Thumbs down Media - SNAFU

BBC reporting witnesses saying that: "flames were coming out from the wing".

And concluding that this: "points to massive engine failure".

2 sentences earlier they report that the plane was a BAC 1-11.

Conclusion
Nobody has done their home work and that its all speculation, as the BAC's engines are like those of the DC9 - MD80 at the back of the fuselage

Sad - RIP
