My post was not correct, it was based on earlier information however FAA states there were only 2 people on board. Sorry for the confusion.

I don't know about that, they might be wrong, if it's a child then at least the mother or family member would be with them, you're going to need a nurse or doctor and you have two pilots. We'll have to see how that pans out, they may be the ones apologizing for the mistake.

Post was deleted as the FAA X post said two, but link I posted above says 6, which is what I originally heard.

Sure seems like a catastrophic structure failure,wing snapped off etc.
I'm sure investigators will analyze debris field locations for evidence.
Walk that flightpath back during the day tomorrow.
Sure been a bad week for local area aviation :(

What's a SQURT? (I don't speak Phillyese)
Better question is what's a SNOZZLE?

From the videos of the actual explosion, number one the jet was speeding straight down at high speed, almost seems like two explosions, one after another, I'm going to guess that the natural gas source that was ignited was probably the second larger explosion, it's over six row houses now that burned, jet fuel spilled over Roosevelt Mall. Many cars on fire.

If no one else passed away on the ground that is a miracle as again on a Friday night that particular area of Northeast Philly is very very busy with restaurants, movie theater, the mall and rush hour traffic. If there are no other fatalities, that is a miracle.
