Japan Airlines says jet cleared to land before collision

[Collection]Japanese investigators probe cause of catastrophic collision at Tokyo's Haneda Airport between a coast guard plane and a passenger jet. Five people on the coast guard aircraft died, but all 379 passengers and crew escaped to safety minutes before the Japan Airlines Airbus was engulfed in flames. The burned-out airliner serves as a reminder of their narrow escape. The captain of the coast guard plane, the lone survivor, suffered serious injuries. Government officials vow to investigate the incident and determine the role of air traffic control in granting landing clearance.
