The crash happened less than 4.8 kilometres from Northeast Philadelphia Airport, which primarily serves business jets and charter flights.
A small plane crashed in Northeast Philadelphia, US, 30 seconds after it took off as crews respond to a fiery scene, Pennsylvania's governor said.
He said it felt like a mini earthquake and when he checked his home security camera footage, he said it looked like a missile was coming down.Flight data showed a small jet taking off from the airport at 6.06pm and disappearing from radar about 30 seconds later after climbing to an altitude of 500m.
One cellphone video taken by a witness moments after the plane crashed showed a chaotic scene with debris scattered across the intersection.
