Flight TWA 800



We decided to take a little trip to Smith Beach and check out the memorial that was built for those lost in flight TWA 800 right off the beach where we were standing. To the right are the flags of all the nationalities that were on the flight.








                  




It was really random but very cool. The memorial talks about the flight just taking off and heading for its course over the ocean to France when it exploded and fell to the water. It was the first plane accident where every single person on board was recovered from the wreckage. There were no survivors.
