Videos shows damaged houses from deadly Philly plane crash
Calvert Street resident Quincy Casby said he was jolted awake after the Learjet 55, which was carrying six people onboard, smashed into the ground near Cottman Avenue and Roosevelt Boulevard, killing everyone on the flight while sending hunks of flaming metal into the streets and people’s homes.
Thick plumes of black smoke rose in the near distance from a wall of flames, while flaming chunks of debris, scattered metal scraps and cars abandoned at intersections blanketed Cottman Avenue. The doomed flight, which was operated by Mexico-based Jet Rescue Air Ambulance, plummeted less than a minute after taking off at 6:06 p.m. from Northeast Philadelphia Airport for a stop at Springfield-Branson National Airport in Missouri, according to data on FlightRadar24.One Calvert Street resident rushed outside after hearing the sound of the crash and saw a neighbor’s home was on fire.
