Beech King Air Crash at Long Beach Airport


I usually listen to the tower at LGB all day long, but this happened after I turned the radio on. I noticed that there was a lot of helicopter activity around one of the runways, and that the runway was closed. I didn't think anything about it until my wife came home and told me about it.
A Beech King Air went down on takeoff, killing 5 of the people on board.
