On 4-23-24 just horrible.
Preliminary report.
I would amend your post to say "could have set down on that ice ASAP". I'm not sure it was possible, considering the video, there wasn't that much time between "we have to return" vs the inflight separation of part of the wing.Yeah it would have been nice if at the first sign of a problem they would have set down on that ice asap, slip the heck out of it to get there.
Seems like fires on planes can be like an engine out on take off, don't try to return to the airport, as it could go down long before you get there.
If it was the same fuel tank deal I wonder what caused it in the first place? I'm sure they have a stainless steel fire wall behind the engine,
and real stupid design if there is a fuel tank just behind the engine.
I wouldn’t be entering any holds…. Incident: India A321 at Delhi on May 17th 2024, suspected fire in air conditioning
