The video footage, broadcast by networks including YTN, JTBC and MBC, showed neither the back nor front landing gear were visible as smoke poured from the back of the sliding aircraft. Both black boxes from the South Korean airliner that crashed at the Muan International Airport on Sunday have been recovered, including flight data and voice record, according to a briefing from the Land Ministry. In September 1984, the program was renamed World News Tonight with Peter Jennings to reflect its sole anchor and senior editor.
The 19-year-old suspect was arrested and held without bond after several homemade explosive devices were found in a vehicle believed to have been stolen, officials said. South Korean investigators left the official residence of impeached President Yoon Suk Yeol after a near-six-hour standoff during which he defied their attempt to detain him. Braian Paiz is one of five people who has been charged in “One Direction” singer Liam Payne’s death.

The pilot followed the instructions and the plane struck navigation equipment on the ground before crashing into a wall. The jet initially attempted to land on runway no.01, when the control tower warned that birds were in the area and a strike was possible.
Robinson left ABC News in 1984, after stints of anchoring news briefs and the weekend editions of World News Tonight; he died from complications of AIDS in 1988. With Jennings as lead anchor, World News Tonight was the most-watched national newscast from February 27, 1989, to November 1, 1996, but from then on until February 2007, it placed second behind its main rival, NBC Nightly News. Occasional contributions included special reports by Walters, who was credited as anchor of the special coverage desk from New York City and worldwide, and commentary by Smith, who was easing into eventual retirement. The program’s distinct and easily identifiable theme (whose four-note musical signature was eventually used on other ABC News programs) was written by Bob Israel. Ratings slowly climbed to the point where World News Tonight eventually beat both NBC Nightly News and the CBS Evening News, marking the first time ever that ABC had the most-watched network evening newscast.
The death toll from a plane crash at the Muan International Airport in South Korea has risen to 96, according to the South Jeolla Fire Service. “At this time, it is difficult to determine the cause of the accident, and we have to wait for the official announcement of the investigation by the relevant government agency,” Kim Yi-bae said during a press briefing at the airport on Sunday. The CEO of South Korea’s Jeju Air said the aircraft that crashed at Muan International Airport had shown “no signs of issues” prior to Sunday’s accident. At least 122 people have been confirmed dead so far, according to the local fire department. Two people, both crew members, were pulled alive from the wreckage however rescuers warned chances finding other survivors are slim.
The official added that the ministry will interview control tower staff to gather additional information, including whether there were visibility issues. More than 1,570 personnel from the military, police and government have been deployed to Muan in South Korea’s Jeolla province to provide support for the recovery effort, an official from the country’s transport ministry said. Among the dead, 84 are male and 85 are female while the genders of 10 people have not been confirmed, according to the authority. One of the two survivors of Sunday’s Jeju Air crash in South Korea is conscious and talking, despite suffering multiple fractures, according to Ju Woong, the director of Seoul’s Ewha Hospital, where the 33-year-old is World News being treated. But I did not expect at all that my daughter would be on this flight,” he said. The investigators will “assist the Republic of Korea’s Aviation and Railway Accident Investigation Board (ARAIB),” the NTSB said.

Local fire officials and aviation experts say some sort of landing gear malfunction was likely, and the pilot also made a mayday call shortly after the control tower warned about birds in the area, but the official crash investigation could take years. Experts have urged local officials not to speculate on the disaster’s cause until more information is available. • Local fire officials and aviation experts say some sort of landing gear malfunction was likely.
