A Boeing K-707 tanker operated by Omega Aerial Refuelling Services has crashed taking off from Naval Air Station Point Mugu in California, but media reports said the three-person crew escaped without injury.
A video clip on the website of Los Angeles ABC news affiliate KABC-TV showed a 707 burning at the end of runway, the Omega logo clearly visible on the tail. A report quoting an Air Station spokesman said the aircraft was carrying 150,000 pounds of jet fuel.
A number of fire fighting agencies as well as a helicopter were called on to douse the blaze.
