Everything appears normal as the pilot is speaking to the tower. The pilot seems relaxed and everything appears business as usual, but then -- abruptly -- panic sets in.
The pilot screams, "Oh s***, Oh s***, Oh S***!" His words are followed by a scream, and that's the last transmission.
All 4 on board were killed. The plane all but disintegrated upon impact, leaving a fireball.
It was raining at the time and the plane struck several power lines. The cause of the crash, however, has yet to be determined.
The crash caused a power outage in the area.
Names of the victims have not yet been revealed.
