1:43: That’s when the tail of the plane gave up on life. [Look at the cockpit during the video and you can see the pilots climbing out just as the plane spontaneously combusts.

Look at all the black shit coming out of the windows, but ONLY the windows over the wing. People always like a seat near the wing, but they wouldnt if they knew that the wings are just glorified fuel tanks that are always the first to go.

I think that the fire fighter in the airport have very low reaction and not professional .If the fire fighter would come earlier the aircraft was not ruined like that.
