QUITO, Ecuador - Former President George Bush has suspended a trip to Ecuador because the jet he was going to board -- crashed today in Houston.
A conference organizer confirms Bush has canceled his trip because the plane that should have flown the ex-president from Houston -- went down.
Three crewmembers died in the accident during foggy weather.
The private jet clipped a light pole and crashed near Hobby Airport.
Nobody on board survived.
Federal Aviation Administration spokesman Roland Herwig says the Gulfstream flight originated at Dallas Love Field.
The plane's registered owner is Jet Place of Tulsa, Oklahoma.
The former U.S. president, who lives in Houston, was scheduled to take part in a business conference.

The private jet clipped a light pole and crashed near Hobby Airport. Pilot error? Their onboard equipment should have guided them in properly.

Curious....
Do you think that someone might be trying to intimidate the President?
Or... my tinfoil is on a little tight?

I'll see your tin foil and raise you a hat...
Far too much irony with all this. It wouldn't surprise me in the least to see Mexico/Chile/terrorism ties.
