One of our favorite places to camp is Smith's Point Park in Suffolk County, NY. I have seen the Flight 800 Memorial dozens of times but never realized what a work of art it is until I got the chance to video it with the Anafi. It's a beautiful structure commemorating a tragic event. The flags surrounding the memorial represent the countries from which the 230 souls on board were from. They died when the vapors from a fuel tank were ignited by wiring running through the tank. The resulting explosion cause the forward cockpit and passenger compartment to separate and the plane broke up in flight. I remember it very well because I was at home recovering from coronary bypass surgery.
