After visiting Peggy’s Cove we drove over to the memorial site for Swissair Flight 111. This aircraft took off from John F. Kennedy Airport in New York City to Cointrin International Airport in Geneva. Unfortunately the flight would never make the trip and all 229 lives on board would be lost. There was a fire on board which caused the crash. The plane crashed in the Atlantic Ocean just southwest of Halifax International Airport. It was roughly equal distance offshore from Peggy’s Cove and Bayswater. The memorial is a peaceful place of remembrance.
