Considerable time, amount of time, but of course, that also may have meant that it caught some of the structure on fire as well. but again, a larger -- if it were an aircraft the size of a cirrus, that probably has about 70 gallons of fuel on board, that's certainly an intense fire, but it's not going to last that long on the fuel alone. i mean, the cessna 208, the caravan that you mentioned later on would carry a considerable alt of fuel more than that most likely. but again, if it was something, you know, destructively planned, i mean, it would have had considerably more i think than we saw....

Whatever plane hit this building is reduced to little bits of aluminum or maybe composite at this point. but again, a single engine plane has hit that building in austin, texas, and no word yet on how many people inside the building may have been injured. you can see, it is a blue sky day, it is not a difficult day for a pilot to fly. so there had to be some kind of either pilot incapacitytation or perhaps aircraft mechanical problem. again, the witnesses on the ground who spoke with our jenna gibson, they say the plane seemed to be flying out of control, it barely missed some power lines, and...

There are seven or eight or ten office buildings on this one little street, it's only basically two blocks long, and the parking areas are full of people onlooking. jamie: in terms of the emergency response, what are you seeing there now? are you seeing that they are still actively battling these blazes? because we've heard, and i don't know if you have a view of the front of this building, but it's been reported that the entire front part of this structure collapsed. you're saying the fire was limited to basically two floors at this time. is it growing, could that be just from the impact of t...
