Swiss Pilot calls mom to say "I'm just going to drop by," then crashes his plane into her house!



An amateur pilot who bitterly resented his mother killed himself by crashing a plane into her house.
Konrad Schmidt, 47, hoped to take mum Rosemary to the grave with him and phoned her from the cockpit asking: “Are you home? I am just going to drop by.”
Rosemary, 68, survived because she was in her basement. Neighbours helped her to safety and she was treated for shock.
Eyewitnesses said the crash was no accident because Konrad flew the twin-engined plane over the house three times at high speed.
One said: “He had all these fly pasts. He was lining himself up and then he did it. It was like seeing a mini re-run of 9/11.”
Police found his body in the wreckage of the house, which will have to be demolished.
Rosemary told police her son had phoned her from the rented aircraft shortly before the kamikaze-style attack on Saturday.
Jobless Konrad had a long-running feud with his mother, neighbours in Oberhallau, Switzerland, revealed.
