Looks like they announced use of the -8 just about one year ago. [http://www.reuters.com/article/pressRelease/idUS178291+04-Feb-2008+PRN20080204](http://www.reuters.com/article/pressRelease/idUS178291+04-Feb-2008+PRN20080204) ---

posted on UNYCGP > Wow guys, I just went through the woods, and go up to the back yard before I got to the police blockade. That plane went into the ground at like a 35\* angle. I got there around 11:45ish and the persons van, something in front yard, and the house were still on fire. They are now just trying to contain the fire, and let whatever is on fire, burn down. Not much else to say though, something SERIOUSLY went wrong though, for a plane to go into the ground at that angle. I am definitely going to drive by there tomorrow and see if I can see the crater in the ground form that plane. I have heard from some of my buddies, that live nearby, that the crater is huge. They also just said on the news that a person walking his dog nearby, heard the engines cut out while it was still in the sky. I’ll try and keep an update. ---

Creepy. No response from 3407 then they said to call police in Clarance because the plane was gone. Then another plane said they were picking up ice for a while. Then other planes were talking about ice conditions. “Did you here from Cogan?” “No unfortunately they said he went down over marker…” ---

wtf, are we now supposed to question cutbacks in airlines as well. Less people looking over these planes making sure they are safe? I see bad things in the future that are obvious. ---
