Footage shows the wreckage of a private jet that crashed on a road in Malaysia this afternoon - killing all eight onboard and at least two motorists.

The plane took off from the luxury holiday island Langkawi carrying VIPs but nosedived onto a highway in the town of Elmina in Shah Alam, Selangor province, just short of the airport runway at 2.49 pm local time.

It collided with a motorcycle rider killing them instantly along with a second car driver.

Security cameras at a nearby dental clinic captured the impact. A dentist working there said they were 'still traumatized by the sound of the plane passing by and crashing'.

They added: 'The sound was so loud and it shook the whole building. It was like a rocket exploding.'

Footage shows smoke billowing from the wreckage as locals rushed to help. The motorcycle rider's body was also engulfed in flames.

Onlookers said the aircraft - a Beechcraft Premier 1 with the tail number N28jV - initially crashed onto the road but continued onto the grass verge.

Resident Amahl said: 'The pilot and a passenger were dead at the scene. It crashed onto the road and then went towards the grass.'

The chartered plane was reportedly flying from the upmarket island of Langkawi to Subang when it plunged onto the road, just a short distance from the runway at the airport.

District police chief Assistant Commissioner Mohd Iqbal Ibrahim confirmed the incident.

He said the flight took off at about 2.08pm from Langkawi and was scheduled to land at the Sultan Abdul Aziz Shah Airport in Subang at 2.49pm.

Civil aviation authority chief executive Norazman Mahmud added: 'A total of six passengers and two flight crew were on board and their conditions have yet to be confirmed at press time.'

Selangor police chief Husein Omar Khan said 'No emergency call was made by the aircraft which had already been given clearance to land. The plane was two minutes away from landing.

'We have the flight manifest but we cannot disclose any details at this point in time.'
