Ariana Airline Boeing 777 after crash landing on San Fransisco International Airport

San Fransisco : An Asiana Boeing 777 with 307 people on board crash landed as it fell short of runway on a sunny day. 

The investigators say that runway was auto landing system was not operable both with aircraft and on ground. 


Now a days the pilots are very addictive of using auto pilot system to fly and even to land the aircraft so that they have almost lost the ability to handle the aircraft manually.

Two men were killed and 181 were injured during the incident. 

Initial reports suggested that the pilot flew very low and hit the sea ridge and broke its tail and landing gear before crashing on the runway. The reports also suggest that the  pilot at last also decided to rotate (take off) but failed to do so.

Luckily, the aircraft caught fire before all the passengers were evacuated from it, which other wise could have killed all of them on board.
