Small plane crashes into building in New York

[Juan Albion]

Small plane, and sounds like an accident, but too many memories. . .

 

[Juan Albion]

May have been a helicopter. Hit a Manhattan highrise.

"Many apartments engulfed in flames."

 

[Del Boy]

links anywhere?

 

[Bozza]

Watching it on BBC News 24 now.

Looks like a few appartments on fire - not that many. Must have been very small aircraft.

 

[Starry]

Looks like just one building on fire on teh TV.

 

[Juan Albion]

Yes, they said 'many apartments' but it doesn't look like it. But it is burning well and surely must spread.

Holy Shit

 

[Juan Albion]

I just hope it wasn't a selfish suicide.

 

[Juan Albion]

"Fuel spill, fire also on ground"

I would imagine they will be able to tackle that quite quickly.

What's that got to do with anything?

What's that got to do with anything?

Nothing, I'm sure, but I'm waiting for the conspiracy theorists to make something of it.

 

[Basil Fawlty]

This looks bad.

 

[Safeway]

It was a helicopter. FBI says there's no indication of any terrorist involvement.

Sure it's just a tragic accident.

2 Dead, several trapped.

"A Fixed Wing Plane" say Sky News

 

[Juan Albion]

Not a helicopter.
