    it amazes me to see people with their luggage. Unreal.

    I always think it must be so awkward to be the pilots when something happens to a plane that isn't there fault. "Uh yeah so we landed and the plane caught on fire. Not really sure what happened there. Sorry."
  • rear slide is an emergency emergency slide, usually a "last resort" slide. the tail cone is popped to allow the slide to be inflated, if the need arises.

    I’m amazed to see the People using the Rear Exit of the MD-82-3. Aka the tail cone
  • @flyguille
    Wow is that a feature? the eyection of that tail part out of the aircraft?
  • @yosh1456
    Did you see the plane in the background?

    I don't understand why firemen attack the engine when it's a brake fire?!
  • @bobbypaluga4346
    For some reason there is nothing in the ASN regarding any incident with a Delta or DC-9 or MD-80 aircraft at Atlanta, that comes close to this fire. There was a #1 engine explosion in the mid-90's that killed two people seated near the front part of the engine. something is fishy here. Could it be that the aircraft on fire was really a L-1011

    "Why would you defend allowing others to endanger my life with their addictions?" thats a quote from your comment, get some help.

    Who the fuck stands around leisurely and watches their plane catch fire, Fucks sake. Ahahaha
  • @ThePilotman329
    If you are / were flying to CPH with SAS, then it would either have been in a MD82 or MD87. Iberia got rid of their MDs for years now, so that must have been some time ago...
  • @psychfred
    Thank you for your comment. I was thinking exactly the same thing. Some people value their own life and their iPhone and iLuggage over others'.

    @musicalaviator if you're going to be the spelling police, "spelt" should be "spelled" unless you're referring to some kind of wheat.

    Dear Fire Man .. How does a Brake fire need to have the jet engine put out ..when it was so blindingly clear coming from the main assembly ..
  • @capi1lope
    Hard to say for sure, but it looked like the right main landing gear.
  • @SuperMichael871
    perfect example as to why we tell you to put your window shutter UP for take off and landing.. so WE can all see outside to see if its SAFE to exit on that side of the plane. we cant see that if you have your shutters down. i thought that would have been obvious..
