An unnamed FBI agent was quoted in the Knoxville, Tennessee New-Sentinel
as saying that the FBI believes the plane was sabotaged by Colombian
gangsters seeking revenge for a bungled  cocaine smuggling run.  Officially,
the FBI has no comment on their investigation.  I personally don't consider
this report to be much better than a rumor.  Has anyone heard more?
