A twin-engine Cessna Citation jet smashed into a hangar at Santa Monica Airport last night in a crash and fire officials say was "unsurvivable." The jet, arriving from an elite skiing area in Idaho, veered off the runway and crashed into a storage hangar, sparking a blaze that collapsed the hangar and damaged two other buildings, reports the Los Angeles Times. It's not clear how many people were on board the jet, which can carry a maximum of eight passengers and two crew members, the AP reports. The flames have been extinguished.
