Apparently the plane ejected its "passenger tube" during a storm when it was attacked by an enemy plane or planes. As Piggy said about the pilot, "He couldn't land here. Not in a plane with wheels." The passenger tube crashed into the jungle, causing the scar. When Ralph asked what had happened to it Piggy replied, "That storm dragged it out to sea. It wasn't half dangerous with all them tree trunks falling. there must have been some kids still in it."

Adults signify rule and order. When adults are around, the kids behave and follow the rules. Without the presence of adults, the kids try to come up with some form of rules to follow, but it turns into mutiny and chaos.

They all died in the crash. Also, the "Beastie" is the dead body of the pilot. It doesn't explain the crash well in the beginning.
