slide deployment

Just to add that the pax used the emgency slides. Wonderful that no-one was injured, but if the engine was "in flames", maybe it got a bit singed too ?
Ciao Ou Trek Donkie, I just wanted to say that probably the captain gave orders not to open the doors and deploy the slides on the side of the plane where the engine was on fire.
It is usually the case on premeditated emergency landings, during the so often called "NITS" briefing the captain gives specific instructions to the cabin crew if and how evacuate the passengers, and what exits to use.

Io sono come te, non mi piace l'odore di gomma bruciata!!!!
