That fact that it is extremely rare probably does not make anyone
involved feel any better about it.
There were four souls lost in the collision between a 152 and a 172.
AP and CNN say one of them was in a car in the ground and the rest on
board the planes. UPI says two of the victims were on the ground. I
suppose it will take some time to straighten out what happened.
And, true to form, the ABC station's live-on-the-scene bimbo noted
that they had been unable to determine yet if either plane had filed a
flight plan with the Corona airport. Good grief.
I stopped paying any attention whatsoever to that stuff years ago lest I
drive myself to apoplexy over it.
It's gaurunteed, every time.

I see what you mean. Excite (AP) has "raining debris and bodies down on
car dealership parking lots" and "investigators had not yet obtained a
flight plan."
You can just feel the sensitivity, can't you?
