A light aircraft has crashed into an airport hangar in Texas killing all 10 people on board.

The plane, a twin-engine Beechcraft BE-350 King Air, crashed shortly after take-off at Addison Airport.

Darci Neuzil, the airport's deputy director, said the plane took off around 09:00 local time bound for Florida but veered into the hangar before bursting into flames.

Emergency services were quickly on the scene, but there were no survivors.

Two crew members and eight passengers were on board as well as a family of four were all among those killed.

Authorities have not released the identities of the victims, pending notification of next of kin.
