[Witness] Kenneth Gipp heard a noise just after 6 p.m. and looked out his brother’s window to discover a shocking sight.

“Like a loud engine noise. I saw the aircraft leaning real hard to the right, it looked like the wing hit the ground first,” said Gipp.

Gipp saw the nose of the plane crashing into the ground.

“There were just a line of flames going from where it hit up to the plane,” said Gipp.

It was not immediately known what caused the crash, but according to TMJ4, the plane radioed in to announce a “go-around,” or aborted landing, just before the fire broke out.
