    Yep; that one's finished. Second 735 that CO has lost in a runway incident in bad weather (one on arrival somewhere in Mexico back in the late 90s). Thankfully, no one was killed in either.

    I see a running trend of people evacuating crashed aircraft with zero fatalities. I like it. Glad everyone's ok.

    I have a photo of this aircraft. In fact, I just sold the photo to a magazine this month.

    For a fire....I need no burns. Also, where is everyone? I'm surprised the plane is all alone.

    Ouch... Glad no one was killed! At least no one had to slide all the way down the slides to get out!

    I find it amazing that it came to a stop just a couple of hundred yards away from one of the airport fire stations. (In fact I think I saw somewhere that it almost hit the station!) I suppose the evacuation was helped by a quick response from the ARFF guys.

    They probably opened the doors of the ARFF and yelled "go, go go, oh, sh**, backup, backup, backup!!!

    Frightening ATC audio...controller sees firefighters going the wrong direction even though the plane ended up right next to the firehouse.

    Ladies and gentlemen, this is your captain speaking. We have a small problem.
    All four engines have stopped. We are doing our damnedest to get them under control.
    I trust you are not in too much distress. —Captain Eric Moody, British Airways Flight 9

    that's pretty embarassing. i wonder why the OPS/ARFF vehicles were on the TWR and not GND frequency.
    it is mathematically impossible for either hummingbirds, or helicopters to fly. fortunately, neither are aware of this.

    Visibility was very poor, and I understand the ARFF house had doors on multiple sides. Either way, pretty wild audio there.

    I've heard nothing on the cause of this. Anyone know?

    From the video Gotham posted those are the first cabin shots I had seen, more intact and less fire damage than I would have expected.

    My compliments to the controller for his proffesionalism.
