If you’ve been following the news and saw that there was a plane crash in Leominster I just wanted to tell you that we’re okay, and that it crashed behind my neighborhood. As in we walked to the far end of my neighbor Amanda’s yard, and you could see the flames on the other side of the commuter rail tracks. I couldn’t see the plane, but could see the police line tape and the water coming out of the hoses. THAT is how close this was to my house.
Just got in from talking to the neighbors who live closest to the site and they all heard it (we were coming home from swim lessons and as we approached our neighborhood all I could see was billowing smoke. VERY disconcerting. )
If it was the plane I think it was, we hear it all the time, it’s a little commuter Jet (I’m not sure that was the plane, but they did say it was 6-passenger.) I tried to take pictures but I don’t think any came out. It’s drizzling freezing rain (the reason for the crash, I believe) and everything was on the far side of a little rise. If a photo came out, I’ll post it.
