"Asiana Airlines Flight 214 was a scheduled transpacific passenger flight from Incheon International Airport, South Korea, that crashed on final approach to San Francisco International Airport, United States, on July 6, 2013. Of the 307 people (291 passengers and 16 crew) aboard the Asiana Airlines Boeing 777-200ER, two passengers died at the crash scene (one from injuries sustained in the crash, one from being run over by a fire truck) and a third died in a hospital several days later. 181 others were injured, about 13 of them critically. Among the injured were three flight attendants thrown in their seats onto the runway when the aircraft tail hit the seawall in front of runway 28L." (visit link)
