It's a maintenance flight. Only two on board, a pilot and co-pilot. Not yet known if it's a crash or they had to ditch in the water.

Early reports said their were at least 21 on board. What is the latest source for 2 on board? (Note, I do not have access to TV - that is why I am asking).

Flight number may be incorrect.
Unknown how many souls onboard.
This is a small twin engine commuter flight. Reports indicate it was heading to Albany, NY and reported an emergency and was attempting to return to the airport.

This appears to be a classic example of how early news reports can be wildly incorrect. We've already got three VERY different reports on the number of people on board, at least two differing reports as to where it was heading to or from, and two different reasons it was in the air.
(Sidenote: These are the sorts of things on which conspiracy theorists like to base their looney tune ideas ... they cry out "Immediate news reports said X, but then you NEVER HEARD ABOUT THAT AGAIN!!" Yeah, because it turned out to be WRONG, nutbags.)

On FoxNews they have the split-screen with the President on one side and a rescue helicopter on the other. Personally, I'd much rather hear what GW has to say than hear some reporter blather on about how nothing is known about the plane crash yet.

AP still reporting 21 on board, operated by Colgan Air enroute to Albany.
