If I recall correctly, the flight originated from Logan or JFK.

EgyptAir flight 990, from JFK to Cairo, crashed into the Atlantic Ocean off Massachusetts after the plane went into a dive so steep that the passengers would have experienced weightlessness. The co pilot's Islamic prayer was recorded by the cockpit voice recorder, and the flight data recorder recorded control positions and control inputs consistent with someone pushing the plane into a crash dive. Other articles said that the service crews may have used the wrong torque wrench on the elevator, which could cause the elevator to run away. I haven't found an NTSB report on it yet, so I can't say.
