The accident at the airport in Tokyo that happened January this year into the focus of numerous media in the world, and what is being talked about now is the success of the Japanese in evacuating all passengers in a short period of time.
The Japan Airlines company, whose plane was involved in the accident, announced that all 379 passengers, including eight children and crew members, were successfully evacuated and that they were unharmed.
Several aviation experts analyzed the incident and said that this development of the situation is tantamount to a miracle.
“We just witnessed a miracle. It’s unbelievable how they managed to get all the passengers out of that plane,” the pilot told Sky News.
Professor Graham Braithwaite of Britain’s Cranfield University praised the efforts of the aircraft’s crew and pilots.
“Japan has a phenomenal track record in terms of transport safety. The evacuation was successful and shows how much has been invested in cabin crew training. The Japanese emphasize safety. Crew members are the last people off the plane and they did an incredible job,” he explained.
As it is pointed out, passengers and crew had 90 seconds to leave the plane before a major tragedy.
