the question, what is she saying about the pilots not being tested for drugs or alcohol after the crash? >> reporter: good morning, jon. we spoke with ntsb chair hersman about that issue, why those pilots were not drug and alcohol tested after the crash of asiana flight 214. she tells us that it's up to the airline's policy as to whether or not that happened. she does not know if policy was followed saturday morning. that is something she tells us the ntsb is still trying to understand. ntsb investigators headquarter at the hotel here in south san francisco are also trying to understand why the auto throttle was not working during final approach. the two pilots at controls of the 777 told investigators they thought the auto throttle was armed and maintaining a steady 137 knots, the minimum speed necessary for safe landing. question, why did they not notice this was in the the case, they were in fact too low and

too slow, dangerously so? because it turns out they might have been distracted by another pressing issue. in the final approach the pilots realized they were off center from the runway trying to correct the problem. it wasn't until around 200 feet out out they realized they were too low and too slow. they did throttle up to abort the landing but it was too late. >> between 200 and 500 feet they were focused on getting lined up. they weren't as focused on the air speed. they recognized that the air speed was low and they tried to bring it up. >> as a layperson, someone not a pilot, i'm trying to wrap my head around the fact speed and altitude two main things to be focused on flaying a plane. how did they let that lapse during a crucial portion of the flight? >> what i can tell you is the facts and what i can tell you is

what we've observed. i won't be doing analysis on scene. we'll reserve that when we have a full picture and our team is able to sit down understand training programs and how the crews worked together. >> reporter: the pilot at controls of asiana flight 214 had 43 hours experience flying a 777. this was his first attempted landing of a 777 at sfo. his co-pilot had oiver 3,000 hours experience, training him and his first time as an instructor. bob redell, "today in the bay." 6:04. the ce of of asiana airlines in the bay area expecting to meet with survivors at sf general hospital. live look at sf general where right now five passengers remain in critical condition, including within person under age 18. a child being treated the hospital as well but that child is in serious condition. the airline's ceo met with a

much more severe. >> that pattern of injuries could play a role in the controversy over the safety features on board the plane including the possibility that passengers wore different seat belts based on where they sat. preliminary reports from victims suggest premier passengers had full shoulder harnesses while those flying in coach only had a lap belt to restrain them. this raises one very big question for a burlingame attorney. >> you start to compare injuries that occurred in one area of the aircraft where you had the dual restraint system with those who didn't. you see whether there were dramatic differences in the nature and type of injury. >> biomechanics experts say extra restraint in first class are there because of more passengers, more room for passengers to be thrown. in coach, the seat in front of you prevents that. lawsuits are necessary to change what he calls the corporate culture. he already has two clients from

the asiana disaster and says depending on what investigators uncover, he may end up suing the airline as well as boeing which built the plane and companies that made the flight instruments and possibly sfo. >> stay with "today in the bay" all morning for continuing coverage of the asiana air crash. bob redell following a live report about the new details from the ntsb at 6:45. get your updates on nbcbayarea.com. check the forecast with metrologist christina loren. >> it's looking good. good morning. i'm here to inject energy into your wednesday which can be tough, yeah. it hard getting over that hump. today, weather's going to help you out. we don't have thick pockets of fog. no reduced?4 visibility on your drive to work. temperatures comfortable out there this morning. 57 good morning to you in livermore. 56 for concord. 54 san mateo. 62, comfortable, sunnyvale now.

that people can be licensed in the united states but yet fly in any country around the world if they have to get licensed in every country around the world, that's certain aly a challenge. s countries have to work together. >> reporter: trying to determine if asiana polyfollowed. trying to figure out whether or not the auto throttle was working properly on final approach to sfo. two pilots of the 777 thought the auto throttle was armed and maintaining 137 knots, minimum speed necessary for a safe landing, but it wasn't and they might not have noticed it because they might have been distracted by another pressing issue. in the final approach, asiana flight 214 off center from the runway. they were trying to correct this problem. and it wasn't until a few hundred feet out from touchdown they realized they were also too slow and too low.
