Both...kind of. Piggy recalls fighter jets around the plane just before it crashed into the island.

In the midst of a raging war, a plane evacuating a group of schoolboys from Britain is shot down over a deserted tropical island. Two of the boys, Ralph and Piggy, discover a conch shell on the beach, and Piggy realizes it could be used as a horn to summon the other boys. Once assembled, the boys set about electing a leader and devising a way to be rescued. They choose Ralph as their leader, and Ralph appoints another boy, Jack, to be in charge of the boys who will hunt food for the entire group

The plane crashes, short and simple, although it doesn't seem that way. I didn't understand about 75% of the book, anyway. By the way, the parachuting skeleton guy Piggy finds is the pilot. He attempted to keep the plane from crashing but, unfortunately, didn't have much luck.
