Close Call
A private jet that was en route to Houston to pick up former President Bush clipped a light pole and crashed Monday as it approached Hobby Airport in thick fog, killing all three people aboard.
The Gulfstream G-1159A jet, coming into Houston, went down about 6:15 a.m. in an undeveloped area 1 1/2 miles south of the airport, officials said. The former president had been scheduled to travel to Ecuador for a conference.
“I was deeply saddened to learn of the plane crash this morning,� Bush said through spokesman Tom Freschette. “I’d flown with this group before and know them well. I join in sending heartfelt condolences to each and every member of their families.�
The names of the three crew members were not immediately released.

We almost lost our President Bush 41 yesterday. I am begining to believe in Divine Intervention! God Bless those brave Souls that were on that plane.
Yahoo News, and Pardon My English have this one.
