Boeing is thinking “thank goodness this time it was an airbus”. Glad everyone is ok!

What is happening in aviation travel today and these planes? I can hear the flight attendant briefing passengers on the evacuation slide at the rear of the plane "now remember how you used to go down the slide in elementary school?" lol

Good job everyone was able to get off the plane with their carryon luggage

1 QUESTION.. WHERES THE FIRE DEPARTMENT

[@barryferrell8545]

Before that...why are why arent the ground crew using a fire extinguisher?? They are usually all over the tarmac!

[@carllehmann1996]

just wonder if anyone on the ground has heard of a fire exstinguisher . seems that could have been attacked from the ground quite quickly ???

[@edeuss]

I believe it was an electric fire when they plugged in something to the plane.

Amazingly (1) nobody called the fire trucks (2) passenger evacuation didn't start for a long time
