from the extent of the fire, it looks like the pilot may have had some kind of accelerant on the plane. A small plane like that should not cause a fire that extensive, imho. It looks like the fire spread 100’s of feet horizontally to me, which seems unusual.

Would a plane do that if it was fully topped with fuel? I do think it seems pretty strange.

Yes, it looks like the whole interior is ablaze. A "small plane" like a Cessna 182 wouldn't do that. It must've been a larger aircraft, maybe something like a Gulfstream or Learjet.

Yes - my though as well - appears to be way too much building fire for such as small plane
