Another plane crash.

A small plane just crashed near downtown Austin.  It doesn't appear to have crashed into a building but on an access street off a busy highway which caught a 7 story building on fire.  So crazy!

Damn, my SIL and BIL live and work near downtown Austin. Do you have a link to info, by any chance?

We had one crash here a couple of weeks ago right next to a subdivision. A few yards the other way and it would have been on one of the houses. Craziness. Sadly, two people on the plane died.

ugh! so scary! hope there weren't too many casualties (or any for that matter).  

my DH is flying in and out of texas today for a meeting! I hate when he travels!

Hmmm. The building that was hit houses federal offices, including the FBI. I'm starting to wonder if perhaps this isn't just an accident.

oh christ, Elise! I didn't know that! I'm starting to wonder if it's really an "accident" too! how scary!

It's probably just an accident, but two small plane crashes in two days -- one of which crashes into a federal office building and the other one that takes out power to several high tech companies, including facebook -- seems worth questioning.

This is the third plane crash I've heard of in the past three days - there was one on Tuesday I think in NJ that killed five.

This is starting to sound scary.  There's speculation it was intentional and the pilot burned his own house down before taking off.
