    Upside down and 180 degree twist. Which seems about right ;)

    Yeah, but it's more fuel for the conspiracy theorists, they seem to be absent right now, probably composing evidence;)

    They just said the plane is registered to Cory Lidle, a yankees relief pitcher.

    Read that fox reported Lidle was flying the plane and doing tricks. Guess he lost control of the plane?

    Looks like he might have been flying himself:

    He got his licence in January:

    Wouldn't it be 90/11/01? I wish conspiracy theorists put more effort into their conspiracies.

    They're saying 4 people dead is confirmed.

    :) That's the thing about conspiracies, you have to twist facts to make the fit.

    flipping the numbers is probably the most rediculous thing i ever heard. people are always trying to prove something, no matter how much they have to change things.

    I like that plane. I like the SR-22 better, though.

    Of course, if I had the money it'd be a Pilatus PC-12.

    As it is I can only buy one with a rubber band engine.

    It has a built in parachute to bring the plane down safely, guess he never had time to deploy it.

    I prefer the F-16 myself to be honest. Bit deer on the old kerosene though.

    Not a lot. I walk to the office in 10 minutes.

    1. Get to the nearest air strip 30 minutes away
    2. Take off and land on the same air strip, since it's the nearest
    3. Drive to the office

    No thanks :)

    At this stage it's more like "Idiot!" - apparently airplanes aren't allowed anywhere near Manhattan - it's a heli-only zone. So WTF was he doing there in the first place?

    I've just recorded a few minutes from CNN with information about this event. Hope it helps people out there without TV :

    I'll post a longer version in a few minutes.
