All new Fiery Crash Goodness

Plane crashes into Mont. building, kills pilot - AOL News

BILLINGS, Mont. (AP) - An airplane carrying mail crashed into a building early Friday in a fiery explosion, killing the pilot, officials said. No one on the ground was injured.

The twin-engine turboprop had just taken off from Billings Logan International Airport when it crashed into a construction materials building at 1:25 a.m., Federal Aviation Administration spokesman Mike Fergus said.

"I just watched the light come out of the sky," witness Mike Krause told The Billings Gazette. "To me it looked like the plane was upside down. And then it just came straight down into the lot."
