After leaving JFK, crashed in the Atlantic Ocean near St. Margaret's Bay, Nova Scotia. All 229 people aboard died. Probable cause: On on-board fire spread out of control due to flammable materials. The crew signified at 1:24:28 UT that they had to switch to manual flying (they'd had to power off the autopilot). Their final transmission was a declaration of emergency at 1:24:38 UT (10:24:28 PM ADT). The flight data recorder stopped working about a minute later, at 10:25:40 PM. The transponder came back on line and worked until 10:26:04 PM. At 10:31:18 they struck the ocean at 345 mph and disintegrated from the impact.

At the time of impact and disintegration, Neptune was exactly on MC and Saturn exactly on EP. Moon was less than a degree into Capricorn.
