No fire?
Parking plane crashes into VIP lounge, killing passenger No sign of any fire in either still images or video of the aftermath (Sky News has some video). In the story above, there is an image showing that the nose gear appears to have collapsed prior to impact with the structure. Could retracting the nose gear on purpose have been an action taken by the pilot to avert impact? Video here YouTube - Plane crash - Kigali Rwanda, Africa
