I watched the video last night. The explosion is visible, but the aircraft
prior to impact is not visible, at least to my eyes. I watched it several
times.
What I was looking for was whether the aircraft was doing aerobatic manuvers
or not. The eyewitnesses said acrobatic, and the news geeks kept repeating
acrobatic. Mayor Bloomburg said it right, since he's a pilot.
First it was a helicopter or an airplane, then a cessna and finally a
Cirrus. The newsroom computers must not have a Fact-Checker along with the
Spell-Checker. At least they didn't say a four seat Piper Cub. I've heard
that before.

Apparently the Coast Guard has some sort of video camera running
that captured the impact of the Cirrus against the building.
CNN has posted it on their website under "Watch Video".
The video is of poor quality but you can definitely see the explosion upon
impact.
