Witnesses said the plane made a rapid descent, almost bouncing along the runway before the pilot got it back in the air, then lost control. The plane banked to its side and then crashed, somersaulting into a parked airplane and a hangar, where it burst into flames. Two explosions followed the crash and sent debris falling across the airport, where dozens of planes were parked, their pilots and passengers awaiting an evening cookout.
