Boeing 737 cargo jet crashes into sea off Honolulu, Hawaii
A Boeing 737 cargo plane with two people on board has crashed off the coast of Hawaii after reportedly experiencing engine trouble.
The aircraft was en route from Honolulu to the island of Maui, but went down in the water soon after take off, just two miles (3km) from Kalaeloa Airport.
Footage broadcast by NBC shows a man thought to be one of the pilots being taken away in a wheelchair. He appears to be conscious.
ABC News journalist Alex Stone reported that one pilot is critically injured in intensive care, while the other, "lesser injured" pilot was being taken back to shore by a Coast guard rescue boat.
Flight tracking website Flightradar24 tweeted that it was a 737-200 cargo aeroplane operated for the carrier Transair since 2014. It was built in 1975 and first delivered to Pacific Western Airlines.
Transair Flight 810 left Honolulu bound for Kahului at 01:33 local time (11:33 GMT), Flightradar 24 said, but turned back quickly afterwards, and crashed into the water after just minutes in the air.
