All 379 people on board, including 12 Australians, managed to evacuate safely within a matter of minutes before the aircraft broke into two and was engulfed by fire.
Investigators in Japan are trying to work out why a coast guard plane was on the runway when the Airbus had been cleared to land at Haneda Airport.
