Not just a plane crash, but a shootdown. (Edit: If you dig deep it may have not been a shootdown, but only later reported as a shootdown.) They must have really wanted to shut him up.
Yeah, I remember the first reports of the shoot down and all the VERY credible eyewitness accounts on the first day of coverage. ALL of those were pulled the next day. Got me thinking.
As an Air Force pilot and a trained accident investigator (my unit sent me to the formal AF Accident Investigator course as the unit Safety Officer), I just found the situation very very hinkey! Their explanation just never passed the smell test to me.
Later on, I got about 2-3 books on the subject, and am 100% convince that it WAS a Shoot Down. I don't believe that it was that Navy ship conducting drills. Way too many folks on board as witnesses.
I'm pretty sure that it was a missile from one of the couple (or both) smaller craft that scooted away very quickly and were never found.

I think you are thinking of TWA Flight 800. With the bogus center fuel tank explosion.
KLA 007 is alleged to have been shot down by the soviets. In truth, it made a landing and everyone was taken prisoner.
