NEW YORK - A small plane carrying New York Yankee Cory Lidle slammed into a 50-story skyscraper Wednesday, apparently killing the pitcher and a second person in a crash that rained flaming debris onto the sidewalks and briefly raised fears of another terrorist attack.
A law enforcement official in Washington said Lidle - an avid pilot who got his flying license during last year's offseason - was aboard the single-engine aircraft when it crashed into the 30th and 31st floors of the high-rise on Manhattan's Upper East Side. Mayor Michael Bloomberg said both people aboard were killed.
It was not clear who was at the controls. But the Washington official, who spoke on condition of anonymity, said Lidle's passport was found at the scene. |

An update Cory Lidle has been confirmed dead, and the 2nd person dead was his flight instructor that flew down to help Cory fly the plane home, or something like that.
Anyway, apparently he was flying a bit low and was blown into the side of the apartment building. They are awaiting tests to see who was flying the plane, if Cory Lidle was flying his wife is not entitled to any insurance money.
If it was the other guy she will get the money.
