Flight 5481 Midwest (?) Airways. A Beech 1900 (or so MSNBC is reporting as it breaks)

Duh. Back to Geography class.

Would seem MSNBC has it wrong again. I believe it happened in NORTH Carolina.

[mikegi]

They said the plane was a Beech 1900 with 19 persons on board. Doesn't look like any survivors.

God help those ppl

[TankerKC]

no...that was my mistake. Typing too quickly.

[TankerKC]

Can you change the goof on my title? NC vs SC.

[leadpenny]

The Feds have to suspect terrorism until they know differently.

[Dog Gone]

Sorry to hear this.

[TankerKC]

They should leave all options open.

[TankerKC]

As with most breaking stories, the details are changing. Now they say the aircraft was headed to Lynchburg VA.

I would really appreciate any updates to this story. My parents were flying out of Charlotte this morning at 8:00 eastern and I can't get in touch with them.
