I donˋt think he had 1 Minute time to figure out what was going on.
Guess there were a few thuds when No2 startet do disintegrate, shortly after that followed by a Fire warning.
While shuting down No2 and transmitting a Mayday (with fire you should really start looking for a place to land, cause you donˋt know, wether you get it extinguished or not), No1 also failed on him.
Would be really interesting to have a look into the recorded data.
