One is believed to have died when the plane caught fire after its wing hit the high-voltage overhead power line at the Ovaakca Natural Gas Cycle Power Plant.
The other is believed to have been ejected from the aircraft to their death, said Bursa Mayor Alinur Aktas.
What caused the plane to fly into the 380,000-volt line is currently under investigation.
Local media reported that Burcu had told her parents that morning that she was leaving home in search of a job.
They were unaware she had boarded the flight until they were informed of her death by authorities in a phone call.
Burcu and Hakan have since been buried in different cemeteries in Bursa and autopsy reports are yet to be made public.
As well as her grieving parents, Burcu – who had previously run a hair salon with her partner – also leaves behind two older sisters and a brother.
