744 fire.

Just saw the news with images of the 744 with some flames coming out of the engines.

The footage began, not as the flames were noticed, but right from the aircraft rolling on the runway to beyond airborne. Here the flames were then noticed.

Let's take a step back for a minute. Qantas have a good case here I think Here is some bloke, filming the ground roll, rotation, etc etc, however, he is not adhearing to Qantas' safety requirements of being a passenger onboard the aircraft. Whatever happened to, "please ensure all electrical equipment onboard the aircraft, is now switched off"?

Just my fiddy cents.
