Default RE: Small aircraft owned by Yankee pitcher crashes into NYC high-rise building

True it only turned out to be 2. However, I know I heard them say there was a distress call. It sounds like they had an engine failure or something. When the engine goes out, it can sometimes knock out the electrical system and it is very, very, very hard to fly without equipment. Without an engine, wind can take control of the plane which could have lead it towards the building. You're right that it will all be speculation about what went wrong.
