News just said no flight plan was filed.

No flight plan is required for a VFR (visual flight rules) flight.

At least not yet.

[xsmommy]

but does not lessen the chances of taking human lives.

Foreclosure?

Tax lien?

[Guenevere]

Yes, the buildings were large w/ black glass (in appearance
..very modern and elegant)

Think of the tax angle...IRS could have been in the process of taking his house, perhaps??

People can be pretty unpredictable when someone tries to take their home. I'm a little surprised things like this aren't more common than they are.

Fox Local is reporting domestic dispute as catalyst.

Man set his own house on fire.

IRS is in building and is office for those having disputes with IRS. Not known if that has anything to do with this situation.

Name of home owner hadn’t been released.

[ReneeLynn]

I guess he gave up hoping for change.

[mom4melody]

Fine.

Let’s talk about Amy Bishop then.....

[shredderman]

I can just imagine the Hoo-Ha that would grip the small “Mom & Pop” airfields around the Country if this were to happen!

Next thing you know, I’ll have to have my R/C model airplanes searched before i fly them from my Club field. And that’s IF the Obamba administration lets us R/C modelers continue to fly.

Not only was he Amish, but he was a tea party member, too.

[null and void]

Now said to be a Cherokee 140:

[cripplecreek]

Watch the MSM say he was a Tea Party member.

Let em, it won't stop the tea parties.

[Elle Bee]

Your correct ...... Just injecting some black humor ... I'm happy to see there have been few injured

.

[WaterBoard]

Texas residents are complaining on Twitter that government released a statement that the crash was not ‘terrorism’ before the fire trucks even arrived on scene.

I don’t know if that is true, but if that time line is correct; there is seriously messed up.

[beckysueb]

Now now no need to start insulting us Appalichian-Americans.

[brytlea]

I didn’t know google map would do this, but I was able to ask it what was there and it gave a list of businesses, I assume they are all in that building.
