A small plane crash killed two people in Arizona’s Gila Bend Mountains on Tuesday, officials said.
After taking off, the plane never returned to Buckeye Airport, the Maricopa County Sheriff’s Office told Fox 10. The wreckage was located 17 miles south of the airport.
None of the people on the plane survived.
A Federal Aviation Administration spokesman, Ian Gregor, told ABC15 that a Vans RV-7---a low-wing, single-engine plane with two seats---was slated to return 10 a.m. on Tuesday. But it never did.
John McMahon, the city’s Airport Coordinator, died in the crash, the City of Buckeye confirmed.
