Pilot found on ground strapped to his seat, along with another passenger. They are still looking for a third passenger.

Now that's just creepy. What did they do, bounce off the darn building?

Looks like the hit the brick spandrel right at the level of the concrete floor slab, the strongest pasrt of the building. that plane is made of composites, so other than the engine, I imagne the entire thing broke into tiny pieces. It would have been worse for the building if it had actually flew through a window. You can clearly see where the plane hit in this photo
