Yes, the explosion was huge.. here is a youtube video someone got on their webcam.. explosion at 50 seconds in.. that was no tiny plane

reports are that it was a twin engine plane, with 3 adults, 3 children on board
I just watched that on abc 15 website and was looking for the YouTube link. Thanks FRiend! That was a pretty good sized aircraft with a heck of an explosion. Prayers for the souls on board.
KSAZ just said that they are finding boxes of peanut brittle at the scene, and that there were children on board. Pilot was apparently bringing his children to purchase cacti to bring to his mother-in-laws house in Chandler.
That big explosion is just the camera’s sensor being overloaded. You can’t make any assessment about the size of the plan from that alone.
