A Japan Airlines passenger jet collided with a coast guard plane at Tokyo's Haneda Airport, resulting in the deaths of five coast guard personnel. The passenger jet, which had 379 people on board, was engulfed in flames after the crash, but all passengers and crew were safely evacuated. The JAL flight had been cleared to land by air traffic control, and an investigation is underway to determine the cause of the accident, including the possibility of professional negligence. The coast guard plane was on a mission to deliver aid following a recent earthquake. Authorities have reopened three of Haneda's four runways, and Airbus, along with British investigators, is assisting with the investigation.
