A video has captured the wreckage of a plane lying in a field outside an airport in Nevada following a mid-air collision between two aircraft that left one person dead. 

The Federal Aviation Administration said the "single-engine Globe GC-1B Swift and a single-engine Cessna 206 collided in midair near Minden-Tahoe Airport" around 10 a.m. local time on Tuesday. 

"The Globe crashed into a field. The Cessna landed at the airport. One person was on board the Globe and two people were on board the Cessna," the FAA added, noting that the "FAA and the National Transportation Safety Board will investigate." 

The Douglas County Sheriff’s Office said in a statement that "one fatality is confirmed at this time" and the airport was closed following the crash.
