidal stresses from the massive planet. These stresses generate internal heating which is released at the surface and makes Io the most volcanically active body in our solar system. Europa appears to be strongly differentiated with a rock/iron core, an ice layer at its surface, and the potential for local or global zones of water between these layers. Tectonic resurfacing brightens terrain on the less active and partially differentiated moon Ganymede. Callisto, furthest from Jupiter, appears heavily cratered at low resolutions and shows no evidence of internal activity. North is to the top of this composite picture in which these satellites have all been scaled to a common factor of 10 kilometers (6 miles) per picture element. The Solid State Imaging (CCD) system aboard NASA’s Galileo spacecraft acquired the Io and Ganymede images in June 1996, the Europa images in September 1996, and the Callisto images in November 1997.

Quote of the Week One of the most significant results of this Presidential campaign has been the political awakening of millions of whites. Trump told them the system was rotten and rigged so it became permissible for them to state that openly and with confidence rather than having to first look over their shoulders or wonder whether the person they were speaking to was safe to confide with. The vicious and blatant bias of the media and the opposition were confirmations in the minds of millions that the system was their enemy. They will not easily be lulled back to the suicidal mentality of before.

Even if Trump reneges on his promises there will be no more naïve outlook about the system. The distrust will become even more entrenched and the ‘extremist’ message of this site and all the others like it will become more acceptable to the majority of whites. From their ranks will come the infrastructure for resistance to the kikes plans for our extermination."
