Transport safety investigators will descend on a suburban Melbourne street where a small plane crashed and burst into flames, killing its pilot and narrowly missing homes.

A 50-year-old man was found dead inside the single-engine Cessna 172 after it crashed in residential Scarlet Street at Mordialloc just after 5pm on Friday.
