This one goes was a Lear 55 that crashed into the Roosevelt Mall in Philadelphia just 30 seconds after takeoff from NE Philadelphia Airport. Big fireball that spread to other nearby homes.

The identifier indicates a Mexican aircraft (MTS56) I checked its flight plan. Lists as a jet rescue air ambulance. It came from Opa-Locka FL to Philly, and had taken off for Springfield, MO. The plan indicated it was to leave SGF yet tonight for Tijuana.

Perhaps it dropped off a patient in Philadelphia. Gotta wonder if the aircraft was somehow sabotaged.
