Shocking footage shows a World War II era aircraft burning fiercely following a freeway crash before the tail falls off.
A small plane crash landed on to the busy 101 Freeway in Southern California and crumpled into the central reservation.
As Arash Rahbary travelled past the wreckage, flames licking all over the green bodywork while vehicles are directed to give the scene a wide berth.
Passing closer, Arash caught the moment the flaming tail broke and fell on to the tarmac below.
