Pilots believed to have ejected. Nothing yet about anyone in the building.

that's right near where my wife's aunt and uncle live. I just checked though, it's not their building. still I'm worried about their place.

I doubt the crash site is more than a mile from their condo

Yes I hope everyone's OK too. Near misses can freak people out.

We had a small plane go down in a field less than a kilometer from our house, killing 2 on board. This only fueled my wife's belief that one is going to drop on our house any day now... doesn't help that we live only about 5 km from the airport. She's convinced the damn things don't belong in the air to start with...

Id be more worried living only 5 Km form an airport that I would get splattered with blue ice toilet bombs!
