Guidance Missile Off Course

This episode has many flaws, but Barnaby Jones still makes it enjoyable. A company is creating a missile guidance system & during a test, someone is killed & Barnaby is brought in to investigate. First problem is no way he'd be allowed to wander around the inner workings of a top secret program. Oh the plot has the run of the mill sabotage, extra marital affairs & co-workers conspiring against other co-workers. Yes you guessed it, all was done because of greed. Towards the end, the missile test in front of the military personnel had many flaws. No way onlookers would've been allowed to stand within 50' feet away while a missile was being fired. An obvious misfire resulting in an explosion would've killed everyone. Also Barnaby & Betty would not had been allowed to witness the test. Barnaby's cunning & intuitive problem solving skills with a hint of southern charm cracks the case without breaking a sweat.
