Not so Smart phones (again)
Another lucky escape with a pallet load of mobile phones burning itself out on the apron at HKG yesterday. Somewhat alarmingly no sign of a a fire service in the 3-minute video while two adjacent pallets also ignited and handlers standing around chuckling? The potential for further disaster on the ground or after loading is horrendous. Clearly we haven't learned much after losing UPS and MAS .....
