4 Dead in Plane Crash!

So I'm at the Y this afternoon riding the bike, and a huge explosion happens outside! I thought it was a storage shed, but just found out out was a small plane crash! Nashville.
Pray for the families of the deceased and please offer thanks for sparing all the children that were in the pool building it crashed next to.
Thanks.

Are medium planes safer?

Just looking through social media sites like FB i notice a lot of people whom I would not trust driving a car has a pilots license.

I've thought of this before, MrBlue105, and agree "f that"

Gulfstream 690c
The pilot saved my life and the lives of another 100+. Apparently he turned to miss the neighborhood, the retirement residence, and the Y, and hit the only open piece of land head on. It's not such a small plane with two engines!

Live in Temple Hills, was at Publix around 3. Crazy, watched the Fairmount house burn down last week, and a plane crashes just outside the neighborhood this week.

Edit: yeah that pilot was a hero. That is a small area he hit. There used to be a landing strip behind Cameron Drive in Pasquo neighborhood. Wonder if he tried to hit that, if its still there.

Flight path is strange on this one. Looks like he attempted to land and then circled back?

Also they fell from 2,400 feet...so likely didn't have time to avoid anything. Just fell from the sky.

Other than all the people that pilot saved by hitting that very small patch of dirt, 4 people on the plane. All perished.
