At Tokyo's Haneda airport, a Japan Airlines aircraft carrying 379 passengers caught fire on the runway following a collision with a coast guard aircraft. Tuesday at Tokyo's Haneda Airport, a passenger plane and a Japanese Coast Guard aircraft crashed and caught fire on the runway.
Before the entire aircraft was consumed by fire, Tetsuo Saito, the minister of transportation, verified that all 379 passengers aboard Japan Airlines flight JAL-516 had safely evacuated. Five crew members perished, while the coast guard plane's pilot managed to escape, according to Saito.
A significant fire and smoke explosion was captured on local TV footage of the Japan Airlines aircraft as it taxied after landing. Then, there was a fire in the vicinity of the wing. An hour later, footage revealed the airliner entirely on fire. According to Kyodo, the Coast Guard aircraft was scheduled to travel to Niigata to give relief supplies to those impacted by the tragedy. The incident occurred just one day after a series of earthquakes shook western Japan, killing over 50 people in the Ishikawa prefecture.
