GTAA reported 297 pass on board, 14 minor injuries. Aparently all pass got out before the fire broke out.
Not wanting to speculate - but many news people are saying it was hit by lightning and then went off runway.
Now I don't believe that but - IF an A340 was hit by lighting - I would imagine that you would still be able to operate all major systems. Could a 340 driver tell me what a worst case lightning strike would do? (What systems would you lose)
