Pete Muntean: American Airlines that Caught on Fire Landed Safely
‘An engine caught fire and passengers evacuated the aircraft using slides’
EXCERPT:
MUNTEAN: “Well, just generally, I mean, it's much thicker than the gray smoke. It looks to me like maybe the fire crews got there, and were putting it out, while we're seeing some of this gray smoke imagery. The black smoke is usually the worst possible sign, just because it's much more thick, and there, it seems to be actively burning. But let's just reset here on what the FAA tells us. American Airlines Flight 1006 landed safely at Denver International Airport, 05:15 local time. That's 05:15 Mountain Time, 07:15 on the East Coast, on Thursday.”
