It was a busy Sunday for the men at Co. 28. At 1215 hours the truck was alerted 3rd due to Co. 39’s area for smoke coming from the house. The truck arrived first and handled a small fire in the kitchen. As the crew was cleaning up back at the firehouse, the engine was alerted by PSC for a plane crash with multiple houses on fire in the area of Auburn ave and Chestnut ave in the first due. The updated address was given enroute for the 6600 block of Chestnut ave . Engine 281 arrived first on scene to find a plane into a house with fire showing and a car on fire across the street. Both fires’s were extinguished quickly. Unfortunately the pilot was found deceased on scene. Company 28 remained on scene for 7 hours to assist the investigators. ... See MoreSee Less
