Echo chambers are boring and don't contribute much to deeper thinking and understanding!
from the video it seems like the firefighters just let the plane burn down, why didnt they lather it with foam after everyone was evacuated?
Also, how did it not blow up? Im assuming there wasnt really time to dump fuel… how does that work
Was a landing, not much fuel left.
Thats standard? It was an a350 i believe it was a domestic flight so there could have been a lot of fuel on that plane
