DEVELOPING STORY: The captain of a Continental Airlines flight en route from Brussels, Belgium, to Newark, N.J., died during the trip, FOX News confirmed.

The pilot died Thursday aboard Continental Flight 61, and the co-pilot took over the aircraft's controls, FAA spokesman Les Dorr told FOX.

The plane was scheduled to land in Newark about 11:43 a.m. EDT.

Very sad, but stories like this make me wonder how the media can find out this information. Unless they are monitoring oceanic feeds.

The media is all over EVERYTHING. They have people on the inside.

I work for a TV station in a small market - you'd be surprised where news comes from - that's why I normally don't believe what I hear on TV.

That's incredible. Both the incident, and the fact the media seemingly know everything.

I'm surprised Fox news didn't start speculating on what was the cause of death

Heads up guys/gals. This thread belongs in the Listener forum as there is no ATC clip.
