Do more U.S. airports need control towers? That's one of the questions that has arisen following a midair collision at an airport in southern Arizona last week.

At least two people have died after two small single-engine planes collided midair Wednesday morning at an Arizona airport, officials said.

The crash at the Marana Regional Airport, about 21 miles northwest of Tucson, is the second fatal aviation mishap this month in Arizona.

A midair collision involving two small planes in southern Arizona killed two people Wednesday morning, authorities said.

Tens of thousands of planes take off, land and perform touch-and-goes at the Marana Regional Airport in southern Arizona every year. Without an air traffic control tower, it's a calculated dance that requires communication by pilots.
