On Oct. 29 the plane crashed at about 9:30 a.m. near Raven Avenue and Hinson Street, several miles southwest of the Las Vegas Strip. Witnesses told the Clark County Fire Department they saw the plane flying low before hearing the crash and describing an "awful" sound and a giant "fireball."
First responders say the plane struck the wall of a construction site and burst into flames.
The National Transportation Safety Board (NTSB) and FAA continue to investigate the incident.
