Initial reports are often unclear although it is clear based on pictures that many made it out of the plane. Hopefully everyone made it out safely.
SAN FRANCISCO (KCBS) — An Asiana Airlines Boeing 777 crashed at San Francisco International Airport around 11:30 a.m. Saturday, according to the Federal Aviation Administration.
It was flight 214 from Seoul, South Korea, initially said to be a cargo plane – but later was identified as a passenger jet.
The airlines said 291 people were on board, including a group of vacationing Korean school children, but there was no official word on any casualties. Eyewitnesses at the airport saw some passengers evacuated by emergency slides from the plane.
