The two planes involved in the crash were single-engine aircrafts, a Diamond DA20C1 and a Beech F33A.

The county is located about 45 miles west of Atlanta.

They found a man who appeared to be naked except for a torn pair of boxer-briefs he was holding around his buttocks.

A Chattanooga woman was killed Wednesday when a plane she was in collided with another small plane midair in western Georgia.

The cause of the deadly collision was under investigation. Witnesses said both planes appeared to be in a landing pattern.

One of the planes was a training aircraft.

No one survived the crash.

Benefield did not immediately return phone and email messages from The Associated Press. One was based in College Park, and the other was believed to have had a flight instructor on board. None of the dead had been identified Wednesday afternoon, the fire chief said. One of the planes was coming from the Falcon Aviation Academy in Newnan.
