20 years in aerospace including a lot of weapons testing, that looks like a damn missile.

Lots of videos on X, that’s not an airplane. Very high speed, no lights, on a stable trajectory. It only appears within a few seconds of impact.

They have been giving details of the plane and passengers on board. Apparently a medical transport.

Yeah and Epstein killed himself….

If that’s a plane they were on a kamikaze mission to have that much airspeed and fly that directly to a target a mere 30 seconds after takeoff.

That area is full of what Philly folks call row homes- duplexes and triplexs. There are probably casualties on the ground.
I'm not a conspiracy freak, but the last two days have been very hard.

Reminds me a bit of the Queens NY crash right after 9-11.

Not a good time.

Airspeed limit is 250 kts under 10,000 ft. That’s way more than 250 kts at impact. Here’s a video of a parking lot with zero debris except for a nicely preserved section of fuselage that’s clearly marked.

Or an exploding tire/oxygen bottle in the pax compartment.

Something went very very wrong. But please, lets not set the crazies loose just yet.

Heartbroken for the crew and family.

The problem is that we've learned to not trust anything the legacy media or officialdom says.

This has been quite the surreal event over here in Philly. I'm only a few miles north of the crash site.

That's always what they've been.

You make a legitimate observation... unless.... on take off they flamed one pp then while pushing the remaining pp up stalled it under power... bet it exceeds the under 10k speed while pointed down under climb power....

No conspiracies.... just another sad accident...

The medical aircraft had four crew , a female patient and her mother on board . RIP to all . Seems like a massive mechanical failure shortly after takeoff . Very sad 😔

Max takeoff weight of a Lear 55 is 21,500 lbs, base empty weight is 13,000 lbs, and air ambulances have a lot of equipment on board, so I doubt they had more than 6,000 lbs of fuel. Likely why they were filed for Branson when their final destination was Tijuana. 1,600 ft just after takeoff, under 250 kts, 6,000 lbs of fuel - I don’t see how that equates to the videos we are seeing of the impact and the large crater left behind in a paved street. I just can’t wrap my head around it.

Think you're on to something. The second video in the chain linked above has audio, and you can pretty clearly hear full power on at least one engine.
Elevator failure?
Parts scattered everywhere, hopefully they'll find the fdr.

I can see how these videos would lead some to think it looks like a missile. The 2nd one clearly (to my eye) shows an explosion or whatever else would cause a trailing flame like you see.
