#15 Q.e.d. Alaska Paul..lol Looks like an ordinary suicide story with family drama, so it could be moved to Page 3. Apart from the fact that the Reichstag area is not a no fly zone which is rather puzzling. The Kanzleramt is next door. Don't think a light plane could have crashed on the White House lawn? |

#12 "Another witness said the plane was flying upside down and the pilot was trying to land." Is this some method of landing used in Germany? I'm not familiar with it. |

#10 You will never see the Muslims attacking Germany Germans love the muslims, always have always will and the muslims love Germany.This was not a terrorist attack, all the way back to WWII the Axis & Muslims were Allies and still today Turkey and Germany are close. This is why you will propably never see the German army deployed against the Muslims in Iraq or elsewhere. |

#9 CHUCK S. : In 1976 I went into a grocery store in Long Beach and actually ran into the late Mr Deutschendorf. He was filming "Oh God" with George Burns. He was dressed as the store manager, and I almost asked him where the cold soda pop was, because I didn't recognize him at first... BYW George Burns was there too. He was talking to one of the real-life butchers... |

#3 Babel Fish is your friend: Berlin - the crash occurred against 20.29 o'clock. The crash place lies on a meadow at the western side of the realm tag building, before the entrance to the realm tag dome, exactly between the seat of the Bundestag and the Office of the Federal Chancellor. After a first inspection of the crash place a background of terror seems rather improbable. With the airplane it concerns according to data of a Ermittlers locally a Ultraleichtsegler, which must be more or less perpendicularly broken open. Approximately around the aircraft the lawn is burned in a periphery of approximately five meters, otherwise one actually sees nothing, said the official MIRROR ON-LINE ONE. From the Segler, a kind sail kite with rotors behind the pilot seat, is as well as nothing more remaining. The police tries now to find eye-witnesses. On the basis the accident scene the Ermittler excluded that the pilot had explosive or something other explosive with itself. "so far we do not know yet, like it to the accident came or whether the pilot is intentionally supported", so the policeman. The police wants to communicate first determination results around 21.45 on a press conference. With the killed pilot it concerns according to data of the official a man. First remedial measures failed, since he obviously died immediately with the crash. Its identity or where it was broken open toward Berlin with the Segler, is so far still unclear. Looks like it was an Ultralight aircraft, crashed and burned, not much left. |
