:( I really wonder what happened now. SR-20's have an airframe parachute that is a big aid in a lot of emergency situations.

Altitude probably too low for the paracute to do much good imo.

You don't just fly into a building "by accident" in good visibility. This was intentional.

NORAD has dispatched fighter craft over several U.S. cities but Homeland Security has no intelligence.

first, exiting the playoffs, then crashing your plane into a highrise, coincidence? I think not...

Nope, they report him perishing in the crash.

Same thing. There were two bodies recovered on the ground and they weren't reported to be pedestrians. The plane wreckage fell to the ground and the people inside fell out.

He died because he played for the Yankees. If he was never traded to the Yanks, he wouldn't have crashed!

You guys have to be the most horrid, insensitive bunch of people I know. To sit here and joke about something like this is wrong.......wow, now I know what section of the forums to stay out of.

And no I am NOT a Yankees fan.
