TRAGEDY IN CHICAGO ON THIS DAY IN 1979
One of the biggest stories in Chicago was the crash of American Airlines
Flight 191.
American Airlines Flight 191 from O’Hare International Airport in Chicago to
Los Angeles International Airport crashed moments after takeoff from the
airport. All 258 passengers and 13 crew on board the DC-10 were killed,
along with two people on the ground. Until the September 11 attacks, it was
the deadliest air disaster in the history of the United States.
