Investigators are looking at an emergency locator transmitter.... as the possible cause of the fire '.... according to a source familiar with the probe.
The transmitter uses a lithium manganese battery, said the source,
If this is confirmed and the battery was starting point then it is truly becoming a nightmare, and not only for Boeing and this perticular type.
