It was a Cirrus 20 four-seater aircraft departed from Teterboro airport, and was flying "erratically" before the crash.

Two confirmed dead so far, probably the passengers on the plane. There may have been many other injuries, though, because of the debris.

Gov. Pataki has just said that it was not terror-related.

confirmed dead 4. One was actually still strapped into their seat.

There is an unconfirmed report that the plane was registered to Yankee pitcher Cory Lidle.

Flash: there is now another unconfirmed report that a Yankee team-member was on the plane.

[Breukelen advocaat]

ESPN, and AP, are now saying that Yankee Cory Lidle was on board the plane.

Debris from the crash was found as far away as the 59th Street Bridge.

I think it's safe to say this one wasn't a government conspiracy.

Don't be so naive Oneironaut. Of course it was a govt conspiracy. Small planes don't normally fly erratically. And why didn't the air force shoot it out of the sky? Someone must have told them not too. Think about it....

what a waste of news.... all the money the goverment spent for nothing.. i watched this on cnn they even scrambled fighter jets up over certain cities, all because some rich guy wanted to fly.. if i was in his shoes i would have chartered my own private plane. but fly...with little experiance that is just nuts.

It was one of the pitchers for the Yankees. I dont wanna sound like an asshole but maybe he was depressed that they lost to the Tigers and are out of the playoffs. Just a theory
