Two confirmed dead as planes collide mid-air at regional airport

Two people died after two small planes collided mid-air at Marana Regional Airport, Arizona, around 8:30 a.m. The crash involved a Cessna 172S and a Lancair 360 MK II, each carrying two people.

One plane landed safely, while the other crashed and caught fire near the runway. The NTSB confirmed both fatalities were from one aircraft, while the other two passengers were uninjured.

Marana Regional Airport, which lacks an air traffic control tower, is temporarily closed for investigation. Officials expressed condolences and thanked emergency responders. The airport is part of the FAA’s Air Traffic Control Tower Program, which could lead to future safety improvements.
