"LGA closed. Aircraft incident.
Might be a Air Canada flight

Fire truck vs aircraft. You can hear the ELT going off in the ATC recordings for the Tower. Could be a major accident."

"looks like a FireTruck crossed runway 04 at LGA and collided with a Jazz CRJ-900"

"ATC screwed up"

BREAKING: The U.S. Department of Transportation announces it will reduce scheduled airspace capacity by 10% starting Friday morning if the government shutdown has not ended, citing "growing pressure" in the NAS as controllers and other personnel continue to go unpaid. Developing story.

Cristopher Cross hits #1 with “Arthur’s Theme (Best That You Can Do)” 44 years ago today.

As his flight was stuck in a holding pattern above JFK, songwriter Peter Allen pulled out his notebook and wrote the line: “When you get caught between the moon and New York City.”
