Just from memory (so let's hope this is right), Phillip found out that
Ross knew he was alive and was looking for him, arranged for a
mechanic to tamper with Ross' plane, so that Ross would be delayed.
Rick made the payoff. It backfired when Ross went up in the plane
anyway, maybe because the mechanic didn't do something quite right,
maybe the problem only looked like a glitch or something. Anyway,
Phillip and Rick are both culpable. But no body was found, so there
was always the possibility of a return.


Wow, that's pretty appalling, actually.

So, how do people know this is what happened--how do they know Phillip
(and Rick) were responsible for the plane crash and that it wasn't
just standard mechanical failure?

Everyone in town found out at the same time, basically, during the
scenes when Beth lost her first baby with Alan.

From SoapCentral:
Impressed with Beth's ability to stand up to him, Alan suddenly kissed
her passionately and asked her to marry him again on a private island
resort at San Gabriel. Deeply touched by Alan?s words of love and
remorse, Beth kissed him passionately. Just then Harley and Gus burst
in demanding to know if Phillip was alive! Armed with a photo of
Phillip, Harley told a shocked Beth that Ross knew Phillip was alive
and wanted to bring him home. Attempting to get to Phillip, his plane
went down. The truth finally out, Alan repeated the confession he'd
given over a year ago--yes, Phillip was alive. But he hadn't heard
from him since the doctors refused treatment. Also there was Jeffrey
who explained that Phillip hired someone to make sure Ross didn't find
him by tampering with Ross's plane and that person could be charged
with accessory to murder.

The revelation that Alan lied to her to get her to marry him became
too much and Beth collapsed. Beth was then shocked when Rick confessed
that he?d known Phillip was alive for almost a year and kept it quiet
at Phillip?s request. Rick tried to explain that Phillip was still
unstable and he did what Phillip asked in order to protect his son.
That same day, Beth miscarried her baby. Meanwhile, Rick visited her
and, calling upon their friendship, pleaded with her to forgive him.
Beth refused to grant forgiveness and went one step further: she
called Dr. Grant, telling him what Rick had done. Rick was then
dismissed from the hospital.
