Was on the phone to the mother just then, and noticed out my window a plane in the distance... nothing too unusual I hear you say, BUT I then noticed a SHIT load of black smoke come from the back of it & the plane started to look like it was loosing altitude...

Piccies aint too great, but you can see what I mean... by time I found the camera, it had travelled a fair bit since I saw the blackness and was definately getting lower...

Pic of the big black smokey patch where it originall seem'd to go Boom


Piccie of the plane flying & coming lower (not that 1 engine is still emitting 'black smoke' or what looks like it anyways...




Gona keep an eye on the news & see whats what...

yes if it had of crashed, would be well known of, but if it was just a flame out on the engine, might just get local news at best... tbh it looks like it could of just been a flamer, or there keeping it under wraps if it was a cargo plane or something!
