Boeing 737 crashes, pilots rescued
737 Cargo jet crashes several miles away from the coast of Oahu, Hawaii, following an emergency. Both pilots are rescued alive. One pilot was taken to a trauma center and the second is on a rescue boat heading to a fire station, according to an official.
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. The cause of the crash is yet not clear and is being investigated by The FAA and National Transportation Safety Board.
