Plane Into Building In NYC
Small plane, according to the FAA. Very foggy day there. Hit a residentia building on the Upper East Side. Apparently there's a landing strip very close to that spot on an island in the East River. NORAD saying it's not something "they were concerned about."
Hopefully nobody's hurt. Let the overhyping by the media and the conservosphere begin.
UPDATE: Cory Lidle said to be the pilot. Major tragedy. Incidentally, my sister lives six blocks from the site of the accident. She's fine, she was at work at the time. There will probably be a smoky smell around their for the next couple of days.
It also concerns me because I live about 2 miles from the Santa Monica Airport. These small planes are seen as new toys by rich people, and they're quite dangerous. Apparently Lidle was only a pilot for less than a year. The margin for error is so low.
In addition, the airspace in New York City seemed to be awfully open. I'd say that should be a concern for Homeland Security instead of petting zoos in Indiana.
