Larry Posted October 11, 2006 Share Posted October 11, 2006 A small plane has crashed into a building in New York City. It happened on the Upper East Side of Manhattan island. TV pictures show flames coming out of the high-rise building. More to follow. http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/americas/6042306.stm Frightening pictures at the moment. Slovakia-Germany TV-coverage has been interrupted for a short moment because of that... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Black Rose Posted October 11, 2006 Share Posted October 11, 2006 It sounds like it was an accident. No doubt Gareth will come up with some theories saying it was planted by the US governement to keep the american race in a state of panic. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Marisa Posted October 11, 2006 Share Posted October 11, 2006 Yankees pitcher Corey Lidle in N.Y. plane crash; death toll lowered to 2 October 11, 2006 By COLLEEN LONG ASSOCIATED PRESS http://cmsimg.freep.com/apps/pbcsi.dll/bilde?Site=C4&Date=20061011&Category=NEWS99&ArtNo=61011027&Ref=AR&MaxW=233&Border=1 Smoke comes out of the Belaire high rise building at 524 E. 72nd St. after a small plane crashed into it on Manhattan's Upper East Side today. (Photo by Jennifer Helper/Getty Images (JENNIFER HELPER/AFP-Getty Images) A small plane with New York Yankees pitcher Cory Lidle aboard crashed into a 50-story condominium tower Wednesday on Manhattan’s Upper East Side, killing at least two people and raining flaming debris on sidewalks, authorities said. There was no immediate confirmation Lidle was among the dead. A law enforcement official in Washington, speaking on condition of anonymity, said Lidle was on the plane. And Federal Aviation Administration records showed the single-engine plane was registered to the athlete, who was a new pilot and had repeatedly assured reporters in recent days that flying was safe. The crash came just days after the Yankees’ humiliating elimination from the playoffs. The official said he did not know whether Lidle was at the controls; two people were aboard, and Lidle’s passport was found at the crash scene, the official said. The plane had issued a distress call before the crash, according to the official. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

berrywoman Posted October 13, 2006 Share Posted October 13, 2006 it was a hair rising day as it was.... obviously memories of the first time an 'accident' like this happened came rushin back... but it turned out to be a real accident. Makes you wonder about the 'security' we have in this place... huh. Nice. Some one was actually allowed to fly that low over one of the most targeted cities in the country, possibly the world!
