OTTAWA - A Boeing 747 cargo jet registered in Ghana crashed and burned on takeoff from Halifax airport in the eastern Canadian province of Nova Scotia on Thursday, killing all seven crew on board, police said.

The MK Airlines jet was taking off for Spain with a cargo of seafood at 3:55 a.m. when it ran into trouble. The tail section broke off near the end of the runway before the rest of the plane smashed into a nearby rock quarry.

Television images showed firefighters working amid the plane

I heard this on the radio this morning. Very sad.

Here's a link with more specific information directly from a Halifax news service.
