POPSSmall Plane Crashes on Approach to Teterboro Airports; 2 Survivors Found at Bus Stop
Sanil Gopinath, 42, of Rockville, MD, was "banged up, but didn't appear to be that injured," Verdi said. Both men were taken to the burn unit at St. Barnabas Medical Center in Livingston, NJ. No one on the ground was injured. Bob Gretz, a National Transportation Safety Board investigator, said the plane struck a tree after the pilot decided for reasons still unknown to abort the landing. "According to Teterboro, the runway was checked - they did not find any debris on the runway," Gretz said. "We have not been able to talk to the pilots as they were seriously injured." The plane, which was delivering blood specimens to Quest Diagnostics, a lab near the airport, was discovered in two pieces. The tail and two rear wings split from the aircraft's body. Its nose was intact but badly burned. "It's scary," said Joanne DeVito, 38, who lives nearby. "The big planes come in so low you could wave at the pilot. It shakes everything in the house."
