(Ezra Shaw/Getty Images)\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003cp>Chairwoman Deborah Hersman also revealed that the pilots told investigators they were relying on automated cockpit equipment to control their speed during final approach, which prompts questions about whether a mistake was made in programming the \"autothrottle\" or if the equipment malfunctioned.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The plane crashed when it came in too low and slow for landing. Hersman said the pilot at the controls was only about halfway through his training on the Boeing 777 and was landing that type of aircraft at the San Francisco airport for the first time ever. And the co-pilot was on his first trip as a flight instructor.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Saturday's crash killed two people but remarkably 305 others survived, most with little or no physical injuries. A final determination on the cause of the crash is months away and Hersman cautioned against drawing any conclusions based on the information revealed so far.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Audio recordings show pilots tried to correct the plane's speed and elevation only seconds before hitting the seawall at the end of the runway, a calamitous impact that sent the fuselage bouncing and skidding across the airfield. \u003c!--more-->\u003c/p>\n\u003caside class=\"pullquote alignleft\">\u003cstrong>\u003ca href=\"http://www.c-span.org/Events/NTSB-Briefing-on-Asiana-Airline-Plane-Crash/10737440372-3/\" target=\"_blank\">Watch today's NTSB briefing\u003c/a>\u003c/strong>(CSPAN)\u003c/aside>\n\u003cp>Here is what is known: Seven seconds before impact, someone in the cockpit asked for more speed after apparently noticing that the jet was flying far slower than its recommended landing speed. A few seconds later, the yoke began to vibrate violently, an automatic warning telling the pilot the plane was losing lift and in imminent danger of an aerodynamic stall.

Hersman said the pilot at the controls was only about halfway through his training on the Boeing 777 and was landing that type of aircraft at the San Francisco airport for the first time ever.

It was the deadliest crash in Bay Area aviation history, with all 50 people aboard killed.\u003c/figcaption>\u003c/figure>\n\u003cp>Ever since midday Saturday, our attention has been riveted to what happened over a span of a few seconds at the end of Runway 28L at San Francisco International Airport. That’s when an Asiana Airlines Boeing 777 from Seoul hit the seawall at the end of the runway, vaulted briefly back into the air, did a sickening partial spin, and pancaked alongside the tarmac. Those of us who have covered the event in some small way, or followed the coverage, know the basics all too well—two teenage passengers died and 180 or so other passengers were injured, about 10 critically. The National Transportation Safety Board is investigating, and attention is focused now on why an advanced piece of machinery with four aviators on board slowed so much that some sort of accident was inevitable.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But here’s something else we all know: While the particulars of this event are unique and contain their own specific horror, this was far from the first time this kind of incident has occurred at SFO or elsewhere in the Bay Area. \u003c!--more-->As news outlets have noted, Saturday’s crash was the first serious flight incident involving commercial aircraft at San Francisco International Airport, or any other major Bay Area air terminal, since the 1960s. The last major commercial aviation incident involving a plane headed to or taking off from the Bay Area was United Flight 93, hijacked on a flight from Newark, N.J., which crashed in Pennsylvania during the Sept. 11 terrorist attacks in 2001. A little more than seven months earlier, \u003ca href=\"http://www.pbs.org/newshour/bb/transportation/jan-june00/alaskaair_2-1.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Alaska Airlines Flight 261\u003c/a> crashed along the Southern California coast while en route from Puerto Vallarta to San Francisco. All 88 people aboard died.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Beyond those relatively recent incidents, there’s an all-but-forgotten history of mishap and tragedy and occasional triumph stretching back nearly a century.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In the tragedy category: the more than two dozen commercial and military flights that crashed in the Bay Area and resulted in a loss of life. The most costly of those: the Aug. 24, 1951, crash of \u003ca href=\"http://www.check-six.com/Crash_Sites/United_Flt_615.htm\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">United Airlines Flight 615\u003c/a>, a DC-6 in the hills just north of downtown Fremont; all 50 people aboard the flight, which originated in Boston and had made stops in Cleveland and Chicago on the way to Oakland, died.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In the mishap category, the handful of flights that ended with no loss of life, the best known are: a Japan Air Lines flight that hit the water far short of SFO’s Runway 28L in 1968. All 107 passengers aboard were rescued, and one account says the DC-8 jet was eventually plucked from the bay, repaired and returned to service for decades.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>And in the triumph category: \u003ca href=\"http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pan_Am_Flight_6\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Pan Am Flight 6\u003c/a>, forced to ditch in the Pacific about halfway between Honolulu and San Francisco on October 16, 1956. The crew managed to locate a Coast Guard cutter, circle it for several hours while waiting for daylight, and then bring the plane down. All 31 people on board survived, and the incident was later the basis of the movie “\u003ca href=\"http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0051497/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Crash Landing\u003c/a>,” featuring, among others, future First Lady \u003ca href=\"http://www.imdb.com/name/nm0004864/?ref_=tt_cl_t2\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Nancy Reagan\u003c/a>.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The timeline below is based on information from Richard Kebabjian’s \u003ca href=\"http://www.planecrashinfo.com/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">PlaneCrashInfo.com.\u003c/a> The timeline includes all listed commercial aviation accidents and cargo and military flights that originated in the Bay Area and involved fatalities.

That’s when an Asiana Airlines Boeing 777 from Seoul hit the seawall at the end of the runway, vaulted briefly back into the air, did a sickening partial spin, and pancaked alongside the tarmac. Those of us who have covered the event in some small way, or followed the coverage, know the basics all too well—two teenage passengers died and 180 or so other passengers were injured, about 10 critically. The National Transportation Safety Board is investigating, and attention is focused now on why an advanced piece of machinery with four aviators on board slowed so much that some sort of accident was inevitable.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But here’s something else we all know: While the particulars of this event are unique and contain their own specific horror, this was far from the first time this kind of incident has occurred at SFO or elsewhere in the Bay Area. \u003c!--more-->As news outlets have noted, Saturday’s crash was the first serious flight incident involving commercial aircraft at San Francisco International Airport, or any other major Bay Area air terminal, since the 1960s. The last major commercial aviation incident involving a plane headed to or taking off from the Bay Area was United Flight 93, hijacked on a flight from Newark, N.J., which crashed in Pennsylvania during the Sept. 11 terrorist attacks in 2001. A little more than seven months earlier, \u003ca href=\"http://www.pbs.org/newshour/bb/transportation/jan-june00/alaskaair_2-1.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Alaska Airlines Flight 261\u003c/a> crashed along the Southern California coast while en route from Puerto Vallarta to San Francisco. All 88 people aboard died.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Beyond those relatively recent incidents, there’s an all-but-forgotten history of mishap and tragedy and occasional triumph stretching back nearly a century.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In the tragedy category: the more than two dozen commercial and military flights that crashed in the Bay Area and resulted in a loss of life. The most costly of those: the Aug. 24, 1951, crash of \u003ca href=\"http://www.check-six.com/Crash_Sites/United_Flt_615.htm\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">United Airlines Flight 615\u003c/a>, a DC-6 in the hills just north of downtown Fremont; all 50 people aboard the flight, which originated in Boston and had made stops in Cleveland and Chicago on the way to Oakland, died.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In the mishap category, the handful of flights that ended with no loss of life, the best known are: a Japan Air Lines flight that hit the water far short of SFO’s Runway 28L in 1968. All 107 passengers aboard were rescued, and one account says the DC-8 jet was eventually plucked from the bay, repaired and returned to service for decades.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",

The two passengers killed and most of those critically injured were sitting near the rear of the plane. The agency is interviewing the crew today and will also conduct a seat-by-seat analysis to determine injury patterns.\u003c/li>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cli>The NTSB also said that part of the tail section was found in the bay, and debris from the seawall was carried several hundred feet down the runway, suggesting that the plane hit the seawall.\u003c/li>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cli>At a separate press conference, Assistant Deputy Fire Chief Dale Carnes, referring to reports that an emergency vehicle might have struck one of the two teenage girls who died in the accident, said that \"there was a possibility\" that she \"might have been contacted by one of our apparatus at one point during the incident.\" Carnes said the incident was under investigation and could not comment further.\u003c/li>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cli>NTSB Chair Deborah Hersman said her agency is investigating the incident and that the coroner had not yet issued a report on the death.

She said most of the passengers already had exited but five had to be extricated or aided, including someone who was stuck between the seats and other non-ambulatory passengers. Emmons said fire and smoke conditions worsened in the time they were on the plane.\u003c/li>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cli>Lt. Dave Monteverdi, who had also run up the chute, said someone had to be extricated after one of the bulkheads fell on top of him.\u003c/li>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cli>When the firefighters entered the plane, they were surprised to find San Francisco police Officer Jim Cunningham already there, not wearing any protective equipment. Several of the public safety officers who spoke gave him a special shout-out for heroism. Police Lt. Gaetano Caltagirone also entered the plane, following Cunningham. \"I couldn't let him go inside the plane and just be there by himself,\" he said. Cunningham said that later, outside the plane, he picked up a couple of iPhones because they contained photos he thought could be the \"last memories somebody had of someone.\"\u003c/li>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cli>Cunningham said that earlier, outside the plane, he and another officer had passed their knives to flight attendants, who used them to cut passengers out of their seatbelts.\u003c/li>\n\u003c/ul>\n\u003cp>Here is \u003ca href=\"http://youtu.be/bIMiTjFKre4\" target=\"_blank\">Lt.

Only a small number were critically injured.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Investigators said Asiana Airlines Flight 214 was traveling \"significantly below\" the target speed during its approach and that the crew tried to abort the landing just before it smashed onto the runway. What they don't yet know is whether the pilot's inexperience with the Boeing 777 and at San Francisco's airport played a role. Officials said the probe will also focus on whether the airport or plane's equipment also could have malfunctioned.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The South Korea government said officials will inspect engines and landing equipment on all Boeing 777 planes owned by Asiana and Korean Air, the national carrier.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Investigators said the weather was unusually fair for foggy San Francisco. The winds were mild, too. During the descent, with their throttles set to idle, the pilots never discussed having any problems with the plane or its positioning until it was too late.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Firefighters said they encountered smoke, leaking jet fuel and passengers coming down on chutes when they arrived. Lt. Christine Emmons said Monday at the news conference that she and her partner ran up a chute into the plane and found four passengers trapped in the back. The conditions in the plane were changing rapidly, with the fire coming down on rescuers and the smoke thickening as the trapped passengers were pulled out to safety, she said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Seven seconds before the Boeing 777 struck down, a member of the flight crew made a call to increase the jet's lagging speed, National Transportation Safety Board chief Deborah Hersman said at a briefing based on the plane's cockpit and flight data recorders. Three seconds later came a warning that the plane was about to stall. Just 2 1/2 seconds later, the crew tried to abort the landing and go back up for another try. The air traffic controller guiding the plane heard the crash that followed almost instantly, Hersman said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>While investigators from both the U.S. and South Korea are in the early stages of an investigation that will include a weeks-long examination of the wreckage and alcohol tests for the crew, the news confirmed what survivors and other witnesses had reported: a slow-moving airliner flying low to the ground.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"We are not talking about a few knots\" difference between the aircraft's target landing speed of 137 knots, or 157 mph (250 kph), and how fast it was going as it came in for a landing, Hersman said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Pilots normally try to land at the target speed, in this case 137 knots, plus an additional 5 more knots, said Bob Coffman, an American Airlines captain who has flown 777s. He said the briefing raises an important question: \"Why was the plane going so slow?\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The airline said Monday in Seoul that the pilot at the controls had little experience flying that type of plane and was landing one for the first time at that airport.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Asiana spokeswoman Lee Hyomin said that Lee Gang-guk, who was at the controls, had nearly 10,000 hours flying other planes but only 43 in the 777, a plane she said he still was getting used to flying. Another pilot on the flight, Lee Jeong-min, had about 12,390 hours of flying experience, including 3,220 hours on the 777, according to the Ministry of Land, Infrastructure and Transport in South Korea. Lee was the deputy pilot, tasked with helping Lee Gang-guk get accustomed to the 777, according to Asiana Airlines.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Two other pilots were aboard, with teams rotating at the controls.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The plane's Pratt & Whitney engines were on idle and the pilots were flying under visual flight rules, Hersman said. Under visual flight procedures in the Boeing 777, a wide-body jet, the autopilot would typically have been turned off while the automatic throttle, which regulates speed, would have been on until the plane had descended to 500 feet (150 meters) in altitude, Coffman said. At that point, pilots would normally check their airspeed before switching off the autothrottle to continue a \"hand fly\" approach, he said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>There was no indication in the discussions between the pilots and the air traffic controllers that there were problems with the aircraft.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Survivors and rescuers said it was nothing less than astonishing that nearly everyone survived after a frightful scene of fire burning inside the fuselage, pieces of the aircraft scattered across the runway and people fleeing for their lives.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In the first comments on the crash by a crew member, cabin manager Lee Yoon-hye said that seconds before impact she felt that something was wrong.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"Right before touchdown, I felt like the plane was trying to take off. I was thinking 'what's happening?' and then I felt a bang,\" Lee told reporters Sunday night in San Francisco. \"That bang felt harder than a normal landing. It was a very big shock. Afterward, there was another shock and the plane swayed to the right and to the left.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>She said that during the evacuation, two inflatable slides that were supposed to inflate toward the outside instead inflated toward the inside of the plane, hurting two Asiana flight attendants. Pilots came to rescue the flight attendants but even after getting injured, she said that the crew did not leave the plane until after the passengers evacuated. She said she was the last one to go.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>South Korea's Ministry of Land, Infrastructure and Transport said the 291 passengers included 141 Chinese, 77 South Koreans, 64 Americans, three Canadians, three Indians, one Japanese, one Vietnamese and one person from France.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The two dead passengers have been identified as students from China — 16 and 17 years old — who were scheduled to attend summer camp in California with dozens of classmates. Hospital officials said Sunday that two of the people who remained hospitalized in critical condition were paralyzed with spinal injuries, while another two showed \"road rash\" injuries consistent with being dragged.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Foucrault, the coroner, said one of the bodies was found on the tarmac near where the plane's tail broke off when it slammed into the runway. The other was found on the left side of the plane about 30 feet (10 meters) away from where the jetliner came to rest after it skidded down the runway. Foucrault said an autopsy he expects to be completed by Monday will involve determining whether the second girl's death was caused by injuries suffered in the crash or \"a secondary incident.\"\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>He said he did not get a close enough look at the victims on Saturday to know whether they had external injuries.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>The flight originated in Shanghai, China, and stopped over in Seoul, South Korea, before making the nearly 11-hour trip to San Francisco.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>When the plane hit the ground, oxygen masks dropped down, said Xu Da, a product manager at an Internet company in Hangzhou, China, who was sitting with his wife and teenage son near the back of the plane. He stood up and saw sparking — perhaps from exposed electrical wires — and a gaping hole through the back of the plane where its galley was torn away along with the tail.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Xu and his family escaped through the opening. Once on the tarmac, they watched the plane catch fire, and firefighters hose it down.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In the chaotic moments after the landing, when baggage was tumbling from the overhead bins onto passengers and people all around her were screaming, Wen Zhang grabbed her 4-year-old son, who hit the seat in front of him and broke his leg.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Spotting a hole at the back of the jumbo jet where the bathroom had been, she carried her boy to safety.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"I had no time to be scared,\" she said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Nearby, people who escaped were dousing themselves with water from the bay, possibly to cool burn injuries, authorities said.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad floatright]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>By the time the flames were out, much of the top of the fuselage had burned away.

The two passengers killed and most of those critically injured were sitting near the rear of the plane. The agency is interviewing the crew today and will also conduct a seat-by-seat analysis to determine injury patterns.\u003c/li>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cli>The NTSB also said that part of the tail section was found in the bay, and debris from the seawall was carried several hundred feet down the runway, suggesting that the plane hit the seawall.\u003c/li>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cli>At a separate press conference, Assistant Deputy Fire Chief Dale Carnes, referring to reports that an emergency vehicle might have struck one of the two teenage girls who died in the accident, said that \"there was a possibility\" that she \"might have been contacted by one of our apparatus at one point during the incident.\" Carnes said the incident was under investigation and could not comment further.\u003c/li>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cli>NTSB Chair Deborah Hersman said her agency is investigating the incident and that the coroner had not yet issued a report on the death. She said the agency is reviewing video related to the incident, which she said was inconclusive.\u003c/li>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cli>Lt. Crissy Emmons of the San Francisco Fire Department, one of the first public safety officers to respond to the crash, described applying foam to put out fire coming from an engine and underneath the fuselage, then running up one of the rescue chutes.\u003c/li>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cli>Having entered the plane, Emmons and another firefighter, Mike Kirk, used a fire hose to extinguish flames. She said most of the passengers already had exited but five had to be extricated or aided, including someone who was stuck between the seats and other non-ambulatory passengers. Emmons said fire and smoke conditions worsened in the time they were on the plane.\u003c/li>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cli>Lt. Dave Monteverdi, who had also run up the chute, said someone had to be extricated after one of the bulkheads fell on top of him.\u003c/li>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cli>When the firefighters entered the plane, they were surprised to find San Francisco police Officer Jim Cunningham already there, not wearing any protective equipment. Several of the public safety officers who spoke gave him a special shout-out for heroism. Police Lt. Gaetano Caltagirone also entered the plane, following Cunningham. \"I couldn't let him go inside the plane and just be there by himself,\" he said. Cunningham said that later, outside the plane, he picked up a couple of iPhones because they contained photos he thought could be the \"last memories somebody had of someone.\"\u003c/li>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cli>Cunningham said that earlier, outside the plane, he and another officer had passed their knives to flight attendants, who used them to cut passengers out of their seatbelts.\u003c/li>\n\u003c/ul>\n\u003cp>Here is \u003ca href=\"http://youtu.be/bIMiTjFKre4\" target=\"_blank\">Lt.

The crash killed all 49 people on board and one man in a house.\u003c/span>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad floatright]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp> \u003c/p>\n\n",

The crash killed all 49 people on board and one man in a house.\u003c/span>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",
