Seriously, ALL of the images in that "article" are available elsewhere, with far less "journalistic license" surrounding their publication.
I think you'll find that applies to almost all news media today, in that it's bought/fed from Reuters, UPI, etc. Most of the aviation related material in cases like this comes from sources like the NTSB & JTSB.

One issue that crops up very regularly in PPRuNe is the standard of reporting when it comes to anything aviation related, especially incidents or accidents. If you don't live in the UK, maybe it doesn't surprise you when a tabloid newspaper produces a largely factual report on what (to the general public, at least) is a fairly technical issue. We who inhabit this small, damp island have to re-read it several times to confirm that it doesn't mention politicians' misdemeanours, football or breasts in the narrative.

Now back to batteries...
