Do you believe John Denver's plane "ran out of gas"?

How do they know what? They do know it. They know that there is no reason to suspect it at this point. What's wrong with that?

Have they resorted to eating each other yet?

FoxNews: FBI's Joint Terrorism Task Force is being assigned to the scene, although there is no indication of terrorism.

The per-hour accident rate of helicopters is a heck of a lot higher than the rate for all fixed-wing aircraft.

Likely a combo of being harder to fly, and attempting to do more difficult things.

The soot in your image indicates a healthy fuel load went up on impact. It will take some time, but that apartment building is going to get very hot. Steel melting hot, maybe.

What's around there?

Any sign of nearby evacs?

Better safe than sorry.

Or perhaps both an airplane and a helicopter?

standard terror ops say, let the first one hit, let police and fire show up, then hit again to take them out...in the absence of a second hit in this immediate area, I think it's either A) a horrific accident or B) some sick bas*ard going after an ex or some other person they may be upset with..

I sincerely doubt it was terror..

Now they are saying a fixed wing plane.

The FBI is saying a terror task force is going to NYC but they say it is not a terrorist attack.
