John,

Spaz,

Thanks for the slomo - I think you've nailed it. Looks very much like steam plus lights.

The clincher for me is the lack of reaction of the flight deck crew - any fire on a flight deck...

KenV,

Thanks for coming back - perhaps I can help a bit more.

Spaz,

Good post. Thanks - I was quoting sustained G as I felt that it was the more relevant parameter.

KenV,

F-35C - 5

Note that the F-35C figure...
