Looks like this aircraft is done for. It was a fairly new plane too. A330-300

Who knows. Remember BA B777 in Las Vegas? It is back in service.

I just watched an "Air Disaster" show on the Smithsonian Channel yesterday about that China Air 737 that caught fire while parked at the gate. Burned it right to the ground.

Maybe a recalled 15" MacBook Pro in the cargo hold that hasn't been updated.
Would be interesting to know if they deployed the cargo fire suppression bottles.

Looks like they did empty the cargo fire bottles: http://avherald.com/h?article=4cc111cc&opt=0
