Weather looks good so it wasn't that.
To: michaelje
It was either coming out of JFK or Newark. Not sure. May have been trying to land. Details sketchy.
To: Attila_the_Hun
Fox News stated buildings on fire also, pictures from distance show crash site appears to be near water. Wouldn't pilot try to ditch in water if possible?

The Rockaways are basically a thin strip of land extending into water. Beach country. It's possible they were aiming for water.
It's also possible that there was another hijack situation in progress and there was nobody in the cockpit who COULD aim for water.
I look at today's date and I am just chilled. Wasn't the 12th a significant date for some reason?

Crash with smaller airplane Piloted by a peaceful Muslim?
To: Oldeconomybuyer
Tough to say what this is now. Could be a old fashioned airplane crash. Still, the type of plane is interesting. And, my paranoid self this morning was thinking that OBL didn't need nukes, he could just smuggle in some stingers and set them up on airport arrival and departure areas and bring down lots of planes. Lets see if any other planes go down.

WABC Radio is reporting that there was a small plane in the area and that the witnesses report that one engine was on fire or that the plane had actually lost an engine.
Remember the DC-10 in O'Hare about 20 years ago. It lost an engine and lost control because of the resulting wieght imbalance between the wings.

You're right it is a very populated area. Even moreso in the summer.
Breezy point - spent all my summers there as a kid.<P. Level 1 response - all hands needed.

"On approach...not the terrorist M.O....not maximum fuel for impact." At this point, if it is the work of terrorists, any killing of Americans would have an impact.
