The AP says first responders checked the area under the flight path and did not find anyone who may have tried to jump out before the crash.
The story says that the plane had actually turned around and was headed back to the airport. Hmmm... Maybe some kind of engine problem? Also the story says that several of the passengers were learning to skydive on their first time out. They were supposed to jump in tandem with more experienced divers. In that case the newbies weren't going to jump out on their own, I wouldn't think.
