UPDATE (2:19 p.m.): The jet is registered to the Collings Foundation in Massachusetts, according to a Midland news release. The foundation's executive director, Rob Collings, said there was no crash. Instead, the canopy over the passenger was improperly secured and came off during takeoff, which the pilot aborted. Collings said the jet never left the runway and there was no damage. The plane should be able to take off again. It had stopped for fuel en route to Houston from Tuscon, where it was traveling for an exhibition.
Once again, the press blew things out of proportion.
Glad to hear everything is OK both with everyone and the plane.
