First photographs from inside wrecked San Francisco plane

The first images from inside the stricken Asiana Airlines Flight 214 that crashed at San Francisco's airport on Saturday were released today by the U.S. National Transportation Safety Board - as it emerged the pilot was on his maiden training flight and had only 43 hours experience at the controls of a Boeing 777. The chilling photographs of seats slammed out of their rivets and oxygen masks dangling from the overhead compartments give some indication of the terror that the 307 passengers and crew experienced as the plane's botched landing killed two and injured 181 people.

SAN FRANCISCO, CA - JULY 06: A Boeing 777 airplane lies burned on the runway after it crash landed at San Francisco International Airport July 6, 2013 in San Francisco, California. An Asiana Airlines passenger aircraft coming from Seoul, South Korea crashed while landing.

The Asiana Airlines Boeing 777 that crashed at San Francisco's airport on Saturday was traveling "significantly below" its intended speed and its crew tried to abort the landing just seconds before it hit the seawall in front of the runway, the U.S. National Transportation Safety Board said on Sunday.
