A pilot from Houston, Texas, his family and two adults from Canada died in a small plane crash in Kingston, Ont., Wednesday evening. 

Pilot Otabek Oblokulov, his wife, their children ages three, 11 and 15, and another adult couple, Bobomurod Nabiev and his wife who lived in the Toronto area, all died on board, friends of the victims told CBC News.  

Nabiev and his partner were permanent residents of Canada and originally from Uzbekistan. CBC was not able to immediately confirm her name.  

The Piper PA-32 was headed to Quebec City from Buttonville Municipal Airport in Markham, Ont., when it made contact with Kingston's flight service station and crashed northwest of the city's core sometime around 5 p.m. ET, according to the Transportation Safety Board (TSB).
