Bob Barrow said:In 1996 TWA flight 800 (a 747) out of New York exploded with the loss of all on board. The accident investigation was the most expensive investigation in the history of aviation. The NTSB concluded that the most likely cause was a spark in a central fuel tank arising from a
capacitance type Fuel Quantity Indicator System (FQIS). Subsequent
research by other parties has suggested that four other airliners may
have previously suffered the same fate.
