  • Passengers on board the passenger jet recorded their miracle escape from death after a horrific collision on the runway of Haneda airport in Tokyo.
    The JAL Airbus was engulfed in flames as it landed after colliding with a small coastguard plane. All 379 passengers and 12 crew on board the airliner survived the disaster.
    5 people on the coastguard plane died in the accident. The small plane had been en route to deliver aid to victims of Japan’s earthquake in the country’s Nota peninsula.
    Shortly after the passenger jet was evacuated it was overcome by fire. The authorities have begun an urgent investigation into how the two planes came to collide.
    Clive Myrie presents BBC News at Ten reporting by Suranjana Tewari in Tokyo.

    この便の真ん中辺りに兄貴と嫁さんが乗っていたそうです。
    仕事でよく飛行機に乗るので最初の衝撃でヤバいと思ったそうです。
    乗客は先を争ったり、パニックのような怒号もなくCAさんの指示に従っていたそうです。
    荷物は持てず財布とスマホだけで脱出したそうです。
    私はまさかこれに乗っていたとは思わず、兄から電話をもらった時に何を言っているのか分かりませんでした。

They were helpful heroes and it's tragic that some oversight caused this accident. Airports are very difficult to keep safe. I imagine this airport is very busy as it is in Tokyo. I understand the air traffic control jobs in these sorts of airports are like S+ level of difficulty.
    It's amazing how well the crew and systems of the passenger jet worked to get everyone off safely. The picture of the burning plane had me scared that this was one of those crashes that killed everyone on both aircrafts.

And thank god everyone remain calm and remain at their seats until told to evacuate by the crew.. lastly thank god the crew and pilot are well train and know their thing.. hence everyone got out safely and quickly..

    A great testament to the airliner's crew in effecting a swift evacuation and the emergency crews on the ground doing their bit professionally and expeditiously. I recently read about the Saudi L-1011 that returned to the airport after an in-flight fire in 1980. Several minutes after landing the firemen were standing around watching the plane burn because the engines were still running and they couldn't approach. When they finally did gain entry after some twenty minutes the aircraft flashed over and nobody escaped alive. It's a sign of how far we've come in terms of safely evacuating, no doubt further enhanced by the efficiency of the Japanese people. RIP to those onboard the Coastguard aircraft.

      As an Englishman, I can respond to you with this: Kind words are often EMPTY WORDS! Your nation's aviation industry is the embodiment of pure, uncut incompetence and malicious complacency. And these empty platitudes fundamentally DISTRACT from the truth of the matter. That self-evident truth is that Japan's safety record is just as stagnant and FUBAR as its economy and population.

    It is not a miracle that all passengers survived, but thanks to the precise actions of the cabin crew.
    The cabin crew had judged the exits that could be opened in a cabin engulfed in flames, and had given precise instructions to escape without their luggage. As the telephone lines to the cockpit were disconnected, the cabin crew in the back seat had to use their own judgement to determine an escape route. In the end, three of the eight escape exits were usable. Finally, the captain took a final look around the cabin and evacuated the few remaining passengers before making the final escape. It was not a miracle, but it was brave.
