Wow... Word is EagleMed after an engine failure on takeoff.

Here's hoping for minimal amounts of injury.

It hit the NE corner of the north building. This building holds the Sov Mustang, and X sims along with Sov, X, Mustang, 500 series classes. The Caravan/CJs are in south building.

 

[Itchy]

The north building has two van sims too.
