Interesting that AP left out the 1979 Memorial Day weekend crash of a DC-10 taking off from Chicago O'Hare in which the engine fell off.

250 people were killed.

The one in Detroit which crashed off the runway across the expressway was also really nasty. Sorry I don't recall the details - Dan, can you fill in the blanks?
