Aviation expert says Japan airline had top safety features

A travel expert said the Japan airlines aircraft which collided with a smaller Coast Guard plane on a runway had the "latest generation safety features onboard." All 379 people on board the Japan Airlines plane miraculously escaped as it was engulfed by a massive fire upon landing at Tokyo’s Haneda Airport on Tuesday evening.

The crash killed five out of six of the Coast Guard crew on the plane, which was involved in delivering aid to earthquake victims in north-central Japan, prime minister Fumio Kishida said during a news conference.

Travel expert Sally Gethin said a thorough investigation is underway to determine what went wrong.
