News still filtering through. I have read reports that the tail may have come off!

Reports of people with burns but please let there be no fatalities.

Aircraft was a Boeing 777 Asiana 214 from Seoul.

Now updated to 2 dead and about 60 injured

The pictures at the end if the runway seem to suggest they came in too low. Weather certainly not an issue - a nice clear day at SFO

Just throwing this out there, but has there been any reports on whether the aircraft lost power prior to landing? (thinking British Airways 777 crash a few years ago).
