BUFFALO, N.Y. – Authorites say 49 people are dead after a commuter plane crashed into a home in suburban Buffalo and erupted in flames late Thursday.

State police spokeswoman Rebecca Gibbons confirmed early Friday the 48 deaths aboard Flight 3407, operated by Colgan Air.

Clarence emergency control director Dave Bissonet says the crash also killed one person on the ground.

The Q400 Bombardier aircraft was flying late Thursday from Newark Liberty International Airport in New Jersey to Buffalo Niagara International Airport in light snow, fog and 17 mph winds. It crashed around 10:10 p.m., about 10 miles from the airport. It had 44 passengers and a crew of four.

Dallas-based Continental Airlines Inc. says Manassas, Va.-based Colgan Air is "in the process of collecting information." The Federal Aviation Administration has no immediate comment.


This is so bad and its more daunting because the fact of which state it crashed in. What is going on with pilots these days?

That would be most unfortunate to be the one person on the ground killed by it.
Never attribute to malice that which can be adequately explained by stupidity.

The daughter of Capt. Sullenberger actually goes to my school. You do know that that plane crash was not the pilot's fault, right? I doubt anything is going on with "pilots these days." It was the scourge birds.

Only a very very small percentage of commercial aviation accidents are due to pilot error. It's almost always caused by mechanical malfunction, usually due to crappy maintenance.

families and friends of the 3 pilots, 1 non-rever of Colgan, and 45 passengers all have my prayers.

most of the planes that do crash, are not corporate airliners, nor do they crash in highly populated areas, and they crash safely. I.E. safe landings not making it on the landing strip, or single engine planes, private jets, etc...

Planes always crash.

Cars always crash.

No surprises.

Condolences to the passengers and crew.

Unfortunate, but planes are still by far the safest form of travel.

Worst timing for the plane crash. Now all that joy about "amazing pilots" just disappears. Prayers to the families.

It killed one person on the ground, which brings it up to 49.
