I was too young at the time to remember. There is actually a lifted documentary on YouTube on this flight

The crash happened about 100 miles or so from where I live. I was in Grade 10 when it happened.

This accident was the straw that broke the camels back that would finally require every airliner to have TCAS (traffic collision avoidance system) installed. There hasn't been a mid air accident of this magnitude since.

TCAS still does not prevent human error. There was the berlingen mid-air collision where TCAS worked properly but confusion with ATC caused pilots on one plane to disregard TCAS and do the opposite. And the Gol Transportes Areos Flight 1907 where the pilots on one plane didn't realize TCAS was not working and failed to correct the problem.
