Do a rewrite on that plane crash line.
The plane that crashed on Staten Island NEVER planned to land at the former air base there.
That TWA plane's destination was La Guardia.
The United plane that crashed in Brooklyn was to go to Idlewild [later JFK].
Read the story, and rewrite.

The link for the Orange County story is incorrect--it goes to the Lincoln Center renovation story.

 

Try again.
One plane bound for LGA.
One plane bound for Idlewild [now JFK]
One plane crashed on Staten Island.
One plane crashed in Brooklyn.
Amazingly, one person survived, but only for hours and could talk. He is memorialized at Methodist Hospital in Brooklyn's Park Slope neighborhood.
Easy to Google.
You're off the board until you can fact-check.
