be hold ag news conference later this morning at 11:30 to update us on the investigation of the crash of asiana flight 214 and perhaps release new details surrounding this horrible accident. the agency has examined the cockpit voice and flight data recorders and come up with a preliminary idea of what was happening in the cockpit during the final moments. when it was on final approach saturday morning, that boeing 777 was flying too low and moving too slow, well below 137 knots or about 158 miles per hour. that's the minimum speed required for a safe landing. seven seconds before impact, the pilots realized this. three seconds later, the flight stick begins to shake to alert the pilots they are about to stall. a second and a half before the crash, they throttled the engines in attempt to go back in the air and abort the landing.

south korea is announcing its officials will be inspecting the engines and landing equipment on all boeing 777s. those are owned by asiana and korea air. a news conference scheduled for late they are morning at 11:30. reporting live in burlingame across from sfo, bob redell, "today in the bay." we have new information in to our newsroom right now. some of the passengers from asiana flight 214 are returning home to seoul, south korea today. we don't know how many survivors were on the return flight. we can tell you a woman was still in a wheelchair. he was later transported to a local hospital where she had to take an ambulance to get home. the parents of two young girls killed in the crash are on their way to san francisco right now. they plan to meet with the san mateo county corn onner.

rash-type burns, many of the survivors coming in and out, too shaken up to relive the horrifying moments. others saying they were bracing for impact because they had a feeling that the flight was going to crash and at the very last minute they heard the pilot trying to get the plane back up and heard the engine revving. the chief of surgery at sf general where 53 patients were treated says first responders did a great job of saving lives, getting the most seriously injured to the hospital first. >> what we did see are patterns of large amounts of abdominal injuries, a huge amount of spine fractures, some of them which include paralysis. we have seen some head trauma and multiple orthopedic injuries. >> reporter: she says the patients who can speak say they were seated in the rear of the plane, that it appears they were restrained. when asked were they in their seats buckled, she says it appears to be of the 17 here,

strewn all across the tarmac. it could be days before the runway is officially cleared. part of the investigation will look into the experience of the pilot who had only 43 hours of flying 777s and had never landed at sfo. despite that, asiana air has come out in defense of the pilot. "today in the bay's" bob redell live in burlingame with the details. >> reporter: good morning. asiana airlines doesn't believe the fact that the pilot only had 43 hours flying time, the equivalent of three to four transatlantic flights, they don't believe that was a problem, given that their pilot also had time in a simulator and had landed at this airport before, just not in a 777. saturday morning was the first time the pilot had ever attempted to land a 777 at this airport, the ninth landing for him in that particular model aircraft. the airline said he was in

training with an experienced copilot with more than 3,000 hours flying 777s. the ntsb says no one in the cockpit realized there was a problem until the final seven seconds of flight with the approach too low and too slow, the pilot gunned the engines and tried to pull up. it was too late. the plane slammed into the runway and caught fire. 43 hours flight time in a 777, the first time he's attempted to land that aircraft at this airport. to the layperson it sounds more like pilot ror. >> we look at not just flight time in this aircraft type, but also overall experience and we look at the crew and the crew working together, make sure we have a good crew pairing, people who have experience. it's always going to be someone's first time to fly in an airplane or first time to land at an airport. we want to make sure that the system is robust enough so it can be done safely, not just the first time, but every time.

>> reporter: the ntsb also telling us this morning typically in these sorts of investigations, what they have found, it's not just one factor that led up to the crash, ie wouldn't just be pilot error, but could be a combination of factors, a chain of events. it's so early in the investigation, they don't have a cause yet. this is something they have found through their experience. the ntsb will be holding a news conference later this morning at 11:30 at a nearby hotel. they are going to update us on the investigation and possibly they say release some new information surrounding this horrible accident. reporting live in burlingame across from sfo, bob redell, "today in the bay." >> appreciate it, bob. we can tell you the parents of the two young girls killed in that crash are right now on their way to san francisco. their flight left from shanghai moments ago. once they land, they are planning to meet with the san mateo county coroner to try to figure out how these young girls were so sadly killed.

we're learning one of them may not have died on impact. "today in the bay's" marla tellez is live at the coroner's office in san mateo. she joins us now with the latest. >> laura and jon, good morning to you both. within the last 15 minutes we learned the parents of the victims have left china on an asiana airlines flight, essentially the same route that flight 214 took which means they are bound for seoul, south korea and will land at sfo potentially as early as this evening. the first order of business once they arrive is to come to the san mateo county coroner's office. we have new video that shows the teen's parents boarding a bus in china with a delegation ultimately headed here to sfo. the parents of victims wang linjia and ye mengyuan had the best intentions for their daughters, sends them to the u.s. to learn english and

prepare them potentially for an american college education. one of the girls was found near an evacuation slide. rescuers have raised concerns that they could be to blame for her death. >> the airport rescue and firefighting operations deployed 23 responders in nine vehicles after the crash. we will be looking to determine the effectiveness of the response. >> reporter: the 16-year-olds were part of a larger group headed to a three-week summer camp at a christian school at the san fernando valley. they were scheduled to visit stanford university. we can tell you the girls were close friends at least for the last four years. wang linjia loved physics and calligraphy. ye mengyuan recently won a national gymnastics championship and would routinely receive top honors for her school's annual speech contest.

clearly both of these girls absolutely had bright futures that were cut way, way too short. i have a call in to the coroner here. live in san mateo, marla tellez, "today in the bay." also learning all seven children taken to lucile packard children's hospital in stanford have been released. they were some of the 55 people rushed to two stanford hospitals on saturday. ten adults remain in the hospital in stanford this morning. as for the other local hospital, st. francis says they have one remaining patient but he or she is not in critical condition. st. mary's has four patients remaining, non-in critical condition. we are learning details about the crash. our team coverage will continue this morning with what we're learning about the two girls that were killed in the crash. they, along with a number of classmates were supposed to be going to southern california as marla mentioned for a summer camp. coming up, we'll hear from some of the people that were involved with that camp.
