Grant County Coroner Chris Butche tells WTHR-TV that one of the planes lifted off from a runway at Marion Municipal Airport on Monday and clipped a larger plane that was landing. In a statement, the Federal Aviation Administration said the smaller plane struck the tail of the jet — which was carrying five people — shortly after 5 p.m.

McKinney said the smaller plane was out for a pleasure trip. "Pilots using the field are expected to announce their intentions on a common radio frequency and to coordinate with one another while on the ground and in the traffic pattern," the FAA said. A Cessna 150 and a Cessna 525 Citation jet were involved in the crash at Marion Municipal Airport, according to the National Transportation Safety Board (NTSB).
