I hpe so too but I’m fearful we will have some casualties,, when a plane disintegrates, debris goes flying all over.. this was not a good spot to crash if there is such a thing.

MSNBCCBSABC - all on the east coast. If it doesn’t happen by 6:00pm Eastern Time then it’s not news until the next evening east coast time. Then it’s not news cause it happened yesterday.
