Aircraft hit NY building.

Of course the first thing that pops into your mind is that another attack is underway. Apparently its not the case. Just some rich sportsman with someone else in his plane. Read here.

Of course when you read the story it brings up lots of interesting questions. The guy was learning and his passenger was an instructor. For a start why was anyone learning to fly over a residential area? If there was a problem then where is the plane going to end up? Maybe the instructor was incapacitated and the learner lost control. It not quite the same as putting down some cones in a car park and driving along them.

In a way they were lucky it was only those two that were killed. I thought this whole flying over residential areas was banned after 911. After all it could easily have been crammed full of explosives.

There must be more to this story than just what is in the article.
