I would love to hear any comments on the CFR response. What a bunch of dingbats! It seems like their equipment is not working while the plane burns to a crisp. No need to get the recorders...I'm sure some "general" investigator knew the cause a few minutes later while talking to the media.
I'm really glad that no one was trapped or injured and unable to escape the wreckage. They would have surely burnt to a crisp. Just goes to show how quickly a plane can burn to a pile of smoldering molten metal.
On another note, I don't think I'll be flying on a russian jet anytime soon. I don't know if it the manufacturing/maintenance/training, but they crash more often than windows. How about that late abort? Not faulting the crew, maybe they felt the plane wouldn't fly. Is it me or does it look like the plane actually gets airborne and then touches down shortly after? I thought I saw tire smoke, then again it could be the wheels locking up in an attempt to stop the beast. Do those things have anti-lock brakes?? Yikes.
