It has emerged that the pilot was asking for reports about the weather.
“Alright. Doesn’t sound great,” he was heard saying.
“But we’ll give it a go.”
Investigators have not yet recovered the black box, as reported by the ABC affiliate KGTV-TV.
Williams, who played for the band between 2005 and 2016, and Dave Shapiro were among the victims.
Shapiro was a music agent, as well as an avid pilot with 15 years of experience.
His death was confirmed by his talent agency, Sound Talent Group.
Cops have not identified any additional victims.
But, two other STG employees died in the crash, according to Billboard.
The jet took off from Teterboro Airport in New Jersey late on Wednesday night.
It then made a stop in Wichita, Kansas, to re-fuel.
The plane spent around an hour on the ground.
Then, it took off en route to San Diego but failed to reach its end destination.
The plane came down just two miles from its destination – the Montgomery-Gibbs Executive Airport.
Before taking to the air, the musician shared a picture of himself by the controls.
Williams’ dad told TMZ that he was goofing off.
He confirmed that his son didn’t have a pilot’s license.
Officials revealed the impact of the crash set 15 homes alight, and torched several cars.
Pictures from the scene showed debris strewn across the road.
Homes were covered in ash, while cars parked nearby were burned out.
