Been reading about that one had some video just before it took off on social media. Looks like the PIC is low time purchased it in this year one picture shows the PIC and a friend says first cross country flight kind of early to figure out what happend but low time night take off lot of distractions with 6 people on board something was missed. Was looking to see if anyone had tower recording here.  http://www.kathrynsreport.com/2018/04/piper-pa-24-comanche-n9456p-fatal.html

Around Minute 15:50 air traffic control asks if aircraft is experiencing difficulties and pilot responded they are having a training lesson. (So co-pilot was flying?) 30 seconds later communication cuts mid sentence.

I listen to the radio traffic sounded like he was little confused he says something the tower asked for his call sign since they were from Vegas wonder if there was any alcohol or drug use talk about going to party.
