M 609, seems you could be right unfortunately, here are some comments from pax, google translate:

- It was scary. When we first saw smoke we stood up, but the flight attendants asked us to sit. Only when we actually saw flames , they left the plane immediately - before everyone else, she says.

- I was pretty far ahead of the plane, and saw that the door to the cockpit was closed. Suddenly door opened and the pilots running out of there, while thick smoke billowed out from the door. Then all disappeared, flight attendants as well, they just escaped from the plane, said a shaken Kveli Selvik to VG Nett.

Now, this is hearsay from panicked passengers so far, and has to be investigated, but it does´t sound good
