I just saw that on the news -- they're now saying "aircraft" because it might have been a small plane.
Wesley: Hey. Hey, Gunn. Is something weird going on? … Charles, you just peed on my shoes. Gunn: I'll be damned. That's weird.

Bloody hell. I hope they are right it is a small aircraft. Last time I heard a small aircraft, those were the first reports from the Pentagon hit, people saying it was a small private plane...

Because books.
They keep saying they don't know which, but suspect it might have been a helicopter because of a heliport at 63rd St.
Such an awful deja vu feeling, watching all the smoke.

They say small private multi-engine plane, halfway down the building...
Visibility was 18,000 feet, pretty good

That didn't even occur to me, if you can believe it.
They're saying helicopter for sure now -- there were pictures of the debris on the street on FoxNews.

I swear, I wish they'd wait to report stuff until it's absolutely certain. I *just* heard someone say helicopter!

Reuters says:
Several helicopters have crashed over the years into or near the rivers flanking Manhattan.
How...comforting. A good friend of mine used to live at 72nd/York. I'm so glad she moved to Queens!

And NBC helpfully adds:
Witnesses said the crash caused a loud noise, and burning and falling debris was seen.
No shit, a loud noise? And falling debris? That's some crack reporting, right there.
