Default Plane crashes @ KPBI

News reports are that a twin engine Piper aircraft crashed on takeoff from PBI. Four souls onboard. Airport Fire Rescue is at the scene. Plane registered to a flight school in Melbourne. That could mean FIT. I fear the worst.

Sad to report three perished.

One in critical condition.

Tragic, how fate selects us whenever it wants. What school was it?
