Three people were on board when the Boeing 707 went down at 5:25 p.m. Wednesday and all escaped unhurt, air station spokeswoman Terry Reid said.

The large plane was engulfed in flames and sent plumes of black smoke into the sky.

Reid says the tanker is used for fleet operations support and transporting fuel.

No further details were available.

      Believe me, it will melt as it burns. Check out any pictures taken tomorrow morning, and you’ll hardly recognize it as an airplane.
      -Glad to read that the crew got out safely. Pucker factor musta’ been around 100!

      I have to agree. jet fuel is extremely hot. So the plane is most melted. But as for 9/11 total inside job. When they fell on the foot prints no way. Plus building 7 goes down too from basically nothing come one. Not even a plane hit it.

        Uhh, everyone saw King Kong knock down building 7. Osama was riding on his back. Apparently everyone in the U.S. thinks they’re an architect or civil engineer.
