Small Plane Crashes into Federal Building--Miami

MIAMI - A small plane crashed into the Federal Reserve Bank Building and one body was recovered from the wreckage Thursday night, the branch manager said.

I hope it's not related to those Al Qaeda end of Ramadan threats.

Seems to be quite a hobby these days. Maybe we could rent these guys something big and old - need the money up front of course...

If this proves to be a suicide mission, then rather suicide missions where only the sucidee gets killed, and not innocent people.

Makes one think of the movie by Monty Python, The quest for the Wholy Grail, with the suicide squad killing them selves right after they proclaimed to be a suicide squad!

Seriously, if the same was done and the plane carried explosives of some kind, it could have been a different scenario.

update

app a small homebuilt exp plane that got into difficulty after takeoff - being blamed on vortex turbulence from other a/c.

clipped the building - maybe trying a FL somewhere clear

pilot killed sadly

not regarded ATT as terrorist acty or othewise
