Reports suggest the aircraft's tail broke off as the passenger plane prepared to land at San Francisco Airport.

A passenger plane has crashed while landing at San Francisco airport, forcing passengers to jump down the emergency inflatable slides to safety.

Local media has quoted emergency services as saying all of those on the aircraft have been accounted for.

The Asiana Airlines flight, coming from Seoul, South Korea, was believed to be carrying 290 passengers, 12 crew members and one infant.

Some passengers have been treated for burns, according to reports.



Eyewitnesses reported seeing the plane's tail section break off during the crash.

A fire started when the plane landed, witnesses said.

Parts of the plane's tail and the landing gear were strewn across the runway.

David Eun, believed to be a passenger on the aircraft, posted on Twitter: "I just crash landed at SFO. Tail ripped off. Most everyone seems fine. I'm ok. Surreal."

He added: "Fire and rescue people all over the place. They're evacuating the injured."

Fire trucks have sprayed a white foam on the wreckage.

Federal Aviation Administration spokeswoman Laura Brown was supposed to land on runway 28 left at San Francisco International Airport.

She said the sequence of events was still unclear, but it appeared the plane landed and then crashed.

Sky News Correspondent Tom Parmenter said: "There were large plumes of smoke coming from this plane.

"The tail seems to be the initial problem on landing, and then the fire seems to have started once the plane was on the runway.

"People have been pictured walking away from the wreckage."

Asiana is South Korea's second-largest airline.
