As stated above being able to use the front facing exit slides reduced angle so people were able to get to tarmac quickly without injury and away from aircraft without injury to ankles from landing at bottom. Rip to the poor coast guard crew. Airport crashes like this are entirely avoidable but errors on runways do occur rarely. In US the best misses are often on landing and takeoff. A jet may be passing a runway at an angle as another plane attempts landing. It's not easy to keep planes in the sky lined up for landing. Air traffic control has a very difficult high stress job. The coast guard plane was told to hold before the runway. Very sad week for Japan. A lot of disaster. Plus tv news love this video so the public sees it over and over. We just had a big building fire in our town on main Street and it's all anyone can talk about, They are all shocked.
It’s also a testament to Japan Airlines which ever since a major loss of life in a crash in 1985 has massively emphasised safety training and is well known in the industry as the foremost proponent of rigorous continued training of all flight crew in safety measures- so much so that other airlines even regarded Japan Airlines as being ‘over the top’ about it. Well this proves how right Japan Airlines was.
I am extremely impressed that's for sure... But... This plane was full of Japanese people. They have discipline, high IQ and a low average BMI. How would this have gone if the plane was full of Americans ? Or half drunk Europeans on their way to Ibiza...
I've always regarded the Japanese as a highly disciplined people, typically respecting authority and well versed in obeying orders.Virtues sadly absent in many nations today.
Massive respect to Airbus and JAL for designing a plane and operating procedures that enabled an evacuation in such a serious crash with no injuries. And even more so to the crew for understanding and implementing them flawlessly.
@@James78mThe cause of the fire is a runway collision, though. The fire spread slowly enough for the passengers to escape, which is a testament to A350's safety.
@@James78m good sir, the plane survived long enough for everyone to evacuate? Typically planes aren't designed to be reused after colliding face first into another plane. Pray tell, are you the kind of person who re-uses bicycle helmets after a crash?
The loss of the crew, especially given that they were heading to help with the earthquake rescue, is heartbreaking. My deepest condolences to their family and friends. On the other hand, I have unbounded admiration for the cabin crew. They are absolute heroes and have my greatest respect. Also I have admiration for the passengers who acted calmly, following the rules. I have seen far too many videos of people coming down escape chutes clutching their carry on bags - things which took time to retrieve, holding up other passengers in their turn. Such selfish actions have lead to the deaths of the last to get near to the door. The rest of the world needs to pay attention to the orderly way, respectful of fellow passengers, these people acted.
Modern passenger jets are designed to be more fire resistant and so the fire spreaded a lot slower than previous iterations, giving the passengers and crews that prescious several minutes more to spare. Of course the cooperative passengers and the professionalism of the cabin crew should get the credits.
These innovations were made because of previous accidents (Saudia L-1011 in 1980 burst into flames, landed back in the airport but plane burned too fast and the crew were slow to react causing all 301 occupants on board to perish) These innovations are made to prevent such events like that from happening again, and also improved training for upcoming crew to further prevent it.
The crew should be rewarded for the great job they did to save the lives of all the passengers in no time. N those who died including the five coast guard may their souls rest in peace Amen 🙏
This is the first crash on an A350 is believe, and it was very nice to see that the engineers made the plane well enough to allow everyone to get off quickly!
The ending statement is very true. Been hearing about even ATC’s and how mid air collisions are closer to happening. As there are a ton of near misses already happened and we only hear of some of them. Bravo to the flight crew and the a350.
"The only a matter of time" phrase is true in all accidents. It was only a matter of time before the lifeboats requirements from the British Board of Trade would result in a massive loss of life, and it did in April 1912 when RMS Titanic sank (at the same time it was only a matter of time before a liner would collide with an iceberg). If you wait for long enough every cause for an accident will occur at least once.
ATC had no fault in this accident, the coast-guards did not follow ATC’s instructions to stay off the runway. Pilots most of the time are all on one frequency and listening to ATC managing other planes around them. Had they been listening or looking around, they would’ve understood that the A350 was inbound for landing.
Bit of eerie coincidence: The coast guard plane was a Bombardier Dash-8 built in 2009, and had also been present at Sendai airport when that got flooded by the tsunami caused by the 2011 Tohoku earthquake. The only plane there that could still be repaired, now found its end flying aid missions for yet another earthquake.
there was some luck in that they were able to use the front exits so the escape slides were not as steep an angle. Use of the escape slides often results in leg/ankle injuries. This shows how important it is to read the safety card and listen to the safety brief EVERY time you fly. Even if you fly all the time, running through how to escape the aircraft when you board means it will be much fresher in your mind if you need to evacuate. Much more so than when you heard it a week ago when you last flew. What a tribute to how safe the aviation industry is!! The ATC tapes will tell quite a bit but the thing to remember is that the aviation industry knows that all humans make mistakes and these incidents are always down to a chain of events so it won't be one of the pilots fault and don't believe anyone who tells you otherwise as they are just se4nsationalising a tragic event which is the real wrong doing in this scenario
Doing safety drills drastically increase safe escape in a serious incident where people tend to panic. The Japanese schools along coast do earthquake drills l: head for higher land, do not go home, do not look for family, just go to higher ground immediately. It had a big impact during the last devastating tsunami because young people drilled in what to do did so. Airplane safety instructions save lives as this latest emergency exit proved. Great advice.
I read that placard in detail. Another fact of the emergency slide it that you can get friction burns on your hiney if you're not wearing jeans. When you're flying, you're on a kind of spaceship with only your fellow man as a friend so act accordingly.
When US Air flt 1493 collided with a SkyWest plane at LAX it was mysterious to me that there was no ground radar specifically there to sound alarms and prevent this sort of thing. And that was in 1991. I don't get it.
There are always safety taken for a reason before taking off in an aircraft and this is one of it. Glad that most of the people on that aircraft made it out safely.
The crew (and the passengers) of the 350 deserve a lot of praise for getting those people off so quickly. Certainly does confirm the 90s rule regards to how quickly the fire spreads on an aircraft
This is a testament to the amazing engineering work by Airbus, the A350 incredible structural design and rigidity performed remarkably, allowing to come to a safe stop even after being hit by another aircraft while landing. That amazing composite design allowed the evacuation of all passengers safely. Well done Airbus!
Yep, similar passenger evacuations elsewhere and the passengers were tkaing their luggage with them, kept their high heels on the slide. Thankfully this was a flight to Japan with presumably majority Japanese Passengers, so helps as they’re more group oriented instead of selfish.
May the lost souls rest peacefully and may the surviving pilot recover well. ❤ Much gratitude for the aid and the swift response by the Haneda ground services. 👏 Incredible that all passenger and crew survived from the A350, a very well executed evacuation procedure by the JAL flight crew. 👏
ATC recordings seem to indicate the coast guard plane lined up after passing taxiway C5, instead of holding short of the runway. Sadly, the Dash-8 seems to not have ADS reporting, was dark, and was exactly at the touchdown point where the A350 did land, so they probably did not even see it or understand what just happened.
The passengers remained calm, avoiding panic and overcrowding at the exits. While there was a partial panic, surrounding passengers encouraged composure. Everyone patiently awaited the flight attendants' instructions, leading to a smooth evacuation. It set a remarkable precedent for handling emergencies.
I’m Japanese. My heart was broken when I watched the video taken by a passenger, where a little girl is saying panickingly, "Let us get off the plane right now！" Then I was relived to hear that all passengers and crew were safe. Thank you so much for all of your support.
Amazing job all around. The crew, the passengers, if anyone or everyone had panicked, the outcome likely would have been different. How terrible the honorable men of the Japanese coast guard lost. I pray for mercy on their families in the sad time. If there is anything about Japanese investigations that can be said, it will be through, complete, and the will figure out what happened.
They have been hit incredibly hard! Have to be thankful for other plane with almost 400 made it out! None of them have survived unharmed! Mental and physical! Those that have moved on I praying for your loved ones! Thank you for your services!
This is truley amazing. As far as i have seen there where 2 or 3 emergency exits used, but the plane has actually eight of these. To bring something like 380 People out in such a short time shows the efficency of the crew but also the way the plane has been designed. This is the first airplane involved into a crash, which is built to a high proportion of carbon fiber structure. It will be interesting how far this helped the plane not to break apart. This could have been the seccond deadliest plane crash in over 120 years of aviation history. Applause to the flight crew and the designers at airbus, and may the souls of the coast guard crew people.
In America, 90% of the passengers would've died trying to get their crap in the overhead bins or taking selfies..well done Japanese people you continue to be the model of the way to do things
That, my friends, is the first A350 crash in human history. I also have to give credit to the engineers and the plane's architects for saving everyone by making the design more safer. May those 5 souls live long and prosper.
Japan has an orderly culture. It is in their nature it properly evacuate a burning plane. Had that crash happened almost anywhere else in the world, there'd have been fatalities.
@@hannah60000 if you Google "airplane near misses New York times 2023" you should be able to find the article that's gotten a decent amount of attention recently. I saw it off a video but don't remember. PBS speculates that the cause is the lack of personnel due to layoffs during the quarantine but high returning passenger traffic.
The fact that those passengers survived is a testament to an industry pushing for safety at every turn. No method of transportation is safer than commercial planes per distance traveled.
According to the Japan Coast Guard, the controller gave the JAL plane permission to land, but instructed the Japan Coast Guard plane to proceed to a stopping point in front of the runway, without giving permission to enter the runway.
@@user-tz1mr9hx2f It was at night. On the footage you see nothing. Usually a plane entering an active runway should have both the rotating beacon and the strobe lights on. It should be close to impossible to miss it. I say usually, because you see nothing on the footage. No lights whatsoever. Edit: on second look, seems like their might be a taxi light in the dark.
@@DaGuys470 and before they entering the runway they didn’t see the Airbus is coming to their way? They have to check left and right before entering the runway right?
@@user-tz1mr9hx2f It was already night at Haneda Airport and it was dark, and since the Japan Coast Guard aircraft was smaller than the Airbus, the pilots could not confirm its presence when landing, and by the time they realized they were about to go around, it was already too late, and it is believed they collided.
What brilliantly trained staff to evacuate such a large aircraft, on fire, with injured passengers and zero loss of life!! (BTW BBC, please know that the "rear" of the aircraft is at the back - every shot shows the flames coming from the front / mid of the aircraft where it struck the coast guard aircraft 🥲)
@@alanbiancardi2531 Do you live in Japan? If not rather just keep your way of disgust and zero sympathy towards others to yourself mate. Your day will come! The Country is called Japan, not IT! You will be next in line and then we shall see what you have to comment!
@@alanbiancardi2531 Be that as it may, the chances of a 100% survival rate for a passenger jet incident like this is astoundingly low. I haven't watched much news lately; I have a passing interest in aviation however, so I've made an effort to pay some closer attention to this, and it's quite something. Now, if such similar incidents were happening in America, I'm sure there'd be some theatrics from there.
The aircraft melted because of the carbon fibre used in its construction. Whilst carbon fibre is strong it has a much lower melting point compared to aluminium. The flight recorders would have been mounted in the rear of the fuselage and are designed to survive many hours in a fire.
@waynej747....Because airplanes are constructed solely from carbon fiber now? Are you saying there was no aluminum used in either aircraft? Or that the aluminum used, didn't melt?
@@codymoe4986 looking at the wreckage of both aircraft it appears that both aircraft burnt quite hot, likely melting the aluminium components as well. The DH-8 wouldn’t have been helped by the fact it was probably loaded with fuel in preparation for its departure. I wonder how much fuel the A350 was still carrying?
The amazing thing is that in 1:35 into the video you can see most of the passengers calmly walking away from the burning aircraft? Presumably they had been instructed to do so... but I would probably have run like hell to distance myself from any coming explosion!
The crew of course did a good job but the main reason was because the passengers followed orders well. If this happened anywhere else I don't think it would be so easy.
Imagine this happened in America. Every man for themselves, fighting to get off ASAP. Causing even more panic and slowing departure even more. Clown culture.
It’s part of the reason for sure. People keep playing up Japan being a “disciplined” society, but following instructions lead by a well-trained cabin crew was the crunch and crucial aspect here.
True, in many uncivilized people this could have been difficult to escape, people trying to get their suitcases and stuff like the crash that took place last year.
Three possible explanations: 1) a mistake by ATC, 2) a mistake by the A350 landing on the wrong runway and 3) a mistake by the coastguard aircraft which was on the wrong runway...
I have no doubt the fault will be with the coast guard aircraft. If the JAL plane was approaching and landing on the wrong runway ATC would have noticed. The smaller coast guard plane almost for sure entered the runway without permission and was just harder to see by ATC. I don't think ATC even noticed the coast plane was where it was - or they would have aborted the JAL plane landing. The pilot survives, at least so far and thankfully, but he is most likely going to have serious survivors remorse and some serious questions to answer to.
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.
At 1:24 you can clearly see the no 2 engine (right side) of the aircraft was still producing enough thrust that it was sucking up items and spitting them out the back plus whipping up flames in the process. You can also see the same damage to the no 2 engine cowling as the no 1 (left side) has and that with the radome (nose) damage paints the picture that the Dash-8-300 was lined on the runway when it was struck from behind and rolled over by the much larger A350. That huge fireball was caused by fuel in both wings of the Dash-8-300 being suddenly ignited as it was run over and ripped apart.
May have been the coast guard plane’s fault but nobody should have died on that plane still. Man rip to those 5 coast guard people. Glad everyone on the Japan Airlines A350 survived, high praise to the pilots and cabin crew.
In a fierce tragedy, god blesses all the passengers and crews with the incredibly discipline patience to survive altogether. RIP members of the other involved plane.
I salute the Airbus crew members who put their life on the line to save the passengers, I hope the government rewards them generously. I am so happy for the all the passengers and crew who have survived this terrible accident. My heart goes out to the crew of the coast guard airline who have lost their lives.
My heart melts for Japan for this tragic incident…started the year with earth quake now this aircraft collision….I know Japanese people are brave and strong my prayers!!!…🙏 🙏 🙏
Since the Japanese Ministry of Land and Traffic let a 170% flight increase at the already full Haneda, runway accidents increased. Runway control got more complex and rushed, and hard-to-see-at-night small crafts have to share a limited number of runways with large crafts for 24H. They even reduced the number of ATC staff. It was an accident waiting to happen.
If what you said is true, they shouldn’t let this happen in the first place as in making it more busy. The risk is higher and eventually gonna happen in accident, it’s just sooner or later
@@rowanjones3476 I know and we always try to ignore it cause nothing much we can do about it. It’s happened everywhere. My country here got main construction using low quality materials to build shelter and accident happened when the building collapsed cause the low quality materials couldn’t sustain for a long time. Also they keep developing city area where the flood has becoming worse and worse every year. Not to mention the landslides where they chopped off the trees for to use of city and more profit.
I feel like you would only see a full evacuation like this in Japan. Everywhere else people would be pushing and shoving and hindering the effort. Seeing people just sitting down well all that smoke is in the cabin and there is an obvious fire is crazy
According to the latest reports, air traffic control had instructed the Coast Guard aircraft to wait elsewhere before the incident, according to the latest reports.
The incredibly effective evacuation rate of the A350 has just been proven. Full applause to Airbus designers and engineers for making it possible
As stated above being able to use the front facing exit slides reduced angle so people were able to get to tarmac quickly without injury and away from aircraft without injury to ankles from landing at bottom.

That, my friends, is the first A350 crash in human history. I also have to give credit to the engineers and the plane's architects for saving everyone by making the design more safer. May those 5 souls live long and prosper.
Japan has an orderly culture. It is in their nature it properly evacuate a burning plane. Had that crash happened almost anywhere else in the world, there'd have been fatalities.
Air France in 2005 in Toronto...No japanese on board, 0 dead !
There has a been an increase of near misses in 2023. The collision actually happened this time
Is there evidence of those cases, or is this pure speculation?
@@hannah60000 if you Google "airplane near misses New York times 2023" you should be able to find the article that's gotten a decent amount of attention recently. I saw it off a video but don't remember.
PBS speculates that the cause is the lack of personnel due to layoffs during the quarantine but high returning passenger traffic.

So sad for those died,,rest in peace
The fact that those passengers survived is a testament to an industry pushing for safety at every turn. No method of transportation is safer than commercial planes per distance traveled.
All passangers were saved!!! THANK GOD ALMIGHTY!!!!!🙏
Maybe it is a miracle but above all is the professional behaviour of the crew.
That's so heartbreaking
Respect to the Japanese security services. Turkey is always ready to help your country, we are brothers🇯🇵🇹🇷🙏🏼

This us why you book a good airlines where planes are well maintained atleast the crew was responsive and doors were working
According to the Japan Coast Guard, the controller gave the JAL plane permission to land, but instructed the Japan Coast Guard plane to proceed to a stopping point in front of the runway, without giving permission to enter the runway.
Do you think the Airbus couldn’t see the coast guard aircraft entering the runway before they make a landing?
@@user-tz1mr9hx2f It was at night. On the footage you see nothing. Usually a plane entering an active runway should have both the rotating beacon and the strobe lights on. It should be close to impossible to miss it. I say usually, because you see nothing on the footage. No lights whatsoever.
Edit: on second look, seems like their might be a taxi light in the dark.
@@DaGuys470 and before they entering the runway they didn’t see the Airbus is coming to their way? They have to check left and right before entering the runway right?
@@user-tz1mr9hx2f It was already night at Haneda Airport and it was dark, and since the Japan Coast Guard aircraft was smaller than the Airbus, the pilots could not confirm its presence when landing, and by the time they realized they were about to go around, it was already too late, and it is believed they collided.
@@user-airmusican not sure until the investigation come out
What brilliantly trained staff to evacuate such a large aircraft, on fire, with injured passengers and zero loss of life!!
(BTW BBC, please know that the "rear" of the aircraft is at the back - every shot shows the flames coming from the front / mid of the aircraft where it struck the coast guard aircraft 🥲)
My thoughts and prayers to everyone and especially those family members who have died in this tragic accident.
I thank God that so many people were saved 🙏. Siento mucho los que han perdido la vida, que RIP sus souls.

Nihon Sugoi. Ah Sugoi Sugoi.
Nothing is going on to Japan. It gets earthquakes all the time. Some bigger then others. Stop thinking that the sky is falling
@@alanbiancardi2531 Do you live in Japan? If not rather just keep your way of disgust and zero sympathy towards others to yourself mate. Your day will come! The Country is called Japan, not IT! You will be next in line and then we shall see what you have to comment!
@@alanbiancardi2531 Be that as it may, the chances of a 100% survival rate for a passenger jet incident like this is astoundingly low. I haven't watched much news lately; I have a passing interest in aviation however, so I've made an effort to pay some closer attention to this, and it's quite something.
Now, if such similar incidents were happening in America, I'm sure there'd be some theatrics from there.
you guys will be fine brother
Feeling sad for the innocent lives and the beautiful aircraft 😢
Kudos to the Japan airlines crews for the passenger’s safety..God bless all travelling on air,land and sea..
Japanese discipline, composure & consideration of others got those people out alive. Bravo 🙌🏼
Air France in 2005 in Toronto...No japanese on board, 0 dead !
Wow, that A350 aircraft is really well built!
Thank you Crews everywhere, this crew, and all first responders … 😮😢
OMG completely melted.. imagine trying to find the flight recorder
The aircraft melted because of the carbon fibre used in its construction. Whilst carbon fibre is strong it has a much lower melting point compared to aluminium. The flight recorders would have been mounted in the rear of the fuselage and are designed to survive many hours in a fire.
@waynej747....Because airplanes are constructed solely from carbon fiber now?
Are you saying there was no aluminum used in either aircraft?
Or that the aluminum used, didn't melt?
@@codymoe4986 looking at the wreckage of both aircraft it appears that both aircraft burnt quite hot, likely melting the aluminium components as well. The DH-8 wouldn’t have been helped by the fact it was probably loaded with fuel in preparation for its departure. I wonder how much fuel the A350 was still carrying?
Prayers for the family of the lost crew members.
RIP 🙏🙏🙏
The amazing thing is that in 1:35 into the video you can see most of the passengers calmly walking away from the burning aircraft? Presumably they had been instructed to do so... but I would probably have run like hell to distance myself from any coming explosion!
Sad news in 2nd day 2024. RIP for the victims
The crew of course did a good job but the main reason was because the passengers followed orders well. If this happened anywhere else I don't think it would be so easy.
Imagine this happened in America. Every man for themselves, fighting to get off ASAP. Causing even more panic and slowing departure even more. Clown culture.
It’s part of the reason for sure. People keep playing up Japan being a “disciplined” society, but following instructions lead by a well-trained cabin crew was the crunch and crucial aspect here.
Air France in 2005 in Toronto...No japanese on board, 0 dead !
True, in many uncivilized people this could have been difficult to escape, people trying to get their suitcases and stuff like the crash that took place last year.
My Condolences to the Families and Friends of the Deceased. May they rest in Peace.
Three possible explanations: 1) a mistake by ATC, 2) a mistake by the A350 landing on the wrong runway and 3) a mistake by the coastguard aircraft which was on the wrong runway...
I have no doubt the fault will be with the coast guard aircraft. If the JAL plane was approaching and landing on the wrong runway ATC would have noticed. The smaller coast guard plane almost for sure entered the runway without permission and was just harder to see by ATC.
I don't think ATC even noticed the coast plane was where it was - or they would have aborted the JAL plane landing. The pilot survives, at least so far and thankfully, but he is most likely going to have serious survivors remorse and some serious questions to answer to.
Why are you people not showing the other aircraft.
Exactly, I can't really see the small aircraft on the runway !
In memory of the 5 people on the coast guard plane😢. You will be missed🙏🙏🙏
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.
At 1:24 you can clearly see the no 2 engine (right side) of the aircraft was still producing enough thrust that it was sucking up items and spitting them out the back plus whipping up flames in the process. You can also see the same damage to the no 2 engine cowling as the no 1 (left side) has and that with the radome (nose) damage paints the picture that the Dash-8-300 was lined on the runway when it was struck from behind and rolled over by the much larger A350. That huge fireball was caused by fuel in both wings of the Dash-8-300 being suddenly ignited as it was run over and ripped apart.
You can see at 0:52 the Dash-8 flip over in the fireball.
Indeed, the Dash-8-300 lined up just in front of the Touchdown Zone of the A 350-900. After Touchdown the JAL-Pilots had no chance to avoid the Crash.
imagine if this happens in other countries, i doubt the passengers would listen to the crew members to leave their belongings behind
May have been the coast guard plane’s fault but nobody should have died on that plane still. Man rip to those 5 coast guard people. Glad everyone on the Japan Airlines A350 survived, high praise to the pilots and cabin crew.
Was it a runway incursion?
@@kingflynxi9420 not sure but either way the CG shouldn’t have been on the runway
@@kingflynxi9420 yes it was. They were given an instruction to hold short but instead, they were on the runway..
In a fierce tragedy, god blesses all the passengers and crews with the incredibly discipline patience to survive altogether.
RIP members of the other involved plane.
🙏🏽🙏🏽
Stay strong! Japan 🥺👍
Both planes were said to be given clearance to be there. ATC is being investigated now.
日本では今年物騒な事故が増えています…。どうかお気をつけてください😭
Huge credit to airbus.
great crew 🤝 disciplined passengers 🤝 great aircraft design and engineering
уважение экипажу и службам аэропорта
O, it was miracle for survivors. Feel sorry for rescue plane passengers 😮
Japan needs all the prayers. God bless Japan
I already have phobia of flying, imagine seeing this in the airport😢 I'll probably never want to fly again
ATC recordings are clear as day. The coastguard plane was told to hold, yet it rolled onto the runway.
I salute the Airbus crew members who put their life on the line to save the passengers, I hope the government rewards them generously. I am so happy for the all the passengers and crew who have survived this terrible accident. My heart goes out to the crew of the coast guard airline who have lost their lives.
Many lives saved. 🙏🏻 For the people lost and their family 🇺🇲
Rough start of the year to Japan. Hope things come right up over there.
I can't believe all people on board of the AB 350 escaped from the airplane after watching the burnt remains of the plane.
This makes me want to only fly with companies that use only Airbus
The cabin crew was very outstanding and also the passengers remained calm.
this speaks very much for the outstanding quality airbus delivers! incredible outcome
Is this the brand new A350-1000 that has just been delivered to JAL??
No, its the a350-900
Remarkable work by the cabin crew and excellent discipline of the passengers. This is how it's done!
You can’t even tell that used to be an Airbus A350, let alone a passenger plane… kudos to the crew for evacuating everyone safely 👏🏾👏🏾
Makes me think of that Wendover video about runway accidents being on the rise. I hope something is done to address the issue.
My heart melts for Japan for this tragic incident…started the year with earth quake now this aircraft collision….I know Japanese people are brave and strong my prayers!!!…🙏 🙏 🙏
Since the Japanese Ministry of Land and Traffic let a 170% flight increase at the already full Haneda, runway accidents increased. Runway control got more complex and rushed, and hard-to-see-at-night small crafts have to share a limited number of runways with large crafts for 24H. They even reduced the number of ATC staff. It was an accident waiting to happen.
If what you said is true, they shouldn’t let this happen in the first place as in making it more busy. The risk is higher and eventually gonna happen in accident, it’s just sooner or later
@@T.O.Walleebusier = greater profits for the airport owners. Safety regulations are always written in blood.
@@rowanjones3476yea right at the new year is the busiest
If what you say is true someone is for the high jump!
@@rowanjones3476 I know and we always try to ignore it cause nothing much we can do about it. It’s happened everywhere. My country here got main construction using low quality materials to build shelter and accident happened when the building collapsed cause the low quality materials couldn’t sustain for a long time. Also they keep developing city area where the flood has becoming worse and worse every year. Not to mention the landslides where they chopped off the trees for to use of city and more profit.
I feel like you would only see a full evacuation like this in Japan. Everywhere else people would be pushing and shoving and hindering the effort. Seeing people just sitting down well all that smoke is in the cabin and there is an obvious fire is crazy
According to the latest reports, air traffic control had instructed the Coast Guard aircraft to wait elsewhere before the incident, according to the latest reports.
The reason why they survived is because japanese are trained to be so calm.
Two pets in the plane were not saved.😢😢😢
Praying for Japan love from 🇯🇵🇮🇳
ABSOLUTELY MIRACULOUS from the Crew. SIMPLY MIND-BOGGLING. 🙌
