RAAF Growler runway fire report released

Some detail from OzBC here on what happened when a RAAF Growler engine shat itself during the takeoff roll at Nellis in January.
RAAF warplane's engine 'destroyed itself' during attempted take-off, resulting in $120 million fire - Politics - ABC News (Australian Broadcasting Corporation)
Hope that's not geoblocked for those of you elsewhere.
Props to the drivers - sounded like a very nasty situation.
