  A 15-year-old student pilot,flying a small plane without permission(许可)and pursued by a Coast Guard helicopter(直升飞机)crashed(猛撞)into a skyscraper.
  The crash occurred after Bishop’s grandmother took him to the flight school for a 5 p.m flying lesson. Marianne Pasha said an instructor(教练)told Bishop to check equipment(设备). The next thing the instructor knew is thathe was gone, Pasha said. The plane blasting(爆炸)a hole in the side of a skyscraper was a chilling reminder of the World Trade Center attacks. The plane’s tail dangled(摇摆)near the 28th floor of the 42-story Bank of America building. Only a few office workers and the staff(职员)of a club in the building were present at the time of the crash. None were injured.
  Cronin, an attorney(律师)said the boy was very familiar with operation(操作)at the school. Students do preflight(起飞前)equipment checks on their own, then have their accuracy verified(鉴定)by an instructor.
  “The bottom line is he essentially stole the aircraft,” Cronin said. “We aren’t going to speculate(推测)what his mental state or motivations(动机)were.” Some media reported that hesympathizes with(同情)Bin Laden.
  
  一个15岁的学生飞行员,驾驶一架被海岸警备队追赶的没有驾照的飞机,撞到了大楼上。
  坠机事件发生在比绍普的祖母带他去飞行学校上下午5点的课时。Marianne Pasha,一名教练告诉比绍普上课前检查一下装备。接下来发生的事是教练知道他起飞了,录影显示飞机在大楼一侧撞开的一个洞里爆炸。这次撞击引起了人们对世贸大楼的悲凉记忆。机尾在42层的银行大楼的第28层震动摇摆。撞机的时候只有少数的办公人员和一个俱乐部的成员在现场。没有人受伤。
  律师Cronin说这个男孩在学校时非常熟悉飞行操作,学生们在起飞前都会检查自己的飞机,然后由教练核查无误后起飞。
  “他偷了飞机,”Cronin说,“我们现在不想推测他的精神状况或者动机。”有媒体报道他很同情本·拉登。
