Early reports are stating that the tail plane which appeared to be at an awkward angle (or perhaps the aircraft) appeared to separate just prior to or on landing.Last edited by fungus; 2013-07-06, 21:49.YSSY2/T-YSSY4 [SBS-1 Basestation w/- SSE-1090 SJ Mk2 Antenna (Thanks Delcomp) ] [Uniden UBCD996T w/- 16 element Wideband Discone VHF/UHF Antenna, and tuned 108MHz-137MHz Airband Antenna] [Trialing a home-brew 1090MHz collinear antenna]

Radio traffic from the tower, sounds like about 40 seconds is when they see the crash.

further news;
Two dead, dozens injured in San Fran plane crash.
Two people died, dozens were injured and as many as 60 remained unaccounted for after a Boeing 777 coming in from South Korea crash landed at San Francisco International Airport.
It was unclear what caused the Asiana Airlines plane to crash just after noon local time, but officials said terrorism had been ruled out. TV news footage showed the top of the fuselage was burned away and the entire tail gone. One engine appeared to have broken away and pieces of the tail were strewn about the runway.

Film of actual crash caught on cam;
Fred Hayes was watching planes land at San Francisco airport and filmed the Asiana Airlines Flight 214 crash landing.
"Pilot was attempting his first landing at KSFO" and "had little experience on type" quote/unquote;
I think we'll leave the death of one of the girls to the experts to sort out.

You are so right Gregg, re leaving the experts to sort out stuff.
Of course, on another well known aviation reporting site, there's already about 500 experts lining up with their "opinions". I suspect some of them knew the answers in their heads about 10 seconds before the accident happened!
Cheers
