It's not clear when the photographs were taken or how much tampering by the rebels took place. Are you really that desperate to find something "fishy?"
Now that's some BS. Various pics have been made of this panel and it circulated the internet for the past year. Now in the reconstruction, suddenly the hole is filled, and the piece is still attached to the rest of the panel.
This has nothing to do with supposed tampering of the rebels, or you are suggesting that the rebels sneaked into Gilze-Rijen airbase with that missing piece, put it in the place of the hole and somehow fused it together......
I am not even saying it means anything in the big picture, but one can't deny that this is a bit strange and unexplainable.

Actually, he's right.
Ok, then the Dutch report is wrong.
Did you see the presentation or read the part of the report dealing with the position of the missile?

Actually, he's right. BUK typically attacks from above and behind to thwart evasion. That explains the holes in the cabin floor and the relative intact left lower belly of the aircraft as presented on stage.
Would also point backward along the flight path, back into Ukraine. Not forward into "separatists" territory.
Typical of aircraft reconstruction there is a wire frame behind the piece holding it in place. Not sure what you believe is happening here. To reconstruct the airplane they use a wire frame and place the pieces they have on it.

Name-calling as last resort, of course.
Nist-coverup comes to mind when I hear of intransparency regarding this new official report. It's already fishy as hell, no need for more evidence to suspect a conspiracy.

Why do you feel the need to summon all types of BS when I am only discussing an obvious visual issue, confirmed by others in this thread.
Almost seems like there is something to it.

It's only name calling if you are ashamed of supporting Putin and what he is doing. Well?

It's only fishy because it does not reach the conclusion you want it to.
So far, a lot of this thread consists of members misrepresenting what other members supposedly think, rather than stating their own observations and opinions about the actual report.
In the months before the crash, at least 16 military airplanes and helicopters were shot down in the eastern part of Ukraine.
