Scary footage this morning out of Japan..

A China Airlines Boeing 737-800 ( a pretty new plane) landed this morning in Okinawa airport in Japan with an engine fire. Seconds after everybody evacuates, it explodes.

Story

Video can be found on ABC News homepage, in the Video Player in the top right of the screen. Click on "i-CAUGHT: Jet Catches Fire" to watch the evacuation and explosion.

In this case, NOT made in China, but maintained in China! China's starting to get the same rap Japan did in the 50's & 60's.
