I want to share my thoughts today about the crash of TWA Flight 800. But before I do so, I wish to say to the family and friends and loved ones of the passengers and the crew who were aboard that ill-fated flight that our prayers here in the House, in the Senate and Congress are with all of you at this very difficult time. The tragic ending of over 230 passengers on this flight is a grim reminder of another flight, Mr. Speaker, Pan Am 103, which went down over Lockerbie, Scotland. It has yet to be established whether sabotage played a role in the crash of this flight.
