A family of five from Scarsdale and a Columbia University student were killed Sunday when a small plane crashed in Costa Rica, leaving at least 10 American tourists and two pilots dead.
No one survived when the single-engine Cessna smashed into a mountainous region in the Guancaste province while en route to the capital city of San José, officials said. The victims included New Yorkers Bruce and Irene Steinberg and their sons, Matthew, 13, William, 18, and Zachary, 19.
“Their children would have changed the world,” family friend Robin Shainberg told The Post. Source
Delta passengers confused as thick fog rolls through cabin for 30 minutes on Florida tarmac
Passengers on-board a Delta flight in Jacksonville were puzzled when the cabin suddenly became engulfed in thick fog.
Cell phone video captured the tense moments on-board the flight, bound from Jacksonville to New York City on August 11th. The smoke began filling the cabin as the plane sat on the tarmac, prior to takeoff. Crew members failed to notify anxious passengers of where the fog was coming from, which lasted for thirty minutes. One passenger stated that crew members even poked fun of the situation calling it a practice for their "Halloween Haunted House. Delta Airlines says that during humid conditions it's common for fog to fill the cabin due to condensation.
Despite the event, the flight made it safely to its destination to New York's John F. Kennedy airport Source
