49 νεκροί είναι ο τραγικός απολογισμός από την πτώση αεροσκάφους της αμερικανικής εταιρείας Continental λίγο μετά τις 10 χτες το βράδυ σε κατοικημένη περιοχή, στο Buffalo της Νέας Υόρκης. Το αεροπλάνο είχε απογειωθεί από το Newark του New Jersey. Προσεγγίζοντας το διεθνές αεροδρόμιο Νιαγάρα στο Buffalo άρχισε, λίγο μετά τις 10 το βράδυ τοπική ώρα, τη διαδικασία καθόδου κι ενώ στην περιοχή έπνεαν ισχυροί άνεμοι κι επικρατούσε ομίχλη και αραιή χιονόπτωση. H επικοινωνία, μέχρι την στιγμή που διεκόπη ξαφνικά, με τον τον πύργο ελέγχου λίγο πριν την πρόσκρουση ήταν κανονική, χωρίς να αναφερθεί κάποιο πρόβλημα. Κατά την προσγείωση το αεροσκάφος χάθηκε από τα ραντάρ, για να συντριβεί από άγνωστη μέχρι στιγμής αιτία πάνω σε σπίτι πυκνοκατοικημένης συνοικίας.
