A small twin-engine private plan en route to St. Petersburg, Florida, crashed right after takeoff from the Addison Municipal Airport near Dallas on Sunday morning, killing all 10 people on board. The two crew members and eight passengers have not been publicly identified. The Beechcraft BE-350 King Air plane had recently changed hands, and had previously been owned by a private charters company, the National Transportation Safety Board said. Local officials said it had just lifted off when it veered left and crashed into a hangar, bursting into flames.
