    I know this happened this morning, but yesterday, I was out working in our yard, and a small plane was flying over our house, and it sounded like it was about to cut off and crash. It sounded so abnormal, that I went inside, and told my husband about it. I can't help but wonder, if this is the same small plane?

    Years and years ago, if anyone remembers....there was a plane crash in the back of Rosemont section in Orlando. Weeks went by, and my mother got a pack in the mail, opened it, and there was mail she had sent off to pay her routine bills, and the payment letters were all black, charred, and burnt.. A letter stated that her mail had been recovered from the charred plane wreckage. My mom and I drove over into Rosemont, and saw where the plane crashed and burnt. A large area was burnt including several full grown trees. I can't remember if anyone was killed, but my mama was shocked by the pack from the post office.

    There was another plane that crashed into a lake in Rosemont, but that is not the one I am referring to to. The one that went into the lake happened in 2015, and my mom died in 2006, and that plane crash happened way, way, before those years.
