Why is the reconstruction of TWA flight 800 wreckage housed at the NTSB Training Center?
The sheer size and completeness of this accident reconstruction is unique in the history of aircraft accident investigation. The 93-foot forward portion of TWA flight 800 aircraft’s fuselage is used as major instruction tool along with many other pieces of accident wreckage. Investigating the crash of TWA flight 800 was a major undertaking by the NTSB, other government agencies and industry in time, resources and taxpayer money.
