Oh looking at the photos, the aircraft would have already turned and would be backtracking
Just a knowledge gaining question.
Would the flaps normally be retracted after landing anyway? Bearing in mind if RWY 10 was in use it is a long backtrack/taxi
I would assume that as the fire service were inspecting near the engine, one or both would have been shut down, possibly also the APU.
Can the flaps be extended with no engine/APU power?
So if the answer is such, would it make sense to restart an engine to extend the flaps in an emergency?
