Despite being out of contact on its ascent Sunday afternoon, the jet that had just taken off from a Tennessee airport continued toward its intended destination.
Experts continued to speculate that the pilot likely lost consciousness from a lack of oxygen inside the jet when it climbed above 10,000 feet, the altitude that typically requires cabin pressurization.
The plane's owner identified his daughter, Adina Azarian, and 2-year-old granddaughter Aria, as two of the victims. Their nanny and the pilot also died.
