The plane crashed onto rocky, hilly terrain on a privately owned ranch, but those in nearby homes saw or heard it before it fell from the sky.

One resident says that he heard a loud boom while he was sleeping, causing him to wake up.

Another witness says he saw the plane coming out of the sky while losing altitude and then nose-diving behind some homes in the distance.
