No, you're not imagining. That black scar just below the mountain top is the burn site. It looked like a much larger area when it was burning in the dark last night.

While driving east on Cactus this afternoon I thought I could see the burn mark near the ridgeline of the McDowells where the plane went down.  Anyone else in sight of the mountains see the same thing, or am I imagining?
