Not sure they have confirmed or publically announced the victims yet, but they are stating that the plane was owned by a Zingali, and based out of Torrance, CA.

Witnesses reported 3 attempts at a downwind takeoff in a straight-tail A36. The runway at Corona is only 3200' long.

My condolences to all the family members.

Dave
