The ceo of Asiana Airlines is expected to arrive in San Francisco later today. Were learning more about the final seconds of the decent. Joe vasquez with more. Reporter as asiana flight 214 on approach 17 miles from sfo, the engines were working and no indications of any problems. Until the final seconds when the crew began to realize the plane was dramatically slowing down going about 40 Miles Per Hour when they should have been. At 7 seconds before impact, a member of the flight crew called for the pilot to speed up. 4 seconds before the controls started to shake. The pilot tried to change his mind about 1. 5 seconds before the crash. He tried to abort the landing but it was too late. Oh, my god. Oh, its an accident. The tail hit the ground first. The lower portion of the tail is in the rocks at the sea wall. There is also debris from the sea wall located several hundred feet up the run way. Take a close look at this amateur video shot by a teenager staying at a hotel. You can see the emergency slides begin to inflate and passengers immediately scramble off the burning plane. We now know there were problems during the evacuation. Two of the emergency slides inflated inside the plane. Had to hand flight attendants an axe.

Still not clear whether she was still alive when that happened. San Francisco Police are now investigating this incident.

She has the National Transportation safety board. Good morning. Lets just talk. You mentioned yesterday about the language. Was there a communication barrier . We dont believe there was a communication barrier at this point. Its english and korean speakers. Theyll be developing a transcript of that tape. Its a two hour tape. They are going to focus on the approach and landing phase. But all communications with air Traffic Control are required to be in english. I know you are going to talk to the pilots today. Four pilots. Can you take us through that process. Are all four in the room at the same time . And why wait three days after the crash . Why not talk to them as soon as possible . Thats a really good question. People expect for those things to take place. After a crash, you have people who have been up around the clock. They were trying a specific flight. Some people might have injuries and might need to be treated in the hospital hchlt and we have a process we follow. Our korean counterpart arrived on monday or im sorry on sunday. We do group interviews. We began those on monday. Were about halfway through the interview process. Everything is going well.

Our team is out on scene. They arrived early this morning to get to work again. Theyve been documenting the debris starting at the sea wall all the way down the run way to the wreckage. Theyve examined the engine. The engines were producing power at the time of the crash. A total station examination of the site. Were going to locate each individual part, mark it, know where it is in space. What came off first. How things might have come apart looking at the landing gear at the aircraft surfaces. Were really doing a comprehensive documentation of the team and getting excellent support from the local fba as well as the airport. Things are really moving forward. We know its important to local we get the airport up to full strength and working to do our job as quickly as possible. How long do you think it will take and how long will the fuselage be out there on the run way . Obviously, its a very big structure. And were going to have to make decisions about how its removed. We will take the parts were particularly interested in and preserve those and put those in a location where we can do further examination. But that entire structure is going to need to be moved off the property and put in a secure place so wreckage is protected. Thats going to take time and effort. Were working with Salvage Companies right now as we finish the work on scene. We have 300 seats to document when were looking at survival factors. Were working as fast as we can. All right.

Thats what the investigation looks like on the outside. More with the inside of the wreckage. Snapped these photos. The women kept returning to rescue survivors. And one of them was giving a child a ride to safety. She was carrying a passenger and going back and forth. And later she was still running around and helping other crew. And working with the firemen. She was crying, she was in great amount of fear but she did a great job. The overhead bins collapsed and luggage blocked the exit rows. The ceiling was coming down and felt like something was dragging the plane. I couldnt see because there was a wall. First responders said fuel was gushing out. Firefighters had only one way to get on to the plane quickly. Our only way up was the shoot. Thats what we did. Went right up the chute. Made her way down the isle knocking down flames with a hose and spotted elderly passengers and kids trapped between the seats. By the time we removed the final victim, the conditions were the fire was banking down on us. Heavy black smoke. I feel lucky and blessed we were able to get those people out in that time. Police officer Jim Cunningham tossed his knife up to cut off seat belts and help passengers. He held his breath and tried not to drop the passengers while coughing. I couldnt let the people be in there. They werent screaming. They were moaning and had a helpless look on their face. I wasnt going to leave them inside there. He was asked if he was a hero. Police chief greg sur answered. Hes a hero. Kpix 5. And we have more information about the men in the cockpit. The pilot and copilot had 22,000 hours between them.
