Coconino County sheriff’s officials said the single-engine Piper PA-28 went down in a field after taking off from H.A. Clark Memorial Field Airport in Williams shortly after noon.
Authorities said a 31-year-old pilot, a 44-year-old flight instructor and a 51-year-old passenger all were killed in the crash.
The plane was registered to a flight school in San Diego.
Authorities said witnesses told them the plane “appeared to slow, lose altitude, and stall” before it went down in an open field.
