The plane was outfitted with an additional tank that was full of fuel, which explains the intensity of the fire, he added. Cellphone video appeared to show the crash near the runway seconds after takeoff and a large plume of black smoke ascending from the planeвЂ™s charred remains.Д«oggs said the aircraft was recently modified from a Continental engine to a Rolls Royce turbine engine. The 1978, six-seater Cessna P210N Centurion aircraft crashed at about 1:10 p.m. вЂњWeвЂ™re going to look at that but thereвЂ™s so much fire damage we donвЂ™t think weвЂ™re going to get any usable data off of that,вЂќ Boggs said. Some smaller planes do feature boxes that show how the aircraftвЂ™s engines were running.

Unlike larger and commercial aircraft, small personal planes donвЂ™t have black boxes or cockpit voice recorders that can shed light on the cause of crashes. It will be particularly difficult because the fire damage was so extensive, Boggs said. Later Sunday, a salvaging company was expected to move the remains of the aircraft to a secure facility, where NTSB officials will dissect the surviving components of the plane.
