Early images showed smoke rising from 'beyond' the otherwise intact fuselage.

Fire seems to have been confined to the roof of the fuselage and not immediately after impact - presumably initiated by the starboard engine (if, indeed, the engine on the starboard side of the crash site was the starboard engine, as seems likely).

No fire in the wings.

How quickly did the firefighters arrive?
