The aircraft seemed to 'make' a school field. Plus/minus 1 mile from the end of 06 and about 40 degrees to the right of centerline. It seems that the crew went for the field and if that's the case they did a FANTASTIC job putting the plane down where they did. Judging from the point of impact and skidmarks. We saw the crash site from the air and it was pretty much the only flat open ground in a built up area.

Wish all involved a speedy recovery.
