Authorities mentioned that no distress signals were sent before the aircraft crashed, as the small airport lacked an air traffic control tower.

The National Transportation Safety Board (NTSB) and Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) were informed and will carry out separate inquiries, as stated by the highway patrol.

The NTSB and FAA did not immediately respond to Fox News Digital’s request for comment.
