A 10-year-old boy has suffered burns over 90 percent of his body after a small plane crashed Tuesday into his home in Florida setting at least one more house on fire.

Several other people were reportedly injured, the boy's mother among them, at the accident that has probably occurred after smoke filled up the cockpit, local media reported.

The pilot of the twin-engine Cessna 310 managed to signalise about the problem and struggled to land the machine at Orlando-Sanford International Airport .

There are no immediate reports on the total number of the passengers aboard.
