The plane crashed close to Fullerton Municipal Airport, which is about 6 miles from Disneyland in Orange County.
Firefighters battled the inferno at the warehouse, which appeared to house textiles and sewing machines, and evacuated nearby businesses.
The single-engine plane with four seats crashed about one minute after lifting off, according to FlightAware.
It happened after multiple plane crashes and incidents around the world have air travellers on edge.
