Passengers evacuate a Japan Airlines jetliner at Tokyo international airport after the plane collided with a Japanese coastguard aircraft and caught fire.

All 367 passengers and 12 crew onboard the Airbus plane were safely evacuated but five of the six crew members from the smaller plane -- bound for central Japan after Monday's huge earthquake -- died.
