Peter Haisenko, a German aviation expert made a claim yesterday that air-to-air fire brought down MH17.
The above link is to a translated page.
As a lay person, it’s easy to be persuaded by such arguments. Moreover, even if Haisenko is an aviation expert, one has to wonder about his munitions expertise.
I have some questions later, but first let’s take a look at some images and a translation of Haisenko’s thesis.
Haisenko provides this High-Res Image of MH17 Cockpit.

Haisenko Notes
- Cockpit shows traces of shelling, clean round hole, about 30 mm caliper.
- Some holes are bent inward, some outward
- Rivets bent outward
- Moreover, small cuts can be seen, all bent outward, which hint at the fact that fragments have penetrated the outer hull from the inside of the cockpit.
