Flight 800 Families Mark 15 Years Since Crash
Families and friends of the 230 people killed on TWA Flight 800 plan a quiet beach gathering to mark the anniversary. The crash off the East Moriches coast led to a 16 month federal inquiry and a major FBI investigation. Investigators ruled the cause a center fuel tank explosion sparked by a wiring short circuit, not a missile or bomb.
