At least 48 people presumed dead...

CNN is reporting 50 dead. 49 on the plane, one on the ground.

My thoughts and prayers go out to the families of those lost.

Never been on one. Don't think I ever could be.

Pretty amazing that guy's youtube video is playing on CNN and MSNBC.

I like flying... have *always* been afraid of the possible "falling" part. At this point I agree with Bel... I'm done with flying for awhile.

My prayers go out to everyone involved... it's a tragedy ... no matter how ya look at it.

The crash happened 6 doors down from where one of my co-workers lives. It's just too close for comfort.

Two of the victims were members of Chuck Mangione's jazz band. There more information on the victims here: http://www.usatoday.com/news/nation/2009-02-13-victims_N.htm

My thoughts are with their family and friends.
