Plane Crash in AZ

Plane crashed into the Superstition mountains near my home a couple hours ago. Pretty scary looking. Helicopters are going nuts out here. Be safe out there this Thanksgiving.

That is a massive fireball, any word on the size of the plane? How many passengers?

3 adults and 3 children according to CNN

Twin engine small plane, haven't found much detail beyond that and a report of audible engine trouble from a witness.

That is a pretty big looking explosion, maybe twin engine jet to have that much fuel? no idea.. but.. sucks.

I pray that they made it out.. but..

Edit: plane was a rockwell turbo commander 690
