A small business jet crashed while taking off from Van Nuys Airport in California.
The wreckage of the plane has been seen smoldering in a field near the San Fernando Valley airport.
The Cessna Citation twin-engine crashed as it was leaving the airport in the Los Angeles suburbs, Federal Aviation Administration spokesman Ian Gregor said.
It was heading to Long Beach, about 25 miles south of Los Angeles.
