The wreckage was found 165 miles northwest of Monterrey. Flight history data from FlightAware.com shows the Challenger's flight track ending in the vicinity of rain showers, with a strong cell plotted some 20 statute miles northeast of the flight track. One hour and 31 minutes into the flight, the radar track shows the Challenger climbing from FL370 and slowing, with a maximum recorded altitude of 40,500 feet. Radar contact is lost at the 1-hour, 44-minute mark. Controllers lost radio contact with the flight around that time.

BoxerSaul "Canelo" Alvarez said on Twitter, "I deeply lament the terrible accident of the plane coming from Vegas. I'm deeply grateful for the support of all the people who travel to see my fights. My prayers are with their families."
