Witness Garry Rathore, who was working on his truck about a half mile away from the site of the crash, said: “When I got outside it was, just, boom.

"It was flaming all around… It just dropped out of the sky."

Mr Rathore said the plane went down around 1pm local time.

He added: “I see all around the ambulances and the fire truck.

“It was pretty scary. You can’t unsee these things.”
