Japan Airlines 516, we just started the year and a disaster already happened

RIP to the 5 people that died in the Coast Guard plane


On 2 January 2024, at approximately 17:47 JST (08:47 UTC), a runway collision occurred between Japan Airlines Flight 516, an Airbus A350-900, and a De Havilland Canada Dash 8 operated by the Japanese Coast Guard. Flight 516 was a scheduled domestic passenger flight from New Chitose Airport near Sapporo, Japan, to Haneda Airport in Tokyo. While Flight 516 was landing at Haneda Airport, the two aircraft collided and caught fire. The collision killed five of the six crew onboard the Dash 8, but all 367 passengers and 12 crew were evacuated from the A350 with no loss of life.

Both aircraft were destroyed by fire following the crash, marking the first serious incident involving an A350 and the first hull loss of the type since its introduction in 2015, as well as the first hull loss by accident of an all-composite aircraft. It was both the first fatal accident and the first hull loss involving a Japan Airlines aircraft since the crash of Flight 123 in 1985.

    @CaptainNoble and what do you mean by "flooding the page with the same topic", maybe because I'm only talking about 1 topic? and I'm just giving 3 images and an explanation not like I'm giving 10 images and being overreacting in the forum, and btw I already said RIP so if you said that I'm making a memorial without saying the condolences thingy then you're just not reading the forum

    @CaptainNoble from the title of this forum, it clearly says that the forum is talking about Japan 516, and if you like see this for.....idk 100th time maybe and that's why you're upset, just don't click and comment on this forum when you could've just read the title and understand that the forum is talking about Japan 516 which somehow makes you mad, this is literally about airport disaster and people dying and you're gonna "lose my mind" over it

    @Ghosts well, If you really want to make a memorial for the victims, then i implore you to show your condolences on other forum posts about the matter, rather than flooding the page with the same topic, anyways do whatever you want.
