SAN FRANCISCO (AP) — A video has surfaced showing the fiery 2013 crash of a commercial airliner on approach at San Francisco International Airport and a rescue response to the incident that killed three passengers and injured 200 others.
Investigators previously released a brief portion of the clip in 2013 showing the crash and its aftermath.
The longer version released Wednesday shows hundreds of passengers walking near the crash as emergency trucks arrive.
The 47-minute video clip was shot from the airport control tower and shows Asiana Airlines flight 214 coming in for a landing over San Francisco Bay before clipping a seawall at the beginning of the runway.
It shows smoke and dust rising from the craft as it spins down the runway then zooms in as passengers slide down emergency chutes as the plane begins to burn.
