All three aboard the plane were later confirmed dead.
The plane, identified by FAA records as a twin-engine Beechcraft built in 1974, took off from San Carlos Airport near Redwood City at 10:11 p.m. Saturday, according to the San Francisco Chronicle, and was last seen on radar at 10:37 p.m., according to flight tracking website FlightAware.
It had last completed the 23-minute jaunt from Monterey to San Carlos July 18.
The doomed flight crashed near Point Pinos Lighthouse in Pacific Grove, not far from where folk singer-songwriter and aviation enthusiast John Denver fatally crashed his homebuilt Rutan Long-EZ plane in October, 1997.
