China Airlines Boeing 737-800 jet

A China Airlines Boeing 737-800 jet exploded into flames at Okinawa airport in Japan after arrving from Taiwan, but all 165 people (157 passengers and 8 crew members) could escape without being injured.

“After the plane landed, there were flames, and I heard explosions a few times then saw black smoke,” airport worker Hideaki Oyadomari told national broadcaster NHK. “We felt the hot air coming our way.”

Passenegers noticed flames around the engine on the left side after landing, while the plane taxied to the gate.
The cause of the fire, which reportedly began in one of the engines, was unknown. Japan’s National Police Agency said terrorism was not suspected. “The plane landed safely so we are still checking why there was a fire,” said Sun Hung-wen, spokesman of China Airlines.

Passengers could leave the aircraft using emergency slides before the leaking engine exploded and flames covered the whole aircraft. The pilot reportedly escaped from the cockpit using a rope.
