Plane crash into a house in Riverside, CA

Forgive me if someone else posted this, but I've been watching on TV late this afternoon.the aftermath of a small plane crashing into a house. 5 people on board, only a teenager survived, and they don't know about the people in the houses. I heard the guy who owns the house most damaged escaped out the back. How lucky he was! So sad. It was reported that the family in the plane had been to a cheer competition at Disneyland.

I saw a piece on this, on my local news mid-day today. Man, good thing they were gone. I guess the plane took out two houses. I haven't heard what must have caused it but I think it had just taken off from either LAX or a smaller S. CA airport. (not sure on which airport)

This is so sad. I was watching updates early morning, one who survived has something like 90% body burns.

I've always had a minor fear of planes crashing into houses, I must have heard about that happening when I was little.

I will never get into a Cessna although people that pilot them state they are completely safe. The problem in So Ca has always been there's just too many of them and they are competing for air space with the larger planes. I was living in San Diego when one collided with a 727 which brought down both into a residential area. Happened a long time ago but people on the ground were traumatized and never forgot it.
