- President's_commission_on_aviation_security_and_terrorism abstract "Pan American Flight 103 blew up over Lockerbie, Scotland, on December 21, 1988. 243 passengers, 16 crew members, and 11 people on the ground were killed by the explosion. It was the second most disastrous passenger airline explosion up to that time By the next day, experts found enough evidence to declare the explosion to be deliberate sabotage. Within days intelligence sources reported an anonymous telephone call to the United States embassy in Helsinki, Finland, on December 5, 1988, warned of possible sabotage on the flight.Newly elected President George H. W. Bush met with victims’ families in April 1989. Relatives present asked for an independent investigation of airline security which, they claimed, should have prevented the disaster. Bush promised he would look into establishing just such a commission. Relatives also complained about the State Department’s poor consular services for assisting victims’ family members. This news seemed to shock the President.U.S. government personnel were belatedly reported to be deeply involved in the investigation. The Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) was working closely with its European counterparts The Department of Justice was conducting a criminal investigation, and the Federal Aviation Authority (FAA) was investigating its internal securities procedures.U.S. Congressional response to the disaster came when Senator Frank R. Lautenberg (D-NJ) introduced Senate Resolution S. Res. 86, calling on the President to appoint a special commission “to investigate the events surrounding the destruction of Pan Am 103” That same day, President Bush did so.".
