A fire followed, and reports are that all five on board died in the crash.
Reports say all five are from Texas, and one was a child.
It is unknown how long the airport will be shut down, but Hwy. 65 traffic and throughout the Hollister area traffic was being diverted to provide access for emergency vehicles.
