The men were the only passengers on board the twin-engine Beechcraft King Air plane at the time of the crash on Wednesday morning.
The plane was completely destroyed in the crash, which will now be investigated by the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA).
Casa Grande Assistant Fire Chief Jim Morgan told azfamiy.com: "The aircraft made a sudden ascent, then a sudden descent and crashed to the ground where it burst into flames upon impact.

According to Tucson News Now, the cause of the crash is currently unknown.
