The article stated an onlooker said the plane was too low, then turned 90 degrees and belly flopped into the house, I think he panicked , tried to turn, and stalled without the correct airspeed. Just my thought on this article. This article possibly could have been associated with a drone, but I don't think so now.

The News media on a whole are a bunch of IDIOTS they couldn't get anything correct if their ARshess depended on it. Most have no Idea of what they are reporting. This in most true when it comes to anything AVIATION. From every thing that fly's is either a JET or a Piper Cub to It was Sputtering when he "NOSED DIVED" in. Gime a F'n break ... Look at the DRONE crap they have no Idea what how or even that correct nomenclature is QUAD or HEX Rotter.
My favorite is the GA plane at 110 kts ran down and crashed into the airliner filled with (put a number here over 95) When it 99% the airliners fault. The flying public doesn't realize that the only tome that the ATC systems Gaeurentees separation of air craft is when both are on an active IFR flight Plan and are both in IFR conditions. Other wise it is SEE and BE SEEN and all ATC advisories of traffic are just that ADVISORY, they do not gauerenty separation. It is the responsibility of the flight crew to maintain their own separation.
