Title: Flight 255 RIP
Post by: Fud on August 12, 2012, 10:47:40 AM

August 16 2012 will mark the 25th anniversary of the crash of Flight 255 at DTW. 4 year old Cecelia Cichan was the sole survivor.

In memory of the victims, a black granite memorial, which was erected in 1994 - seven years after the tragic event, stands at the top of the hill surrounded by blue spruce trees at Middlebelt Road and Interstate 94, the site of the crash. The memorial has a dove with a ribbon in its beak saying "Their spirit still lives on..." and below it are the names of those who perished in the crash.
