Two people have been treated at the scene for minor injuries, according to initial reports.

A single-engine plane was attempting to land at about 2pm, according to Kalispell Police Chief Jordan Venezio and the Federal Aviation Administration.

The Socata TBM 700 turboprop aircraft is believed to have suffered a technical issue on the runway before colliding into a second small plane on the taxiway.

A loud explosion was heard as a fire quickly spread across the tarmac and onto a grassy part of the airport.

Venezio said that several other aircraft were also involved.

It is believed that at least four people were onboard the crashed aircraft at the time.

The pilot and three passengers were able to get out as the plane came to a stop, Kalispell Fire Chief Jay Hagen said.

No one was on the stationary plane, reports 8KPAX.

The Kalispell Police Department, Flathead County Sheriff’s Office and local firefighters all rushed to the tarmac after the crash.

The first emergency call came in at 2:08pm.

Investigations are ongoing into what caused the accident.

The airport has been temporarily closed as emergency personnel continue to battle with the aftermath of the flames.

The plane was built in 2011 and is owned by Meter Sky LLC of Pullman, Washington, FAA records show.

It comes two years after a deadly plane crash rocked another airport in Montana.

Paul Ehlen, the owner of Precision Lens in Bloomington, Minnesota, died in June 2023 shortly after taking off from Hamilton Airport.

He was flying a single-engine vintage World War II-era aircraft at the time.
