The aircraft was a Maxjet 767-200 after it landed on 13L i believe. I was listening to Live ATC. It was a very short fire as it was put out quickly.
What was the cause?
ems, do you know which FDNY units responded?
No just got the notification. Chances are with a second alarm assignment the first due three engines, 2 ladders, battalion chief, Res4cue, Jamaica Busses, EMS Patrol Boss and SOD bosses.
