Colgan 3407 Down in Buffalo

[Flying the Line]

Have some respect. This is not the time to bash the media, or anyone else. Many lives will be disrupted because of this.

MSNBC is running it now.

Everyone on board perished, plus one on the ground. God be with them all.

CNN keeps saying its a 50 pax Regional Jet?

Whatever it is this is sad, very sad.

CNN says FAA confirms that 48 SOB. People who were not onboard the aircraft were taken to local hospitals.

So is it a jet or a q400?

Outside of Miles O'Brien, the news media always screw up the details on aviation related news. That said...what the hell does it matter right now?* The details will be corrected eventually.

Members of our "extended family", so to speak, just lost their lives tonight not two and a half hours ago...would it be so hard for the membership of FI to stop the cynical bashing for a few minutes and focus our thoughts on them and their loved ones?
