Summary
[edit]Description1960 NYC Mid-Air Collision (52317293763).jpg |
On December 16, 1960, a United Airlines DC-8 and a TWA Super Constellation collided over NYC, killing all 128 aboard the two aircraft and six people on the ground. The accident was the world's deadliest aviation disaster at the time. The TWA Constellation crashed on Miller Field in Staten Island. The United DC-8 crashed in Park Slope, Brooklyn, at the intersection of Seventh Avenue and Sterling Place. The apartment building at 126 Sterling Place was damaged. In the photo you can see where replacement bricks were used during repair. The destroyed cornice was not replaced, resulting in the plain roof line. |
