news is reporting a "small" plane crash in Clarence Center (suburb of Buffalo). Not much info yet, but its along the approach path for KBUF. At first they said "small" plane and now they're saying "small commercial" aircraft. You know how the news is, they're guessing.
 
Re: Plane Down in Buffalo

This is horrible news. Pray everyone is ok.

I was just at an AOPA safety seminar last night here in Melbourne and our speaker mentioned that there hadn't been an air carrier death caused by a crash in over 2 years in the USA.
 
Re: Plane Down in Buffalo

Can't rely on early reports, they first said there were 30+ on the plane and also heard there was only crew...first commercial crash at BUF ever (I believe). This is about 5 miles from my house :(
 
Re: Plane Down in Buffalo

Just got word from one of our Q colganites and it was no one here on JC.

Here's to hoping for the best for everyone involved.

That fire does not look good at all. Hopefully everyone makes it out with their lives.
