Continental Airlines Commuter aircraft crash

A Continental flight Dash 8 was minutes from Buffalo airport when it crashed into a house, killing all 44 passengers, four crew and one off-duty pilot on board, and one person on the ground.

The twin-prop Bombardier Dash 8 Q400 aircraft, operated by Colgan Air for Continental Airlines, was flying from Newark airport in New Jersey to Buffalo Niagara International Airport.

Our sympathies of the relatives of those who have lost a loved one.
