doctor box, there were many failed attempts to fix my teeth. i retouched all my wedding photos, and it was even affecting my health. i trusted you because you specialize in dental implants. you created a permanent solution and customized my teeth so it still felt like me. my new teeth have improved my life and changed my future. - thank you. - you're so welcome. get the smile you want from the number one provider of fixed full arch dental implants in the u.s. schedule a free consultation. she started shaking and like

little debris and stuff was flying over there. so i tried to like, you know, keep the doors shut and not let customers out until the debris was gone. so nobody got hurt or anything. once that once i seen the big ball of fire, i came outside. i walked straight down there, started seeing a bunch of, like, plane pieces and. >> tragedy striking in the heart of philadelphia. a medical jet carrying a young girl who had just received life saving treatment, crashing into a densely populated neighborhood. at this time, we know that six people were on board that aircraft. it is not clear yet if anyone on the ground did perish. welcome in everybody. i'm kevin corke here in washington, where it is 1:00 in the morning. >> and i'm jonathan hunt, live in los angeles. it's 10 p.m. here. the plane struck homes and vehicles on the ground. smoldering debris could also be seen over a large area. the pennsylvania governor spoke about the tragedy within hours

of it happening here. he is. >> as the mayor always says, one philly. we are unified in our approach to deal with this emergency. and on behalf of 13 million pennsylvanians, we are all here for northeast philly tonight in this very, very difficult moment. >> tough night for a very great city. we go live to fox news correspondent cb cotton. she joins us from philadelphia. by the way i think jonathan mentioned it earlier. thank you for the hustle to get there to bring us this story tonight cb. >> well, i appreciate that, kevin. i wish i had better news to report. this is just these are horrific circumstances and this is going to be so gut wrenching for everyone involved. i'm told by a senior firefighting official that when first responders got on scene, there was at least one person still alive on fire. but i'm told that person later died on scene. and that just really paints such a gruesome picture that our brave men and women had to respond to this evening.

so we know a total of six people were on that medical plane that crashed. i'm told there were a total of four crew members and a young girl and her mother. that young girl had been receiving life saving treatment at shriners children's hospital here in philadelphia. we were we were told that medical plane was heading back to mexico, and all the people on board were from mexico. so this crash happened during rush hour traffic. and i want our viewers to take a look at this because the impacts are far reaching. this is a piece of debris that flew through a diner window hitting a customer. a diner employee tells me the customer was bleeding, but thankfully okay, and had to be taken to the hospital for a small treatment. and of course, we know the images of the crash are just horrific. so just after 6 p.m. today, the plane was captured erupting into a huge fireball near cottman avenue and roosevelt boulevard. here in philly, we know several homes

caught fire, and thankfully firefighters were able to get the people out of those homes and the fires are now under control. so now the investigation gets underway into how this happened. we know members of the ntsb are here on the ground. we've got a slew of state troopers, along with members of the state department of transportation. and, of course, we're going to be out here throughout the night to monitor the scene and see what happens. i've talked to a couple of witnesses here. one man describing the crash. he said it felt like an earthquake. kevin. >> yeah. incredible pictures. and i'm glad you mentioned the fact that there are some structures also on fire. sort of reminded me of the move bombing from all the way back in 1985. again, row houses, tightly packed community. scary times there in philadelphia. cb thank you so much for that. let's head over to jonathan hunt. >> kevin, a huge local, state and federal response to the crash. as you would imagine.

job one saving lives. but already, of course, an investigation into how it happened is underway. for more on the government response, we turn now to fox news channel's chanley painter. hello, charlie. >> hey, jonathan. yeah, we are seeing a massive and unified, multi-layered government response to this tragedy. many agencies immediately on the ground, working the scene, offering resources from local authorities and officials to state agencies, including at least 45 state troopers, members of the pennsylvania department of transportation, the pennsylvania emergency management authority, and the department of environmental protection. two elected state officials, including the governor, as well as federal agencies. at least four members of the faa have been dispatched. the ffa is posting these details about the crash, saying it, it and the ntsb are both investigating and, quote, the ntsb will lead the investigation and will provide all updates. the ntsb making

clear they have one person on the ground now and additional team members arriving later this morning. on saturday, in a press conference, the philadelphia mayor and pennsylvania governor expressed gratitude for a unified response. >> watch this. every time when we needed to affirm what the one philly philosophy means, the time is now, and i'm very proud about how our federal, state, and all of our local partners are working hard to deal with this tragedy. >> what you're seeing here is a unified response to an awful aviation disaster. for as awful as that aviation disaster was tonight, we also saw the best of philly. we saw neighbor helping neighbor. we saw pennsylvanians looking out for one another. >> president trump and his administration leaders have been in communication with local and state officials, offering support, including the new secretary of

transportation, sean duffy. facing his second tragedy in just his third day on the job, president trump took to truth social with this quote. so sad to see the plane go down in philadelphia, pennsylvania. more innocent souls lost. our people are totally engaged. first responders are already being given credit for doing a great job. more to follow. god bless you all. and vice president jd vance, echoing the very same sentiments on a social media post as well. jonathan, back to you. >> chanley. thank you so much, kevin. >> thank you. jonathan. armin carrion joins us now. he's a retired u.s. navy captain and a navy pilot of 28 years. again, we have this conversation, my friend, where we're trying to unpack a devastating circumstance. but there are a number of factors that i think you and i can discuss among them, weather and it possible loss of control, especially given how far off course they seem to have been. armin.

>> absolutely, kevin. good evening. yet here we are again. this accident happened about 15 miles away from the airport, i might add. it was just a couple of miles away from a naval support activity where i used to work when i retired out of the navy. when you look at an accident like this, one factor hits another, hits another. it's a domino effect. and eventually you have this thing called the swiss cheese effect, where all the holes line up, all the faults happen all at the wrong time to cause an incident like this. let's say, for example, they lost electrical power in the aircraft. well, if it was a clear and sunny day, it wouldn't be necessarily a problem. they could probably self control and come back and return. but dark. maybe you lose an instrument and now you're not sure what's going on. and perhaps now you have an incident where you're you're controlling the aircraft. we've heard issues about trim runaway. we've heard issues about possible spatial disorientation. the net effect is what we saw as an aircraft, which appeared to be on fire as

it came plummeting straight down into the into the ground. so, you know, something else that we haven't even thought about, you know, is it a bird impact? did it did it suck a bunch of birds into the engine which caused the impact to actually happen? we just don't know at this time. hopefully that black box survived the crash and we'll be able to give us some answers. >> you know, i'm glad you mentioned the bird strike possibility. i mean, there are drones now that people, you know, noncommercial users have them. you just don't know. given everything that's up there in the sky. i want to ask you real quickly about that. the angle i know i tend to. maybe it's just me, my friend. i am curious about the speed and the angle. i've seen a lot of catastrophic events take place in the skies. i don't remember seeing anything with that speed and trajectory in my life. how about you? >> certainly not. the first thing that i saw when i saw

that was that there was a catastrophic, perhaps explosion, perhaps a catastrophic loss of part of the flight control. something may have fallen off the airplane, which, you know, we've been talking about if folks are out there and they see debris that they're not sure where it is, don't touch it. let the ntsb come and take some pictures and photograph it and know where it was exactly. so they can help build that picture. when something is coming down that fast, it almost seems like the aircraft is in a power dive where perhaps one engine was running, another one was on fire coming straight down. the pilots had lost all control. perhaps they had no hydraulic power because an airplane wants to fly. it wants to go straight and level. the departure out of the airport is, you know, climb, and eventually you'll get to about 1500 feet, and then you'll continue on until you connect with air traffic control or get further instructions to climb out from there. but for an aircraft that was only at maybe 15 or 1600 feet to plunge at that kind of a rate tells me that perhaps it

climbed a little bit and then rolled over and then was in an inversion as it came down. i don't see it just sort of nosing over and going down. but of course anything is possible. but i've never seen anything like that. >> now we've got about 20s, and i know this calls for a very quick answer. it appeared to me to have been on fire. is that your impression? based on watching the video. >> it is my impression. i think i wouldn't have. you wouldn't have seen it in the dark and with the clouds, with with that kind of a streak coming straight down. so one of the engines was probably on fire, but we'll find out more later. >> yeah. the investigation continues. amen. a pleasure to have you with us. i wish on better circumstances, but we'll talk again real soon. thank you so much. jonathan, over to you. >> good evening. >> and kevin will continue our coverage of this tragic accident. a medevac learjet operated by mexico based jet rescue, plunging into the ground in a fireball. as you

quality is phenomenal. try the crossover bra today at honey love.com. >> continuing our coverage of the tragic air crash in philadelphia, you are looking now on the right of your screen at the website of the company that operated the medevac learjet. they are jet rescue. they are based in mexico and has operations throughout the united states. they say they specialize in these kind of medevac flights throughout mexico through a large part of south america. and obviously, with tonight's flight into and out of the us as well. jet rescue, by the way, is the same

company that flew the baseball player, david ortiz, out of the dominican republic after he was shot there back in, i believe that was 2019. there has been a previous crash. i'm not sure of the date of that, and i don't have that in front of me right now involving jet rescue. we're working to learn more about their safety record, but as i say, they are a mexico based company. and as we understand it, all six of the people on board that flight were from mexico, including a young girl who had been in philadelphia at shriners hospital, where, as we understand it, getting what is being termed life saving treatment. the crash happening obviously very suddenly, as you see on that video, the aircraft plunging into the ground at a huge rate of speed and a very steep rate of descent. joining us now with more on this, jonathan gilliam. jonathan is a former fbi agent and a former

federal air marshal. and jonathan, i assume as investigators begin looking at this, you can't rule out anything at this point. we've had a lot of guests, former pilots, etc, talking about the possibility of some sort of catastrophic mechanical failure. but in the early going, i assume investigators also have to look at the possibility of some sort of sabotage, deliberate sabotage, either before the plane took off or some sort of deliberate explosion prompted when it was in the air. >> i mean, that's a possibility. i, i don't see that occurring with this type of airplane. so if it was a terrorist, if we went historically on what a terrorist would type of aircraft that they would utilize to carry out an attack, it would not be, or it hasn't been this type of an aircraft historically, because the bang for your buck, as far as the

terrorists would be concerned would be minimal as can as far as what they typically are going for. so i don't. >> know if it was something. >> like that in this case, jonathan. it would be you'd obviously be you'd have to think that it was some sort of targeted attack, and we would have no reason to think that at this point. so what is your best bet here, jonathan? >> well, just from the sources that i've been talking to and listening to all the individuals that we've had on there tonight, i mean, it could have been mechanical, electrical. and as far as the failure goes, it could be. so one thing i find that's interesting is that when for even for experienced pilots, if you get into a situation where you're actually pushing the throttles forward and you're picking up speed and you're in a cloud, you can feel like your the plane is stalling or that you're pointing, that you're pointing in a different direction you're actually heading. that's why you have to

maintain a visual on your instruments, not outside, because your body may be telling you you're doing one thing when you're doing another. and in certain circumstances, if you feel like you're pitching up in the plane because the power is pushing you back in your seat, and you look outside and your body tells you you're going up, you're more apt to put the throttle forward. and if you're diving and you're not actually going up, then you will you'll just drive the plane straight into the ground. because, as your other guest had said it, this altitude, it may seem like a lot, but it's not. when you're traveling at a high rate of speed, it's seconds. so. >> right. and i think. >> i think what we're going to see is in line with the statistics, which show that the majority, the number one cause of airline accidents, is typically pilot error. and i think that's probably what we're going to see here. >> right. and we have heard from cb cotton on the ground and others that it was a pretty

cloudy and foggy night in philadelphia. and what you mentioned about the disorientation takes me back to a john f kennedy junior in, i think it was july 1999. that was exactly what happened to him, that disorientation. you talk about, how how scary would that be in the moment? jonathan? >> well, i don't so if they can't see out and they think that they are in a controlled, they're doing a controlled maneuver when they're actually diving. where it becomes scary is when they the instant before they hit the ground. because as you can see, that plane, it appears, where they're pulling back on the stick because it starts to curve just a little bit there at the end. and that's right when it breaks through the clouds. so if that is what occurred and we don't know, but if that's what occurred, from what the sources that i was talking to, if, if they think that they're going up. and so they pushed the throttles forward, they start picking up speed as soon as

they break through that cloud. and they realize that that that they're actually heading to the ground. your first instinct would be to pull back on the stick. and that could explain what was what was occurring. the other thing, which i've actually been in a plane, a small it was a cessna plane. me and one other individual, when we had a complete failure of the lights and we had to land the plane with a small flashlight, a pen, flashlight, looking at the instruments, and he was able to land it. so i've had that happen before. if we did not have a flashlight with us, we would have been in a tremendous amount of trouble. so wow. >> if the instruments. >> yeah, if the instruments went out on that plane, they do have. i'm a, i'm a layman. so i would say mechanical instruments, but instruments that don't rely on the electronics, they're supposed to be able to go and refer back to those instruments. if it's a total electronic board in front of them. but again, when you're

in the heat of the moment and you have seconds, you, you know, things start to occur where you get mixed up in what you're supposed to do. if you haven't faced that situation before. >> yeah. and then as a former fbi agent, jonathan, talk to me a little bit about how the investigation on the ground might unfold here. >> right. so this is where i can speak a little bit more to this, is that i've been at the first fbi agent at three different aircraft crashes in new york. one was cory lytle. he flew a plane into a building on the east side. he was a pitcher for the yankees, was a student pilot. and he flew a plane into a building on the east side of new york. the other one was the sully sullenberger. when he landed his plane onto the hudson river control landing in the water. and the third one was a helicopter tourist helicopter that had taken off over the hudson river. and an aircraft

came from teterboro airport, and they crashed into each other. and immediately, what you first thing that we typically do is try to see if this is terrorist related. and then, of course, the local law enforcement will be cordoned off the scene and trying to make things safe. but investigating this type of accident, once you've identified it, the ntsb will come there. and in this case, they're very they were they're they're very close by. yeah. same thing in dc. so when you're in other areas, it takes a lot longer for that investigation to start. but they're very methodical in the way that they investigate these things. >> they are indeed. and thank goodness for their investigations. and thank goodness for you, jonathan gilliam, great to have you with us, as always. and i'm i'm sorry we are doing this again just 48 hours after you and i were talking about the crash in dc. jonathan. >> can i thank you so much? >> can i say, can i say. >> one more thing real. >> quick, jonathan?

>> yeah. >> one thing i don't want to scare anybody, but one thing is very peculiar because i thought this was the case and i looked it up, is that these types of accidents will often happen in threes or more. so it would not surprise me if we within the next month we have another accident. >> yeah. well, i certainly hope you are wrong on that. we will keep our fingers crossed for everybody flying obviously. jonathan gilliam, thank you so much kevin. >> interesting conversation jonathan, thank you so much. quick time out as we continue our coverage, breaking news coverage here on fox news channel of the devastating crash in philadelphia. this one has left a lot of people asking a lot of questions. that and more as we continue after this quick timeout. >> let's wake up america. >> fox nation is taking you behind the scenes of america's favorite morning show. >> conversation, credible news. >> interesting interviews, and a lot of fun with.

united states. this time a medevac learjet slamming into the ground in a densely packed neighborhood in philadelphia. six people, including a young girl on board that plane. we understand there are casualties on the ground, too. we go now live to fox news correspondent cb cotton in a city cb that i assume is in deep shock. these early hours of saturday morning. >> hi jonathan, there is definitely a collective shock and you can feel it here on the ground. roads are still blocked off. we're about a quarter mile away from the initial crash site, and it's going to be gut wrenching for first responders as this investigation gets underway. i'm told by a senior fire official that when people first started to respond, there was one person still alive on fire. but that person later died as first responders began their work here on scene. so that just gives you a glimpse into how gruesome things were

here. the company who owns this medical plane that crashed also gave us insight about who was on board, telling us there were four crew members and a young girl and her mother. shriners children's hospital here in philly says that young girl had been receiving life saving treatment and was on the way back to mexico, where she and the other people on board are all from. so there are wide reaching impacts from this crash. take a look at this. this is a piece of debris. i'm told that this piece of debris went through a window at a nearby diner. a diner employee tells me that this hit a customer in the head, and that customer was bleeding, but thankfully. okay, so. and i want to show the images of this crash because they are just horrific. we know this all unfolded just after 6 p.m. today. the plane was captured erupting into a huge fireball near cottman avenue and roosevelt boulevard in philly.

several homes caught fire. thankfully, firefighters were able to get everyone out of those homes. this crash caused a three alarm fire. a total of 151st responders arrived to include firefighters and ems personnel. now the investigation is underway into how this happened. governor josh shapiro, with this tonight. >> there will be loss in this region, and we want to offer our thoughts and our serious prayers for those who are grieving at this moment. the mayor knows, and i want you all to know, that the commonwealth of pennsylvania stands firmly with our partners in the city. >> so this tragedy happened during rush hour traffic in this busy shopping center area. i suspect several businesses will remain closed tomorrow. of course, we know the most significant impact is the loss of life. and tonight, hearts

are breaking for those who perished during this awful, awful crash. jonathan, back to you. >> and i see the lights flashing behind you there. obviously still a very active scene in terms of the investigation. but what do we know about the injuries and if indeed there are any fatalities on the ground? there are. are we expecting officials to give us any updates on that kind of thing in the next couple of hours or not, until first light? >> no updates are expected tonight. we do know from the owner of that medical plane, the owner of the company released a statement saying it was doubtful there were any survivors. and if you look at that video, you can understand why. but we do know from another local hospital here in philly that six other people were transported from the site to receive treatment. we're told all of those people are suspected to be okay. now we're

just trying to learn where those people were at here on the ground when that plane crashed. we are hoping to get more updates from officials here tomorrow because like i mentioned earlier, there's collective shock. people want answers. and as you mentioned in less than 48 hours, now we're talking about another plane crash here in the northeast. it is just awful. >> and i assume, cb, that people on the ground are also talking about that, that they they've been watching there in philadelphia, as we all have across the country, the horrors that unfolded in dc. and now they must be absolutely stunned to see this happen in their own city. >> they are they're very stunned. and i think it also sends a collective fear through so many people about about traveling by plane. i know that's how i've certainly felt. i talked to one witness here and he said it felt like an earthquake when he saw this plane crash. and we're looking at videos on social media. one

man was in the drive through at a mcdonald's nearby when he saw the crash happened. and you can imagine how traumatic this is going to be for the people who had to witness this. >> yeah. cb we are very fortunate to have you there. thank you for all your work. cb cotton in philadelphia. kevin. >> jonathan cb thank you. maybe we can get cbs dad on. i did not know that her father was a pilot. now the cause of the crash is still unknown. as first responders try to sift through the wreckage for more answers, we now go to former ntsb board member and former airline mechanic john goglia. john, i have to say, we've been sort of talking throughout the evening about the speed and the trajectory of this aircraft as it came to a sudden crash. we've also talked at length about the fact that it appeared to have been ablaze as it did so. your reaction to the video, and what can you tell us from your experience?

>> well, it's obviously a little bit too early to make any conclusions, except the fact that the airplane came down abruptly. now, why would an airplane come down on fire? there's a whole host of reasons which the ntsb will certainly explore. but it's way too early to be speculating on all of that. however, it's foggy the airplane may have. there may have been some issues with the crew. the learjet is a great airplane, but they required a pilot to maintain their attention. so if there was something that diverted the pilots attention, or if he got going, he could have possibly stalled the airplane and have it come down virtually straight into the ground. so it's, you know, the details are too sketchy to draw anything really conclusive at this point. and

the government hasn't released any of the details of how the radar track or if he had declared an emergency. i haven't heard that yet. >> you know, it's also interesting to me is the maintenance possibility. again, this is an aircraft that originated in mexico. if my understanding is correct, might that play again? we're all speculating here tonight and we're grasping at straws, frankly, john, because we are just trying to figure out what may have happened. but based on your experience, how important is maintenance and the maintenance record going to be as they continue their investigation? >> well, when the when i saw that the airplane was registered, registered in mexico, it certainly caused me to pause because the mexican government has been downgraded by the us more than once for not having the. oversight. detail required for a country to maintain a level of standard

of safety for the airplane operators within their country. you know, so this airplane has to comply with the mexican rules, not the us rules. and if the mexican government has a weak oversight of their operators, anything could happen. this is not a very modern airplane. this is this is an airplane that's been around for quite a while. so it's a condition of it could be at risk. and since it was a medical use helicopter, they may have had a large supply of oxygen on the airplane. and we have had oxygen fires on airplanes before. >> so yeah. >> that was one of the things i was wondering about. i'm glad you mentioned that, especially given the what appeared to be the fire as it came careening down toward the ground there. i want to circle back just a bit. i thought what you said was fairly instructive about the maintenance of an aircraft like that, and in particular, the difference between the american

standard and the mexican standard. if i could get you to drill down on maybe what's the most important thing based on your experience and looking at a learjet 55? what are they like? are they reliable? generally speaking, what's the one thing that would get your attention if you are trying to maintain an aircraft like that? >> all right. so the a 55 has been around for a long time. the platform itself has proven to be very reliable, but that reliability base is based upon the fact that you maintain it to a certain level. and what we have found with theustry to the level that the world requires. so the standards, the standards for oversight are upon the government process, not on the individuals. it'sg the government has to have a robust system of oversight ofaircft, e operating within their country. and more than once in the last

decade have have the governments been cited for not having the resources the people in the in the equivalent of the faa to oversee the airplanes that operate in their country. but we've had restrictions on the commercial aviation portion of the mexican aviation operation. doesn't mean they still can't operate in the united states, but it does mean that they're not going to be allowed to expand operations in the united states for commercial use. >> and very interesting. yeah, that that is fascinating. we actually have a graphic up, john, that we're showing the folks that are watching from home, including the maximum speed, the range. i find it very fascinating, your discussion about the idea that the maintenance standards may differ from country to country. do they differ from country to country, and how that may or may not have had an impact on an aircraft like this one,

particularly john one that's been busy. this one has been up and down quite a lot during these particular flights. i want to ask you something that again is a bit speculative, but i just want to again, from your experience, if someone had a drone and no one is saying that this happened, but just because i'm curious if someone had a drone noncommercial drone, could something like that. we talked about bird strikes earlier in the evening. could a drone or something like that bring down a jet like this, or is that highly unlikely in your view? >> it it's pretty unlikely. i mean, we have an example up in, in la just a few weeks ago where a drone struck one of the firefighting airplanes and actually did some pretty, pretty interesting damage to the airplane. it didn't bring it down, but it did cause some damage. now, the little drones are so lightweight they can't be in the air very long and they can't be very high. they just don't have the power or the same powerful physical

power to get up that high. and staying power to stay up there. so it's not likely. it's not likely. it is possible. you know, when they call the golden bullet or some phrase like that where it could, at some point in time, go right through the cockpit window. unlikely. but you know, you can't rule it all out and cause enough damage to bring an airplane down. but it's so, so remote. you wouldn't look for that. now, that's that's the little drones i'm talking about. the recreational drones. right. there are some there are some big commercial drones out there that could get could get away. but the faa requires them to have an infrastructure in place to take care of the airplane. you know, because it is an airplane when it's flying to take care of that vehicle in the air. so yeah, i, i wouldn't i wouldn't put a lot of faith

in that. it's probably. >> you know, this is this is one of those little things, john. and by the way, i should mention that john is a former ntsb board member. i know the coordination and the collaboration between agencies is so critical in a circumstance like that. unfortunately, we've seen the same thing here in the nation's capital over the last 48 hours, and we will see that very likely play out again to a similar extent in the commonwealth of pennsylvania. john, we're going to leave it there for now. thank you so very much. john goglia joining us tonight. former airline mechanic and former ntsb board member john, thank you. >> thank you for having me. >> jonathan, over to you. >> and, kevin, i want to take our viewers now to a fox news alert out of gaza. three hostages are due to be released this morning by hamas. and we have seen two of them. the one we have not seen yet is 65 year old u.s. citizen keith segal. the two that we have seen

released are ofer calderon and 35 year old yarden bibas. two israeli citizens now. keith segal, the 65 year old american israeli, is a dual citizen. he's originally from north carolina. he was taken captive with his wife, aviva, from kibbutz kfar aza during the hamas led invasion and massacre in southern israel on october 7th, 2023. the wife of viva was freed during a previous ceasefire in november 2023. calderon calderon was kidnaped with two of his children. they were both freed in the previous ceasefire and bibas, his wife sherry, and children ariel and kiefer were all abducted together. so now we await as you look at the red cross vehicles there, with the two israelis already released and handed over. we await the handover of this 65 year old

u.s. citizen, keith segal. we have not seen him as yet. and those red cross vehicles, at least some of them, now appear to be leaving that area of southern gaza. we will keep a watch on this. we will await news of keith segal. we may have missed his handover. we definitely saw the two younger israeli men. we will keep you updated on the release or otherwise, of 65 year old u.s. citizen keith segal. and we'll be back after a break. >> it was a jailbreak. >> how many got out? >> a lot. that's why you're here. >> we need your help to catch them. >> the hunting party. check your local listings. >> to my son. i've never been the cool dad. i always want to

love.com. >> welcome back everybody. this is fox news continuous coverage of a small plane crash in northeastern philadelphia. kevin corke jonathan hunt with you throughout the evening hours here on fox news channel. this was apparently a jet, a bit of an air ambulance, if you will, transporting six people, including a very small, we understand, a minor child who had undergone a life saving

procedure, and unfortunately, all six people aboard the aircraft appear to have perished and there have been some injuries on the ground as well. we want to talk about what the first responders and safety officials are doing. they are obviously racing around the clock to try to clear out the debris and investigate the cause of the crash. that debris field is probably sizable given the speed of impact. we have joined now by jason pack, former fema external affairs officer and first responder. jason, always great to have you with us. i find your conversation with my colleague very interesting earlier in the night. i want to build on some of what you and jonathan hunt were talking about. most notably, as i looked at the speed and the trajectory of that aircraft coming down, it shocked me. maybe that's just a lack of experience. i feel like i have some and watching these things and i'm just curious, what do you make of what we saw there?

>> mr. kirk? it's quite remarkable. you're driving down roosevelt avenue in philadelphia, and it looks like something that you would see in israel with the iron dome or something, just the trajectory and the speed at which that plane hit is just remarkable, really. some solid work, as we were talking about earlier by the first responders there. philadelphia fire, philadelphia police, philadelphia ems, one of the busiest emergency medical services in the country. so having to deal with a crisis like this in your city and also run the calls that come in in a normal day, in a normal time. so while they were all responding to this, there were still other emergencies going on in the city, so hats off to them. another thing you haven't seen in our video that we're looking at here in the b-roll, there's no hotspots, you see being doused by firefighters. at least there's no new video of it that we've seen. so it looks like everything is pretty well contained there, pretty well cooled off, and it seems like they're just securing the scen, along with philadelphia police, to have a way to look at it

tomorrow for first light. and so what you'll also see are fire inspectors, building inspectors, code enforcement coming in to take a look at these buildings to see if they're safe, if they're habitable, and what it's going to take to get some of these places back up and running to for businesses to open or for people to move back into. >> yeah. incredible. really. when you add it all up, fire, police, ems, we're talking about state, local and obviously federal collaboration and cooperation in a circumstance like this. we're still looking for more information at daybreak from the ntsb and the faa as well. jason, very quick conversation this time. we'll see you again in our next hour. jason pack joining us there as we continue our coverage here on fox news channel. quick time out after this. >> g. ivanova. powers america. >> every day. >> as the. >> leading american energy manufacturer. >> we've never stopped building the technologies that drive today's economy and define the future of energy. we know an
