Three people were killed in a plane crash near Strawberry.

An Arizona Department of Public Safety helicopter found the wreckage Saturday morning in Calf  Pen Canyon.

The student pilot and passenger were residents of the Netherlands. The flight instructor was from the Phoenix area.

An FAA spokesman says the plane apparently hit a cliff wall.

A Gila County Sheriff’s Office search and rescue team hiked to the site and determined there were no survivors.
