THE PVT PIC AND HIS PAX, ALSO A PVT PLT, DEPARTED THE PIC'S PVT AIRSTRIP FOR A LOCAL PLEASURE FLT. AN ACFT, SIMILAR IN SIZE AND COLOR TO THE PLT'S WAS SEEN DOING LOW LEVEL FLT AT TREE TOP LEVEL WITH ABRUPT PULL-UPS NEAR WHERE THE PLT NORMALLY FLEW. THE PLT AND PAX FAILED TO RETURN FROM THEIR FLT AND THE ACFT AND ITS OCCUPANTS WERE SUBSEQUENTLY DISCOVERED IN A FIELD CLOSE TO THE PLT'S RESIDENCE. IMPACT DAMAGE INDICATES THE ACFT WAS PROBABLY IN A LEFT TURN SPIN JUST PRIOR TO CRASHING. THE ACFT WAS SUBSTANTIALLY DAMAGED AND ITS TWO OCCUPANTS WERE KILLED.
