Magplug, Your surely kidding right ? Are you really going to sit there and wait for the flames to die down ?
Not me sunshine.
In my humble opinion and of what
little I know of this incident I'd say the crew acted correctly.
The BAe 146/RJ does not have a history of fire detectors going off without a damn good reason. In fact I seem to remember someone from BAe recommending me to treat every fire warning as serious because of this.
Well done crew - oh and I if anyone's wondering I don't work for BA.
