No lessons learned from Manchester then!!! (yes, I know, it was an aborted take-off, but it's the same principle). Aircraft should stop as quickly as possible and evacuate immediately. To hell with blocking the runway. What price a life?
Today 01:08
Considering it was am EMB190 I doubt that the aircraft spent much time in rollout on the runway. I suspect that the decision to evacuate was made within seconds of assessing that there was a fire.
