Anyone thought to run a geiger counter test in the vicinity of the crash yet?

The UN is about a mile and a half due south of the struck building, not across the East River.

It just eerily feels like 9/11/01.... Thankfully it has been an hour and no other incidents are reported. I got my news in the first few minutes on that day from Free Republic. So this brings back unpleasant memories. Hopefully it will turn out that this was just an accident but it certainly is too early to determine that.

I'm over 60. How many times do YOU remember a plane flying into a highrise in NYC??

The shepard Smith just said that if you see fighter planes in the air overhead, do not be concerned. Since I live next to Miramar, I only get concerned when there are NOT planes in the air.

Most likely a plane hit the 41st floor.
To: Jrabbit
If it's just an accident, why send up fighter jets?
It's a Republican conspiracy.

...Does anyone remember the small Cessna type plane that crashed into a building in Miami a couple years ago?...Wasn't that in Tampa?

That was Tampa, not Miami, IIRC.

What I heard them saying was there is no indication at this time that it's terrorism related, not the it definitely wasn't terror related. I think they mean by this that there was no indication from ATC that an aircraft has been hijacked or suddenly gone off course without explanation. That's a very highly restricted piece of airspace there and an unidentified aircraft would receive a LOT of attention, as would one that appeared to be off course or not following ATC orders.
I see water being put on the floor below the fire so the FD is up there working on it.
