Inspired by @AviationJoe
On November 12, 2001, two months after the events of 9/11, an American Airlines Airbus A300, operating as Flight 587, was on an international passenger flight from JFK Airport in New York to the Dominican Republic, with 251 passengers, and a crew of 9. The A300 taxied to runway 31L behind a Japan Airlines Boeing 747-400, which had taken off minutes before it. The A300 took off at 9:14 AM bound for the Dominican Republic. Minutes after takeoff, however, the vertical stabilizer broke off, and the A300 began to fall and enter a flat spin. Both of the engines eventually separated as well, and the aircraft crashed into a residential area in queens, killing all 260 on board and 5 people on the ground. Because of the location of the crash, and the fact that it occurred two months and one day after 9/11, it brought back fears of another terrorist attack. However, it was later determined by the NTSB that the pilot was poorly trained and used the rudder too much, causing the stabilizer to break off. The crash of Flight 587 remains the second deadliest aviation accident in US History. R.I.P. to those 265 people who died.
