It seems like these small private twin-engine planes crash quite often…

The plane, which was on fire, crashed in an open ravine, but managed to avoid a nearby school,homes and a strip mall. In doing so, this private pilot managed to avoid crashing in to the public, unlike what happened when a Navy Jet crashed into a neighborhood in University City on December 8,2008, killing the unsuspecting mother, Young Mi Yoon, 36; her daughters, 15-month-old Grace and 7-week-old Rachel; and Yoon’s 60-year-old mother, Seokim Kim.(SOURCE)
The twin-engine plane had just taken off from the Oceanside airport when it experienced some kind of problem and crashed about one-third of a mile away, said Michael Drake, a spokesman with county Public Works Department.
The accident happened near State Route 76 and North El Camino Real in Oceanside and was reported shortly before 11 a.m., according to the California Highway Patrol.
The firefighters had the blaze under control within 20 minutes of the crash, and no structures were involved.
It is unfortunate the pilot had to die, but his family should know that what he did to not involve anyone else on the ground, was heroic.

The mistake has been corrected, and I would like to thank those that pointed it out to me.
I apologize for the error,i meant no disrespect to the men and women of the Marine corps, or any other branch of the military,in reporting both of these stories,old and new.
