Skynews and others are wrong in stating that smoke is coming from the right engine, that is fuel coming out. Which means a rupture in the fuel feed lines.

Feathers do not stay on top of an engine with airspeeds that high, so no, that`s not a feather on the left engine.

The right engine was not on fire when they landed, so the fire services did not put the fire out as stated in the media. They prevented it from setting alight.
