A World War II plane crashed at Bradley International Airport in Connecticut on Wednesday morning, resulting in an undisclosed number of fatalities, officials said.
The airport -- the second largest in New England -- closed immediately after the crash. The airport is expected to reopen at 1:30 p.m. using one runway, officials said. Officials with the Collings Foundation, an educational foundation which holds the Wings of Freedom tour, said in a statement:"Our thoughts and prayers are with those who were on that flight and we will be forever grateful to the heroic efforts of the first responders at Bradley Airport. The Collings Foundation flight team is fully cooperating with officials to determine the cause of the crash of the B-17 Flying Fortress.
"Vintage planes must be properly maintained & flown— & the NTSB must tell us whether this tragedy could have been prevented," Blumenthal said.
