It, the 225 First Responders definitely saved lives, but with all the chaos here yesterday, there are questions of how one of the girls died. As the ntsb combs over the crash site new information is emerging about how one of the 16yearold Chinese Students may have been killed in the crash of asiana flight. They have documented the locations of rest of the two fatalities. Theyre going to be working now to document the seating positions of those who were injured. Reporter nbc bay area has learned that the San Mateo County Corners Office got a call from the San Francisco fire department. Apparently members of the First Response team were concerned that they may have played a role in the death of the girl whose body was found near the fuse see laj. Published reports quoted the San Francisco fire chief as saying that girls injuries are consistent with being run over by a fire truck or other emergency vehicle. The ntsb was not asked specific questions about her death but did say part of their investigation will focus on how emergency officials responded to the crash. The airport rescue and firefighting operations deployed 23 responders and 9 vehicles after the crash. Reporter the two girls who died were from china. They were coming to the u. S. To visit Stanford University and then they were scheduled to go on to San Fernando Valley for a summer camp. Live at sfo, im cheryl hurd, nbc bay news. Cheryl, thank you. Seven seconds. We learned today thats how long pilots had to react to the unfolding disaster around them as flight 214 came in for a landing. Today the National Transportation safety board released a secondbysecond time line leading up to the crash. Steven stock joins us with details of those harrowing last moments before impact. Steven . Diane, experts tell us that the most critical and dangerous time of any flight is when you land. Everything has to be done just right. In this case those vitt call moments came just seconds before impact. Crash scene investigators say information from both the cockpit voice recorder and data recorder show exactly what happened in those final seven seconds. That is what amazes me about this situation. Reporter seven seconds that vet tral commercial pilot jay rollins says was the difference between normal landing and disaster. Without speed the aircraft will fall out of the sky. Reporter thats exactly what the preliminary data from the ntsb shows happened. Its making its final approach to runway 28 l with its engines idoling. No communication or indication that anything was wrong until seven seconds before impact when the voice recorder registers something. A call from one of the crew members to increase speed. Reporter that, say experts, was critical as the planes speed had apparently gone way below what was required to land safely on the runway given the glide slope that the plane was on. The plane was supposed to be going at least 137 knots or about 158 miles an hour. Were noti talking about a fw knots here or there, were talking about a significant speed below 137. Reporter that meant the plane was losing altitude faster than it should have been. Three seconds later, four seconds before impact, another critical point. The pilots normal reaction will be to start to pull the nose up and he will also add power. Reporter a stick shaker, meaning an alarm went off in the cockpit and the controls started shaking indicating that as the pilot tried to apparently pull back on the stick and get the plaens nose in the air, the plane began to stall and then. A call to initiate a go around occurred 1. 5 seconds before impact. Reporter a second and a half before the crash the pilot and crew are still trying to gun the planes engines and lift back off into the sky. Attempting to go around the airport and try around. At some point the aircraft will get so slow that it will stop below the glide path no matter how far you pull the nose up. In fact, pulling the nose up only makes it worse. Reporter now how does it make it worse . It makes the plane slow down even further and that apparently is what happened. The question tonight is why . Why did the plane come in too low . Why was it going too slow . Ntsb investigators will spend the next few weeks trying to get an answer to that very question, why. Diane. Thanks, steven. That boeing 777 has one of the best safety records in the world. The two People Killed in yesterdays crash were the first two deaths in the history of that aircraft. There have been only two other serious accidents involving a 777. The most recent happened in 2008 at Londons Heathrow airport. That plane also touched down early, and coming up in justen minutes steven will be back to show us what role that crash may play in the investigation of the crash at sfo. So how about the survivors . We learned today that two people are paralyzed at San Francisco general hospital. In all, 53 patients were admitted to that trauma center. 17 remain in the hospital tonight. 6 are in Critical Condition including a girl. And thats where we find nbc bay areas stephanie trang. Stephanie . Reporter hi there, diane. We havent seen many people come out. Weve seen plenty go in. I spoke earlier with a couple from san jose. They were visiting their friends, a man has a head injury, the wife cannot walk. The three are mostly okay except for a broken finger. Were seeing a wide range of injuries coming out of this. The chief of surgery, theyre saying something pretty striking. She said, had it not been for skilled First Responders who triaged the most critically injured patients well, more people would have likely died. These are people who suffered severe internal bleeding and road rash all over their bodies. Doctors said it looked like the people had been dragged over something. Most of these patients were sitting in the back of the plane. That includes a woman from china with her family. She was able to climb out of the bathroom. I had no time to spare actually because i have five Family Member in hospital. I need time to take care of them, but yesterday night when i was there, yes, i was scared. The thing was, okay, in my brain many times. Reporter now her 4yearold son is still here at sfo general with a broken leg. It could be a week before he leaves. Shes also trying to get ahold of her sister whos apparently at stanford but hasnt been answering her cell phone. Still trying to get a chance to see her in person. Were also getting a better idea of the more serious injuries. There are fractured spines with paralysis. I dont know if its permanent. Theres head trauma and orthopaedic injuries. The last update, San Francisco mayor ed lee said he got to visit some patients, including three children who he said were in good spirits and smiling. So hopefully things progressing in the right direction. For now live at sf general, stephanie trang, bay area news. Stephanie, thanks for the update. The chinese consulate is helping to adjust the 60 Chinese Students in the bay area. Ten teachers were with them. The consulate is working to make sure all of the students and teachers have the documents they need to return home or to continue their trip in the united states. The consul general spoke through an interpreter about the students. Translator i was also moved by the fact that even the chinese, the passengers got frightened, even traumatized by the accident, but they didnt complain about it. Some of them are still very much concerned with the safety of their classmates and their friends. There were a total of 141 chinese nationals on board that flight. Almost 18 hours since the crash many people are trying to fly into or out of the bay area are dealing with significant delays. Monty francis joins us from sfo with that part of the story tonight. Hello, monty. Diane, good evening. Three of the four runways at sfo are still open. Theyre dealing with delays and cancellations. Theres a lot of traffic. That third runway, 28 r located next to the runway where the plane crashed opened at 1 00 this afternoon. That should help accommodate the demand and clear the back log. The duty manager tells me from midnight last night and through today, a total of 301 flights have been canceled. 139 are departing and 162 are arriving flights. Right now arriving flights are running on average about 90 minutes late. Thats for departing flights to the airport to call your carrier. We just spoke to several people in the united terminal who told us theyre basically stranded here until tuesday because all the flights are booked until then. On top of it, theyve also had a hard time finding hotel rooms. We called 40 different hotels. All of them were booked. Kind of stood there thinking, am i going to have to stay here overnight . Tuesday afternoon so ill get back tuesday night and ive been here since yesterday morning. How does that make you feel . Well, sort of an adventure so thats for sure. Lots of lines and making friends with people who are also stuck here. Reporter now a handful of flights scheduled to land today at sfo have instead been diverted to san jose and oakland, international. Southwest airlines, theyre not charging passengers the regular fees to change their tickets or destinations. Youll have to check with your individual carrier. Some of the back log has been cleared. As you just heard, diane, theres still many passengers dealing with the latest cancellations. Some are even stranded at sfo. Monty francis, nbc bay area news. Thanks, monty.

Involved in the crash is one of the safest. As we reported earlier, there have been only two other accidents involving that type of jet. Our aviation expert steven stock has been looking into the history of this airplane to see if this had played a role. Diane, 777 aircraft are made by boeing. There are 1100 currently flying around the world. Until yesterday there had been only two crashes involving boeing 777s in the world. Until yesterday none of those crashes involved fatalities. The questions have been raised by similar incidents. Video from 2008 when a 777 landed short of the runway only at Heathrow Airport in london. That was later determined to be a mechanical problem. The aircraft landed short, very similar to this situation except when he landed short he landed on the ground, bounced onto the runway and cautioned excessive damage. The airplane was totaled but they didnt have nearly the fire and all that you saw in this situation. Again, there were no fatalities. This afternoon the chairman of the ntsb did say they were reviewing that crash in london. She pointed out that the london crash involved different types of engines on the airplane. Those were rolls royce engines. There was a freezeup. The ones used in the plane yesterday were made by pratt and whitney. So far investigators do not think there is a connection. However, they say they are currently not ruling anything out. Well let you know as this investigation proceeds. Diane. Thank you, steven. Blood centers in the bay area are asking for blood donations for victims of the plane crash. Officials at the Blood Centers of the pacific say they are specifically looking for type o negative and type ab plasma. However, they are welcoming all donations at this point. The main sentences centers in San Francisco and mill ray are accepting donations. Officials say the july 4th holiday is a critical time for the holiday.

I noticed there was a fire in redwood city where 16 people were injured. This is what we have to be prepared for. This is a blood center along with normal blood needed for surgeries and traumas.
