More than 100 people were feared dead after a Nigerian airliner crashed during takeoff from the capital Abuja on Sunday and burst into flames at the end of the runway, media and emergency sources said, according to SPA. An airline source said there were 114 aboard, not including crew. An ambulance driver at the scene no more than five people had survived. A Reuters correspondent saw charred bodies amid the smouldering wreckage of the aircraft, operated by the Nigerian airline ADC, a popular domestic passenger airline. Only the plane's tail, an engine and part of a wing were still recognisable. State radio said there had been bad weather as the plane tried to take off. "It crash-landed after takeoff. It was an ADC aircraft from Abuja to Sokoto with over 100 people on board," a source in the National Emergency Management Agency said.
