An 8 seat twin engine chopper. The helicopter model has been in production for decades and is used in both military and civilian applications. The helicopter that crashed was built in 2000, and was equipped with two Pratt & Whitney engines, according to records. And it's base was Linden, New Jersey as noted in the prior article.

Who else was on that plane? Where were they going, where are they know. These questions have not been answered. A report says the pilot dropped off one passenger at the 34th Street heliport, then continued on by himself and the chopper crashed.

CITIBANK - heavily invested in by the Saudis.

Wilkie Farr and Gallagher was the firm former NY Governor Mario Cuomo went to when he left the Governor's office. Our current Governor is Mario's son, Andrew.

Spooky. There are at least 4 possibilities I can think of, but we must remember accidents do happen and everything is NOT a conspiracy. If this was a who dunnit mystery show, we could hypothesize,

1. Was someone out to get the Executive and tinkered with his plane, hoping to make it crash?
2. Was the pilot having financial problems and wanted to just end his own life and make it look accidental?
3. Was the pilot in the clutches of someone else doing a dry run for a terror attack on NYC? We know cargo planes fly below the radar literally and there are groups who would love to put another plane in a building.
4. Were there those who hate France, Germany and Belgium involved in sabatoging the plane unbeknownst to anyone? Were they threatening or blackmailing the pilot to make him crash it due to the tenant(s) in the building?
5. Was the Executive a Republican or Democrat? Did someone want him out of the way, but the plane did not have trouble soon enough, so he got to his destination and just the pilot went down. What are his business dealings if the FAA find something amiss.

It comes down to WHY did the plane have trouble, and was it sabotaged. The FAA will find out, but the public may not know the truth, if it crashed due to deliberate dirty deeds.

My impression is that the plane just had trouble, the pilot tried to land it as best he could and he died an unfortunate death. We should respect his privacy for his family at this time.
