Japan Airlines on Fire | Collision with Coast Guard Airplane
02/JAN/2024
A Japan Airlines Airbus A350-941 (JA13XJ) performing flight from Sapporo RJCC to Tokyo Haneda RJTT was touching down on runway 34R when the aircraft impacted a Japanese Coast Guard Dash-8 and burst into flames on the runway.
All people onboard evacuated.
5 of the 6 occupants of the Coast Guard aircraft received fatal injuries. The Captain survived but received serious injuries.
Any audio prior to the incident was recorded in such bad quality that it's nearly impossible to extract clear communications from either side. JAL516 did receive a clearance to land from ATC, and so they did readback. The Coast Guard aircraft had been instructed to hold short of the runway at intersection C5.
Information to be updated as more official reports release.
