enough have been canceled and the f.a.a. is reporting delays up to nine hours with hundreds of san franciscos passengers trying to figure out alternative travel plans. it is still rough going at sfo even with three of the four runways open. there is still no word on when the four the runway 28 left will re-open because the charred wreckage is still out there. it remains the focus of a major federal investigation. >> gregg: literally, shoulder by shoulder sweeping across the runway, picking up and looking through the evidence there. it will be a long-term before they open up 28l. claudia, thank you from sfo. we are getting a riveting account from one of the passengers on board the asiana plane showing how everyone helped one another. >> it was slow-motion. we could not believe it was happening. you did not know if you would be dead at the end of this or not. the plane stops. the person to my left was injure ed and was unconscious. i unbuckled myself. i was hurting but not too open. i opened the door. the door we managed to ge

of the smoke you must consider it to be a threat to the airplane. >> the f.a.a. advise people to sit as close as possible to exits and not to sleep during take off or landing. our reporting on the crash at sfo continue on twitter, as well. you can go to abc7news.com to see the photos of the crash scene the ntsb released. >> mike? >> you have to be above 2,000' to get above the cloud cover. some of the rays can be see atop the clouds at mount tamalpais. the temperatures compared to 24 hours ago with the air quality, it will be good in the north bay. the coast and central bay are doing well, and the santa clara valley, no ozone levels to be concerned with but u.v. index, that is going to be high. as we look at the golden gate bridge we are going to see the sunshine return. it is just a matter of time. it will be one to four degrees warmer today from san francisco, one degree warmer at 67 and fremont at 78, two degrees warmer. santa rosa is 82. san jose this morning shows warmer tomorrow and the sea breeze develops and it will cool the bay and the coast tomorrow mov

this dates back to 2008 when the f.a.a. accused the company of using parts that didn't meet federal safety standards. the feed a that boeing repeatedly submitted plans to fix the problem but didn't actually put one in place for two years. in a statement, boeing says the safety of our products is boeing's number one priority. we take any concern about compliance and conformity very seriously. the company has 30 days to respond to the faa. now, this effects the 777 model. one of the world's most popular long distance jets. boeing is also dealing with a string of issues in another model, the dream liner 787, just today united airlines reports it found a pinched wire on one of its jets. investigators say that's the issue that may have sparked a fire in another jet in london earlier this month. what's more, the airways took a different dream liner out of service because of some unnamed but minor technical issue. and india's aviation regulator reports that it's investigating a faulty oven on another 787. there is another potentia

>> the f.a.a. advises people to sit as close as possible to exits and not to sleep during take off and landing. >> happening today the national transportation safety board is sending a team of investigators to the site of a deadly plane crash in alaska. all ten were killed when the small plane went down yesterday at the airport 75 miles from anchorage. authorities say the air take was fully engulfed in flames before firefighters could get to it. there are reports the plane crashed while taking off. investigators are working to confirm that much of the identities of the victims are fought released. >> police in canada believe they will find more bodies as a derailed train carrying crude oil burns. the train derailed this weekend after a series of explosions and fire followed killing at least file people and destroying much of the downtown area. the cars became uncoupled from the train's engine. >> hundreds of thousands of pentagon workers are forced to take extra time off this summer, starting today

yesterday, the f.a.a. announced seven airports in our state would receive a total of $4.8 million from the f.a.a. for infrastructure upgrades, and that's part of what this bill is about. some of these were runway rehabilitations, some were new lighting systems, some may have been drainage improvements. these not only promote safety and certainly they make air travel safer in this country and that's extremely important, but also they are a way to spur economic activity. it's a great way to reinvest federal tax dollars in to my state and into the other 49 states to create jobs. let me just give arkansas as an example of this. in arkansas, -- and i know that we're only about 1% of the population, so you can kind of do the math here, but in arkansas, commercial and general aviation airports actually support 29,000 jobs in our state and contribute to $2.5 billion every year in economic activity. in our airports are important, but it is actually only a piece of the puzzle. we need to remember that we have other

and the answer is government regulations. the f.a.a. instituted regulations mandating stronger seats, mandating that the interior of aircraft be more fire retardant and that they not emit toxic gases when ignited. these are steps that have saved lives. it's nice to see it. it was a horrendous event but 20 years ago the death toll would have been much greater. >> woodruff: peter goelz, thank you very much. >> thank you. >> ifill: coming up, we examine the weekend's other transportation disaster; the fiery train crash in canada; also, egypt's deadly clashes; china's cyber spying and novelist colum mccann. but first, with the other news of the day. here's hari sreenivasan. >> sreenivasan: another fatal air crash was under investigation today in alaska. an air taxi went down sunday at a small airport, killing all ten people on board. the plane apparently was taking off, about 75 miles southwest of anchorage, when it crashed and exploded into flames. there was no immediate word on the cause. the man who leaked details of u.s. government surv

the plane safely came to a stop and no injuries reported. the f.a.a. is investigating. of course we are getting information now that injuries were reported minor as you mentioned possible neck and back injuries. the woman that i just described the mother who was in tears apparently hurt her leg when she was coming down the slide. also heard some reports of some injured ankles. 10 aided passengers. four treated on the scene. six we have been told taken to the hospital for observation. that is coming to us from from the port authority tonight. news conference coming up just a few moments from the airport. can you see behind me these are some of the passengers that have been brought down from the bus. we were told that they were taken off of the plane. on to a bus, observed by medical staff and now we're coming here, filling out paperwork trying to get their bags and get home. harris? >> harris: as the news breaks out there with the news conference we may come back to you. laura ingle. thank you very much. it is monsoon system in the country. punishing amount of rain. floo

the f.a.a. says that shooting at drones can result in heavy fines and even jail time. so much for directing traffic. more like causing it check out these two traffic cops brawling in the middle of a busy street during rush hour. the two women were hired to help clear up traffic in china. the fight lasted a minute and both were fired on the spot. no word yet on what you see with ad the fisticuffs. look at that one lady just walks by no big deal. she doesn't even look. >> well,. >> let's talk about u.s. spy agencies this morning. they get the green light to continue gathering millions of phone records. the top secret foreign intelligence surveillance court renewed the court order on friday. but in a surprise move, it let everyone know they were doing it for the first time. elizabeth prann is live in washington for the latest details on this. >> you are right. good morning. this was some of the program that was one of the classified counter terrorism programs made public by former national security

the f.a.a. says the two planes were less than two miles away from one another. >>> unprecedented chance encounter for president obama and president bush all the way in tanzania. they came together to lay a wreath for the embassy bombings. they met with survivors of that attack. the meeting was not planned initially. president obama was wrapping up a tour of africa and the bush family hosting a summit on african women. those are your headlines this morning. >>brian: let's talk about egypt. it turns out when president morsi was elected in elections we believe were on the up and up, there was going to be an injection of muslim brotherhood leadership into the arab world. people were predicting this was the beginning of the long talked about caliphate in the region. things have changed. the people of egypt want this thing called quality of life. they didn't like islamic laws being implemented. they didn't like the fact the economy was in the toilet, education was nonexistent and tourism insreubl. now

it's victimized those who are ill, and yet we continue to piece by piece fixing the f.a.a. problem but not addressing the 70,000 children that are suffering and losing seats in head start. i remember as the head start seats were being lost fathers crying when they were told by the head start facility that their child would no longer have a seat. it seems sad that we would cut head start or disaster aid by $1 billion because we have head start. the department of transportation, $1.9 billion when many of us know those are the basic reasons for job creation is building america's infrastructure. we have yet as we plot along with sequester, as see we good public workers not being able to work -- and might i just say, let me thank our own staff, which gets condemned all the time. you work for a u.s. member of congress, and every day our staff fights to help some constituent keep their house from being foreclosed on or keep a medicare recipient continuing to get their benefits or veterans and yet we're furloughing them. we're cutting people who are mere workers that are working fo
