Looks like the Plane took off, had problems, tried to turn back but had to make an attempt at landing on the road.

i was driving home from work, heading northbound on russ baker. just before gilbert, i noticed a small aircraft heading towards me from an angle, flying very low. next thing i knew, the aircraft hit the ground, slid across the road and left a trail of fire. the fire was creating a lot of thick black smoke. a lot of people pulled over and rushed over to help. the first firetruck arrived on scene probably within a minute.

the passengers were stumbling out of the plane with the help of passerby's. the radio station said all the passengers made it out ok (no mention of the pilot - hope he's ok).

how the eff is the pilot MIA?

The only thing rolling around in my head is that he had a parachute and he jumped out?
But, that seems highly unlikely

I've yet to meet a pilot who would jump out of his plane and let his passengers die.

WTF? So the pilot ditched his passengers?

"Well looks like were crashing. We have 1 parachute onboard so goodbye guys, good luck."
