The two victims who perished as an Asiana Airlines Boeing 777 crashed and burst into flames as it came to land at San Francisco International Airport on Saturday morning have been identified as Chinese schoolgirls who were on a class trip.
The bodies of Ye Mengyuan and Wang Linjia, both 16, were found on the runway after the tail of the plane, which was flying from Seoul in South Korea with 307 people on board, was ripped off as the aircraft hit the approach area of the runway as it came in for landing shortly before 11.30am PDT.
The girls, who were identified by Chinese state media on Sunday, were part of a group of 29 students and five teachers who had set off from Jiangshan Middle School – a highly competitive school in Zhejiang in eastern China. They were all seated near the back of the plane.
