That fact that it is extremely rare probably does not make anyone

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.
